Just a little taste of my newest project: My grandfather passed away when I was 18 years old and I have been given some of his journals and boxes of photographs. This summer I want to work on typing them for my family to have access to. I decided that if I put them into blog format then they can be easily accessed. I will also have them saved as a Word document if anyone wants me to email them at any point. I also plan to upload photographs as I get them scanned into my computer.
Enjoy! http://kndurrant.blogspot.com/
"Life History of Kenneth Norwood Durrant.
Son of Lorenzo Heber Durrant and Sarah Jane Norwood. Born at Porterville, Morgan Co, Utah on the 28th day of March 1903. This record being commenced Feb. 25, 1952 at Heber City Utah. Having lived almost 49 years and knowing that my life must be at least half over I feel that I should put in writing, for future generations, a few of the things that have happened in my life. I suppose one of the things that has inspired me to do this more than anything else is the fact that when my father died on 29 of June 1951 all of his records fell into my hands, and the things that he told about himself were the things that I enjoyed the most, and were of the most worth to me. I found there no record of his life, as I intend to make here, but just little sketches in notebooks and on pieces of paper. And I have hungered for a more complete record of his, and my mothers, lives. They were so full and accomplished so much more than I will ever have to tell here but I feel that what little I have should be preserved."
