GENEALOGY: Patience Patience

One of the hardest things to do in genealogy is to learn to be patient. Every find is so exciting that you can't wait to find the next and the next. Elusive ancestors are enough to keep me up at night thinking of where to look next.
I have a name, well multiple names actually for a woman who died in 1951. I really have no other concrete information about her other than who her husband was. It is driving me crazy not to find anything.
All I have to do is go to the archives and look at her marriage and death records. They are there and they may hold the key to her parents names and her place of birth. I have to make a day of it and look up lots of things so I only have to make one trip. I am working on multiple trees right now and have to get my list ready.
Friday is the day. Lucky Friday the 13th. I know I will find what I am looking for. I have to. I need the sleep.
