As you may recall, we originally established this site because we were looking for a place where our family members could gather to learn of their family history. At that time, no such place existed for the Armstrong families of Ireland & New Zealand. Thanks to all of your comments & contributions, we continue to make great progress in our research.
I've also become more active in Facebook (Mark Robertshaw-Utah) in the last few years, meeting new family members who kindly shared old photos & information for the rest of the family to enjoy. My feelings are that Family History is most exciting when you have other family members to share it with. Thank you for sharing!
Some of you may have noticed that I haven't posted many new updates here in the last six months; I continue to receive comments from those visiting our site, but not a lot of new information to update our records. So, I've been spending more of my time looking for new information myself. I'm pleased to announce I'll be posting new findings on our Blog within the next few weeks so stay tuned in.
I also continue adding new information to FamilySearch.org which is one of the world's largest Family History resources. Anyone can open a free account & share info, photos, stories, & much more with others from around the world. If you haven't visited this site yet, I hope you will today.
New Zealand Armstrong Families also need to watch for Reunion Updates for our 2017 Armstrong Reunion!
Signing off for now...
