The Research Like a Pro Genealogy Podcast


May 22, 2023

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about Diana's 52 ancestors post with the prompt "out of place." She chose to write about her maternal grandfather, Edward Raymond Kelsey. After high school and a few years working at the railroad, he decided to become a hobo. This was about 1905. He stayed in hobo camps along the railroad lines and traveled throughout the northwest on the trains. Join us as we study the family stories, photos, and historical context of our ancestor, Edd Kelsey, and his time as a hobo.
