Without the middle initial I show up in an old work directory and one other work related site that I wasn't aware of that had cool pics that I was happy to find. The rest were all genealogy related :-)<br /><br />Using my maiden name I got too many hits to wade through, mostly obits or family trees. Using my nickname/maiden name I found myself on facebook and most of the rest of the hits were for men.Charley "Apple" Grabowskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07193646109965731249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26204193.post-87056827672162225362009-07-18T21:15:08.883-07:002009-07-18T21:15:08.883-07:00Mine's posted at my blog at www.allmyancestors...Mine's posted at my blog at www.allmyancestors.com/blog.

"Martin E. Hollick" now yields 20,200 hits whereas "Martin Hollick" 3,810. The same searches on Google Images gets me my picture as well as the front of my only book. <br /><br />I'm also in Google Books. My story has to do with one time Googling me in Google Books and seeing my name mentioned in an acknowledgment of an academic text. I had no idea that I had helped that person as a librarian--but there I was. The gift of having and unusual name.Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17205797878738290997noreply@blogger.com
