Who was Aaron A. Lowe?

I finally have some time this evening to do a little more looking around in my family history research.  Picking up from where I left off last time, which was looking at census records on my Horne line in Georgia, I found some new (to me) information in the Find-A-Grave database for Orange Hill Cemetery in Hawkinsville, Pulaski County, Georgia.

Where have I been and what am I working on?

Yeah, it’s been a while since I’ve posted anything here.  I noticed in the last year or so that I tend to work on all my projects in waves.  I’ll work on building my model railroad for a month or two, then I’ll sort stamps for a few weeks, then knock a couple books off my reading list, then spend some time with my record collection, then do some volunteer work, and….  You get the picture.

Lot's of work and a new mystery

So it's been a while since my last post.  I'm a bit busy with preparations for the MATC Portfolio Show where I will be exhibiting my photography next month, but I have had a few minutes here and there to do some more research.

I had started on a couple of posts describing how I was working through the keying tools for both Family Search and Ancestry, adding to the indexes of new records that will soon be on both sites (and my frustration on going through one census page from Minnesota that was mostly German and Austrian immigrants).  I also started another post about receiving our own 2010 Census form in the mail recently and that we had saved a photocopy of the form for future generations of researchers in my own family.  Finally, I also started a post on my trials in evaluating Roots Magic and whether or not I will be switching databases any time soon.  But, mostly because I didn't have a chance to fully flesh out my blog ideas on these topics, none of these posts got published.

Now, I've got a bit of a mystery...
