Potters Field

Brick Wall.  Two very small words that are so dreaded by anyone researching their family tree.  At some point in time everyone will hit a brick wall in their research.  Most who research expect it but it is never welcomed and most people keep searching for ways and information around their brick walls.
The two little words that evoke so much frustration and yes, I admit a true feeling of anger.  Not at anyone just the lack of being able to find the information I need or I should say want.
Nothing can be more frustrating then to start your research with a brick wall and find all roads of information lead no where quickly.  That is how it is for people who find their family members are presumed to be buried in a potters field.  I say presumed because of the lack of information that goes along with a potters field.  Some depending on where they are might have a little more information then others but usually it isn't much.  If anyone reading this has first hand insight as to what researching is like for you please comment.
