Chris, aka The Ailurophile, has been blogging at leaftwigandstem.blogspot.com since 2013. Chis is originally from New England and now lives in Texas. Chris writes, “Lisa Louise Cooke referred to genealogy blogs as “cousin bait” and I thought I might fill in some missing parts of the tree and meet new cousins by blogging. It worked!”
