Organization Day

I received ten pages of deeds-- over the weekend -- from the Suffolk County Registry of Deeds in Massachusetts – pertaining to Edward Higgins and Edward Barry -- so I will begin abstracting those today.  I don’t expect to find a lot of new information, but it will be fun going through them.

I will also be revising my research plans for Cornelius Scanlon as well as the Higgins and Barry families -- in order to find an answer to the all-consuming question of whether or not Annie Carrigan is related to John Higgins.

My current objective is still to find birth locations for all known siblings of John and Edward Higgins, and my research plans will focus on that. 

So today is a step back day – an organization day -- to take a look at where I am and what direct and indirect evidence I have and where I need to head.
