I have temporarily changed the blog title, as the definitions above seem to fit nicely with my goals of presenting various types of data on Palcic families around the world.

If you have any other suggestions, please do let me know! I have one more playful (as well as meaningful) possibility in mind, but your contributions and ideas are also welcome and appreciated.

You can also follow the blog to keep up to date. Just click on the “Entries RSS” link on the right to subscribe, so you get fresh posts to your favorite news reader.

I’m still tinkering with the format and layout of the blog, so if you see some changes along the way, no worries. I will be adding content from various historical data sets (census records, passenger arrival lists, and the like) as time permits.

Stay tuned for further developments.
