Ancestry Roads#Ancestry has a table with really cool high quality #stickers. Germany, England, Italy, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, were grabbed up extremely quick. Possibly an indication of attendees that have ancestors from those areas.
HistorySheWrote@AncestryRoads How cool is that! I hope you got the ones you wanted.
@bethroots It was tricky because my ancestors have been in America forever. But I thought this was a great way to show pride for our ancestors.
I am going back and getting the Americas one.
@AncestryRoads I would be looking for all those popular ones, unfortunately. But that's an interesting take about forever. That made me think about how Germany wasn't yet a country when my ancestors left. There have been so many shifting borders, which was discussed in one of the sessions yesterday.
Betsy Roberts Miller ⁂I would be interested to know if they have one for Savoy / Savoie - my "French" GGF had an older half-brother that was born before it was officially folded into France.
A kind person on the old French chat at #FamilySearch offered to look up records for non-French persons. I asked for both half-brothers because the US records weren't consistent for their mother's maiden name. And within a 5-year span they had different types of birth records, which my #genealogy angel explained to me.
@BRMiller @bethroots I didn't see anything for France areas.
But many stickers were already gone.
Thanks for checking - I just thought I'd ask after seeing Quebec called out separately.
Not surprised that a lot are gone, or that France may not have for separate areas - but Savoy played a significant part in European history (before the French, anyway).
Thanks again!
@AncestryRoads @BRMiller I'm surprised that Mexico is not on the list of "outs".
@bethroots @BRMiller I am too. I do not know if they ordered the same quanity for each sticker though. They have been popular and really great quality.
