Periodically I check Chris Dunham's Genealogy Blog Finder What's New page to see if there are any new blogs that look interesting to me.
This morning, I was impressed with But Now I'm Found, subtitled "Genealogy Blog in Black and White" written by jenuinely. Not that it really matters, but she also happens to be a Hoosier; a native of Gary, Indiana.
The blog is new for her, started in January this year, but her interest in and enthusiasm for genealogy goes back ten years. Her posts are well-written and provide insight into the unique problems associated with researching African-American slave ancestors.
Her website Say My Name chronicles the story of some of her family and the places where they lived. I haven't read all the pages on her site, yet, but plan to return to finish reading them all. It is very interesting and, for me, provides a view into yet another aspect of this world of ours.

The ability to comment has been turned off for all blog posts effective 21 May 2018. Kinexxions has been inactive for more than two years and most comments have come to me directly via email from readers but more than a few were simply spam. My desire is to keep the blog available to the public since there is value in what has been published, particularly posts dealing with family history.
I am still extremely interested in hearing from readers who might be related and have questions or simply want contact with a distant cousin. Please contact me directly via email at kinexxions@gmail.com
This action is also being taken partially due to the General Data Protection Regulation aka "GDPR" going into effect on 25 May 2018. Even though it is a regulation implemented by the European Union that primarily affects businesses and corporations, it governs how data about people can be used. That includes comments left on blog posts, thus the ability to comment is no longer available.
