I have been pleasantly sidetracked the last couple of weeks. Due to a new DNA match on Ancestry I have been corresponding with a newly found second cousin. We are related through the William Carroll Green Breshears line.
This past Saturday we were able to meet. Julia, my second cousin and her parents (her mother is my first cousin once removed) met with my sister and myself and we visited the cemeteries in the Breshears valley of Missouri. We were also able to meet up with some other Breshears cousins (from the state of Oregon) while we were there. They were vacationing with other relatives here in Missouri. It was a beautiful day for our outing and we were able to visit for some time.
In preparation for the outing I have been working on the John F and Julia J Button Breshears family this past week. This was the line that cousin Julia came from. I tried to put as much information together for her in the time that was available. I have updated my Ancestry working tree and matched with Family Search. Much work on this family is still needed in Family Search.
