Summary of Ives Family History Blog
I started this blog on February 15, 2007 with this post Ives Family Blog Overview. I first did this summary on October 4, 2007 and this is just an update. I have put up a total of 231 posts so far. As I said then, I am writing about the descendents of William Ives, one of the founders of New Haven CT. It is not like a regular blog that posts on current events and does not go back and makes changes to prior posts. Rather it is an online draft history that I hope to continue to improve. I intend to continue to modify this document on an ongoing basis and welcome all comments, additions, and corrections. This includes going back and correcting material already posted when new evidence arrives.
I have now provided all the research that I have completed to date. There have been over 20,000 page views since I started with an average of 65 a day, 90 a day more recenlty. I have met a number of new relatives and learned new information about the Ives family. I will continue to make periodic updates through new posts and corrections to existing material. You suggestions are welcome.
You must be experiencing a wonderful sensation of satisfaction at all the work you've posted here. My congratulations!
Janice

How would you like to see your ancestor's stories and journals turned into a novel? I am a novelist that takes journals, stories, and personal accounts of family members and turns them into novels that can be shared and given at family reunions, firesides, or just kept as special reminders of those that are close to you.
