Geneology, I am doing it! My Geneology!

Meet the Watsons. (left to right) 

There's Dennis Daniel Watson (he's my cousin).

Then W. L Selby,   Dennis married  his sister, Alice.

Next: William Abb Parsons.  He married Dennis daughter, Ola Elgene. 

And, last but not least,   Dennis' own son, Foy Wallace Watson.  Foy? yes. Foy.

I guess they like their hats to shade their eyes. :)

Don't really know alot about them, yet I care about them....

'Cuz you see, we are family!

I like to think that my Dad is helping them know of the Gospel and the happiness that comes in being an eternal family.

I think he just might be doing that!

Henry B Erying (Hearts Bound Together Ensign  May 2005) said:

"Many of your deceased ancestors will have received a testimony that the message of the missionaries is true. (They need you to go to the temple to do their work in their behalf.)  That is why we are under obligation to find the names of our ancestors and ensure that they are offered by us what they cannot receive there without our help. 

I think of the faithful missionaries, (Jack Hilterbrand), standing there with those they have loved and taught, who are your ancestors.   Picture as I do the smile on the face of that missionary as you walk up to him and your ancestors whom he converted but COULD NOT BAPTIZE OR HAVE SEALED TO FAMILY UNTIL YOU CAME TO THE RESCUE. 

I do not know what the protocol will be, but I imagine arms thrown around your neck and tears of gratitude."

       Oh Daddy!  I will work on this side to find the names and do the work of those you are teaching over yonder there!

Oh Barb..I am way to fragile to handle this post in a proper mature manner...I cried like a little girl.
YES - this side AND yonder. Hope you have that big smile everyday, Dad.
