It has been a very good week. I created a December 2009 version of the Buchanan Family Tree book, which adds 304 of Andrew and Jane's descendants since my 2007 version of the BFT book. Within the next few days I will have it available on my website for downloading. (Nearly half of those names came from Debbie Kerkowich's genealogy of the descendants of Robert Buchanan and Sarah Agnes Jackson. One person's contributions can make a big difference.)

Our Artistic Cousins I received an email from Marion Joyce (Mernie) Buchanan, who is an artist in California. It included her website, http://www.mernie.com/merniebio2.html This has a link to her sister Catherine's website. http://www.catherinebuchanan.com/ Both websites include bios of the artists. They are daughters of Roy Norman Buchanan and Joan Marion Clausen. Here is a picture of Mernie from her website:
