AF-1221: Every Mistake I Made in 2025 | Ancestral Findings Podcast

Genealogy teaches you something early. The record is rarely clean. Ink blots. Misspelled names. Ages that shift from census to census. People who appear, disappear, then show up again decades later with no explanation. When you study the past long enough, you stop expecting perfection. You start expecting the truth to arrive a little sideways.

2025 worked the same way.

Some mistakes were loud. Others were quiet enough that I did not notice them until later. Most were not dramatic disasters. They were small choices repeated often enough to leave a mark. When you lay them out in order, they read less like regret and more like documentation.

I am writing this the way I would study a set of records. Not to shame anyone. Not to put on a show. Just to tell the truth about what happened, so the next year starts with better footing...
