The Searing Family Blog

 

 Time for a catch up on Searing family members making news from all over the internet.  See or follow dansearingSr on Twitter for the actual entries, and see #searing for even more information.  Any errors, people missed, or selections entirely my fault.  Any suggestions or comments to my attention through the blog or dansr@searingfamily.com.

ATTN: Searings!  there is a wonderful musical instrument by Burge Searing on eBay for only another day….search for:Earl Burge Searing Signed Numbered Hammered Dulcimer    So far the price is pretty reasonable.  See blog.searingfamily.com for more details on Earl Searing.  These hand made instruments don’t come up very often.   I am NOT the seller…:).  But it would be great to have a Searing own this item.

Ouch…a whole month without an entry!  I wondered about that and sat down to do a quick entry so I would have a July archive entry, but got sidetracked.  Perhaps that’s the story of July 2010.  Not that I haven’t accumulated material for entry:  eBay results and postings, lots of entries on health care by our Adam Searing, some notes about Searing athletes, some Facebook and Twitter entries.  But, hey, it’s summer, it’s HOT out here in the East, lots of other things to think about besides Searings on the internet.  But now it’s August…the Dog Days (of searing heat? perfect for searing food on the grill? cf my page on Searing as a Part of Speech).  Time to catalog some of my saved entries and share them with you.

In follow up to my May 24 entry,  re our blog being listed in Geneabloggers    http://www.geneabloggers.com/   special mention was made of the Searing Family Blog in the list of new genealogy blogs at  http://www.geneabloggers.com/genealogy-blogs-29-2010/.   Thank you very much Thomas MacEntee, who authors High-Definition Genealogy (see his comment to the May 24th entry below)….again, this is a direct result of exploring Twitter.  Tom is ‘hidefgen’ and there are lots of other genealogy folks on Twitter, most of whom I have not had a chance to explore.  But I certainly can recommend Tom.  I continue to believe that Twitter is a very young resource whose possibilities we have yet to even start exploiting.  Our mention in Geneabloggers has already resulted in a nice note from Sand Dune Books about their offerings.  (Google for their info)   I realize there may be more advertising contacts than Searing information from these mentions, but ‘bring’em on’.  I am happy with any additional word on the blog.

Remember!  A fitting word and theme for our Americans in military service to their country – us – on this Memorial Day, 2010.   Time and again over the years it’s clear that regardless of our political views, we support our troops.  More eloquent writers than myself have expressed that viewpoint….  So I add my own “Remember!”  in honor of those who have served.   But…I would like to add some genealogical touches in the coming few weeks by adding information to my Searings in the Military section, and making a list of past and present Searings who have/are serving.  See that section for additional information.

Today I added this blog to the list available on Geneabloggers:   http://www.geneabloggers.com/This is a resource I have followed on Twitter for a while.  They have a index for finding family names.  Unfortunately ‘Searing‘ doesn’t come up much, but perhaps that will change as more of you explore this resource.  And..please start your own blog for your branch of the Searing family….we need more exposure!!  Join in the fun!  Geneabloggers has lots of resources and activities, and they are highly integrated into other social network sites.  More info can be found on the home page linked above.  As I have a chance to explore what they offer I will put more information on here.
