I just read a blog post about "completing family trees." Trust me, it never happens! You may reach a brick wall, like finding little or no information on an ancestor, have missing details on a female ancestor [maiden name missing, birth or death dates, etc.], find conflicting or undocumented information on ancestors. All these may force you to stop researching for awhile, but you are not done!
New books and records are constantly being digitized and made available on various genealogy sites [Ancestry, Family Search, World Vital Records, Find My Past, My Heritage, etc.]
Updated records are being published in books and can be found in libraries.
Family trees are being uploaded on numerous sites, many of them well documented.
Searching the websites, trees, and books available needs to be done frequently. That family tree always has a twig or two missing leaves.
You may think you are done, or you may decide to quit researching, but you are never done!
Posts may be few and far between for a month or so due to other commitments. Eventually posts will return somewhat regularly as updates are completed or words of wisdom flow onto the page.😊
