Irrelevant Thoughts

ManyRoads’ Mostly Irrelevant Thoughts

The writings you’ll find here are about things that bother me, interest me, or make me think. And at my age… thinking doesn’t come as easily as it used to.

A little about me: I almost always go by the username ManyRoads on social media and forums. Of course, I do have a real name—Mark Rabideau—but my most important title is “Opa” (grandfather). My wife and I have two grandsons.

Yes, we. I’ve been married for nearly 50 years, and to this day, I have no idea why she has put up with me for so long.

These days, I’m a geek, genealogist, historian, obsessive power-walker, and avid reader. My genealogy research, along with free historical resources, tutorials, and materials, can be found on my other website—ManyRoads.

As part of my latest adventure, I’ve transitioned almost all of my Substack articles and publications here. Moving forward, I intend to do all my writing in my own space. Thank you, WordPress, for making that possible.

Given my vast following on Substack (a whopping 24 people), I doubt I’ll be missed. Who knows—maybe in a couple of years, I’ll have even more than 24 followers here.

My Irrelevant Thoughts are in the folders below, more is on the way.
