I am both a genealogy addict and a Monty Python fan. As I look at death records, headstone inscriptions, and other morbid historical documents, I find myself reciting lines from The Holy Grail ("I don't want to go on the cart!").
So when it came to choosing a domain name for this blog, I just couldn't help myself. My family tree is full of dead people. I'm just trying to dig them up and breathe some life back into them. "Bring out yer dead!"
