Reb, yep every bit helps with the process. I'm a semi-retired neonatolgist. Currently do locums, travel around the country and relieve other neonatolgists when they need time off. Work about a week every 4 to 6 weeks. I've always been interested in geneology/history research but since I got out of full time practice 3 years ago, I've really been able to devote a great deal of time to the endeavor. Have traced both sides of my family back to original American emigrants, one 1617 (not a yankee in the bunch) and the other 1650's (about 75% yankee, 25% reb). Though I'm originally from Louisiana, many of my ancestors came from Virginia and Maryland, thus it's easy for me to obtain historical records and visit local libraries. Also, since I've done medical research and continue to study in my specialty, I'm fairly adept in the investigation mode. Also, I was a history minor in college.
