Hi to all the Charles Gramesly Journal readers.
I have made some changes to the blog set up. I did this so you may get more out of the posts. You notice below Charles' picture and the description of the blog are three tabs: Who is in the Journal . . ., Pictures and Family Trees. If you click on these you get pictures that go with the blog. Many of these are Charles' pictures. A description of some of the main people in the blog. Even I can get confused about who is who and this helps to keep them all sorted out. The Family Trees button will also help you keep the family straight.
At the very bottom you will find a new group of labels. You can click on a label and all of the posts with that label will come up. This is really the index to the blog. I hope you will enjoy this feature. After adding this I realized how much more efficient I could be with my labels. I will try to be better in the future.
Thank you for reading the journal. Your comments mean so much to me. It does take a bit of time to type all of this. I am, however, caught in the history and I have found the family, actually my family, to be very intriguing. I m so glad I have not missed them being in my life. If you would like to send me a private message you may always email me at: busycs4@aol.com.

Charles Gramesly's Journal was written from 1878 to 1925. I am his Great-granddaughter and I post entries from the journal from 114 and 125 years ago. The journal is about everyday living in Charleston & Coles County Illinois. It is not just about the Gramesly family, it is about the community, the region and the issues on all levels that touch their lives. Many people are mentioned in this journal. Join me as I explore history written by my Great-grandfather . . .
Boy do I understand what you are saying. I follow my Great Aunt Annie journal for 1912 along with yours to see what is going on in Charleston and the comparison. It has brought my family members to life, I feel like I know my Great Grandparents now.
