I didn't do anything with it until about two years ago after I retired and then received a used PC. My main sources are from living with most of these family members. Other sources are: SSDI, census, birth, marriage and death records from Georgia, Texas & Arkansas. And the LDS Family History Center, Lamar Co(TX) Genealogy Library and Texarkana, USA Genealogy Society.
