Megan Smolenyak x2





This past week end I had an opportunity to sit down and spend some time with author
Megan Smolenyak x2. I typed in x2, and if you look carefully at the author's last name on the cover of the book, the last name has the squared symbol.

Megan's maiden name and married name are the same, no relation.

I have reviewed Megan's book on Amazon.com and our Genealogical Society references the book very often.

So you can only imagine how absolutely thrilled I was when Megan personalized an autographed copy for me.



It reads:
Dear Ruth,
Genealogy truly is
Ruthless without you!
Thank you for your enthusiasm
and kind words!
Megan Smolenyak (squared sign)


Susi Pentico, a true genealogy angel, stopped by about this time. Susi is one of those very special ladies that you can truly count upon to help a friend. I am so glad I can call her friend. Susi stopped by, explaining I had the book and donated the book to the society as a raffle prize at a recent CVGS seminar. So why was I receiving another book?



This personalized copy will not be donated. It will be left with a copy of this blog to be found in my genealogy legacy. Are you listening, family???
