Pieces Are Slowly Falling Into Place

The Stitt line has kept me up many a nights trying to figure out better research techniques and combing through information to see if I have overlooked anything. I can finally say that the pieces are slowly coming together. I am excited at all the possibilities of getting know more about this line and connecting and building long lasting relationships with family. Grandma Pebaleader, I spoke with one of your great granddaughter and granddaughter this morning. Hopefully we all will be able to meet the first of the upcoming year. Through all of this I can't wait to be able to stitch together my genetic quilt with all of its uniqueness.

What is She Trying to Tell Me?

Have you ever just conducted a random search that yielded some information? This is exactly what I did  about 20 minutes ago. Although the information gave me a piece of the puzzle, it also gave me more questions. On top of that I now must revisit some information that I recently confirmed. I know that my grandma Pebaleader Kellum is trying to tell me something, but I don't quite know what it is. I must turn to my research gurus to ensure that I am looking at all perspectives without any blinders. The one thing I know for sure, is that my grandmother is guiding me to my grandfather, Robert Willie Stitt Sr. At this time, I must be still and wait for my grandmother Pebaleader.

Where is Pebaleader?

Since the beginning on my journey to piece together my family history, my paternal grandfather's mother has always intrigued me. A woman with such a unique name as Pebaleader has to have a great story waiting to be revealed and embraced! Knowing the basic facts, I am still having difficulties locating her beyond the 1940 census. Where can she be? I know she is right around the corner because slowly additional information is unveiling itself. Grandma I am eagerly waiting to meet you.
