Varner cousins of California and Nevada contacted

November was an exceptionally busy month for me.  A nephews wedding, Thanksgiving, grand kids birthdays, grandsons visit and so on.  Even though I'm now retired there still doesn't seem to be enough time to do everything on my To-Do list.

It was a very rewarding month for my family history research.  Thanks to Doug Wallace I now have much more information on my two uncles, William Earl (Billy) and James Gilbert (Buddy) Varner,  families in California and Nevada.  The tree is growing larger.  I have been in contact with my cousin Howard.  It is good to finally "meet" the family there.

Now that I know the names and places to look for gathering the source documentation is not such a challenge. For the most part I've been able to find what I'm looking for on Ancestry, find-a-grave, the SSDI and California death records.

I am planning a visit to Teays Chapel and Clinton Memory Gardens cemetery tomorrow (Monday, Dec. 5, 2011.  I have 8 photo requests on Find A Grave that I need to take care of.  Hopefully the weather will clear off so that I can get some decent pictures.
