Gifting MySelf

So, I have wanted a membership to Ancestry.com but with no job, and only one parent working, money is being spent conservatively.. so for my birthday, I bought a 6 month membership to Ancestry.  And for me, this has been a wonderful gift.  And my boyfriend is pleased that I'm getting so much use out of the membership. 

I have been adding census records, military records, and anything that they have to the already 1500 plus members in my family tree.  Very exciting stuff. 

I've been meeting distant relatives online, and working with them, sharing photos, today I got a photo of a GGGGrandfather, and it was from his service during the War Between the States.  I hope to look more into that part of his history, due to I want to determine which side he was on, where he was stationed, etc.
