So, I’ve been working on a story. My #FamilyHistory fascination with #MigrationStories is personal. Watch for it, projectkin.substack.com/publish/post... And wouldn't you know it, they arrived in Fort Wayne, IN, exactly where I'm headed for #NGS26 in two weeks. #Genealogy isn't luck, it's work.

Such a fantastic conversation this afternoon with Lisa Maguire of @ancestory.bsky.social about how compelling our #Familystories of migration are when combined. See the full conversation at open.substack.com/pub/projectk...

We're about 20 minutes in right now and gosh, Rhonda Lauritzen never disappoints. So inspiring. "You can't steer a parked car." What a wonderful dose of encouragement. 🥹

#GenHour I knew @lisamag13.bsky.social would be the perfect person to explore a new series to share #FamilyHistory Migration Stories. 🧳 Join us in the livestream on Sunday (Monday in Asia/Pac) Here's the link to join from any web browser, no registration needed: open.substack.com/live-stream/...

Bravo, @helenpdrabble.bsky.social Congratulations. That's a tremendous accomplishment! 👏 You've opened important new insight into the lives of these poor children. #FamilyHistory #Genealogy #Storytelling

@kylabayang.bsky.social and I had a great time this afternoon with a #RootsTechRideAlong wrap-up just in time for the April 30th close of Relatives at RootsTech. A clip and link to the recording and notes. Also... it was just fun. #FamilyHistory #Genealogy open.substack.com/pub/projectk...

Okay, I'm smitten! Bring on 𞻰 the eels of #FamilyHistory!

Yesterday's Kathy's Corner program featured Kate Jacus, a preservation specialist from the Documentary Heritage and Preservation Services for the state of New York. Fascinating discussion. See it here: projectkin.substack.com/p/kathys-cor...

Great conversation with @yycphoto.bsky.social about conservation, archiving, provenance, triggers, and context. How are we sharing the stories forward? Watch the 30-minute recording at: open.substack.com/pub/projectk... #FamilyHistory #Genealogy #Storytelling #GenHour

Fun during @jennifer-jones.bsky.social's Speakers’ Corner for Projectkin. Our guests @janechapman.bsky.social and Lex Knowlton with insights about 19th c life in #NewZealand and #Australia. Watch it here, and enjoy the slang. #FamilyHistory #Genealogy projectkin.substack.com/p/speakers-c...

In Kathy’s Corner @Kathy Stone has engaged us in conversations about ephemera, the postcards, clippings and artifacts of those who’ve come before us. Now, get inspired by Times story about Lucy Sante, and her ephemera collage work. www.nytimes.com/2026/04/01/a... #FamilyHistory #Genealogy

Come see a work-in-progress, our first effort at a community #FamilyHistory magazine. All about our connection with to #AmericanHistory with #stories250 #Genealogy Submission deadline is June 30! open.substack.com/pub/projectk...

We put together collections of #FamilyHistory stories and our #genealogy records, but do we take the time to engage our loved ones in sharing their lives lived? Lori Olson White has a plan. (Join Projectkin on Apr 16 to hear more: Projectkin.org/2076) open.substack.com/pub/loriolso...

An ironic topic for One-Place Wednesday: #BirthrightCitizenship Setting aside the facts of the case, it’s a reminder of how family stories are carried and lessons every one of us can learn. #FamilyHistory #Genealogy #Storytelling #OnePlaceWednesday www.nytimes.com/2026/04/01/u...

In anticipation of a #SupremeCourt ruling on #birthrightcitizenship, The NYTimes has deployed its #Genealogy skills to dive into the #FamilyHistory of our nine Justices. Perhaps we're finally making the connection between who we are and what we think? Ya think? 🎁🔗 www.nytimes.com/2026/03/31/u...

What a fantastic story of community gathering together to commemorate their history and support the telling of family narratives. Mostly online, I'm in the #Berkeley flats. I'd love to help. I'm crafting a series of Migration Stories for the fall. A start? #FamilyHistory #Storytelling #Genealogy

Well... Aryn: I'm thinking about a series celebrating #Migration Stories for the second half of 2026. I'd love to hear your take on something like #Huguenot migrations or perhaps religious persecution-triggered migrations. 🤔 maybe we could consider collabs... #FamilyHistory #Genealogy #OnePlace

You won't want to miss this... and yes, Projectkin will play a role again this year. Stay tuned for details.

Ahead of our Kathy's Corner program this week, @yycphoto.bsky.social joined me for the preview this morning to talk about her special guest this week, Jane Chapman, @janechapman.bsky.social, who will share her treasure box of postcards. Link in the preview 👇 open.substack.com/pub/projectk...
