| Introduction | Though I have been researching my family genealogy for over a decade, it is only since the beginning of 2013 that I am giving genealogy blogging a try. I’ve created findingmydead.com to not only share my family’s history but to also share the genealogical resources I’ve found along this journey. My ancestors have called Pennsylvania home for over two-hundred years with many residing in the anthracite coal region of Northumberland, Schuylkill, and Columbia counties since the early 19th century. A few of the surnames in my family tree include Derk, Lynn, Nahodil, Strausser, and Wetzel. I am obsessed with learning more about my family’s education, relationships, religious beliefs, traditions, how life in the mines or in the fields affected the family, and the history of the areas they resided. |
