Finding Appropriate Locality Message Boards or It's a Long Way from Tipperary ... When you are browsing, searching, or posting a message on the RootsWeb/Ancestry Locality Message Boards be sure you are looking and posting in the right part of the world. http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/board/rw/localities There are three yellow folders for Localities: U.S. States; Canada; and United Kingdom and Ireland. The other option under localities is: BROWSE ALL LOCALITIES. If you select the latter your 13 choices are: Africa, Asia, Caribbean, Central America, Central Europe, Eastern Europe, Middle East, North America, Oceania, Scandinavian and Baltic States, South America, United Kingdom and Ireland, and Western Europe. If your family was from Tipperary (Ireland) you can't expect to find them searching the Germany General Message Board. By the same token you can't expect others researching your Irish ancestors to find your message if you post it on the Africa General Message Board. Pay attention as you navigate through the Message Board hierarchy as it can be a bit confusing. Be sure that you have arrived on the correct continent, country, and locality within a country before posting your message. Don't confuse Africa or Germany General with plain old General all-purpose. The Africa General is only for use when you are posting about ancestors who lived in Africa and where you don't know of a more specific location within Africa to post your query. Some countries only have a GENERAL board at this time (with room for possible later expansion), but that doesn't imply that the board is for posting of "general" messages concerning all the other countries. Lost? Use the FIND A MESSAGE BOARD option where you can type in the name of the board you wish to locate. Message Boards: http://boards.rootsweb.com/ * * * 1b. TIPS FROM READERS. English Pre-1858 Wills By Thomas H F Kidman kidman@onetel.net.uk Cirencester, England I have read wills as part of my genealogical searching for several decades. Their value veers from one extreme to the other. On the one hand I saw one which said no more than "I leave all my possessions to my wife" without even naming her, whereas on the other hand they can provide a mini-family tree in themselves. The beauty of wills is that they frequently provide relationships across surnames. If a daughter is named she may well be named with her married surname and the husband's name may also be quoted. This can provide the proof of a suspected marriage. Places can give other clues -- a piece of land that is being bequeathed may have been owned by the family for some years and show which parish or county that the family came from. Sometimes one can see treasured possessions passed down through several generations. A codicil may show where a certain child has fallen out of favour after the will was written! However before I get readers thinking that this is the tool that they have always been looking for, there are a few caveats. Few people left wills, probably around 10% and these would only be people who owned enough to have something to bequeath. Even then people sometimes died before they had made a will so a widow(er) would have to take letters of administration instead and this gives very little information if any. There are also the difficulties in finding them and reading them but at least the finding is now easier. Before 1858 English wills were proved at a variety of church courts, the main one being the Prerogative Court of Canterbury. There were local courts such as Archdiaconal Courts and Peculiars. From the beginning of 1858 all English wills have been proved at the Principal Probate Registry. The pre-1858 wills have now nearly all been indexed and can be searched online by going to http://www.documentsonline.pro.gov.uk A rare surname may work with the Quick Search but otherwise try the Advanced Search putting in surname, county and date range. If you find one that looks relevant you can download the image for three pounds (GBP 3). Generally the reading is not too much of a problem as the wills are not originals in a variety of hands but are copies in the register carefully written in a fairly standard hand. If you have problems reading them look for key words such as "item," "bequeath," "executor," etc. and work from there * * * 1c. ERRORS FOUND IN RECORDS: Can You Top These? He Married Who? By Charlie Brown chasbrow@brinet.com My great-grandfather, Patrick CONWAY, married Jane CALLAHAN in Cleveland, Ohio in 1862. The service was performed by the bishop of the Catholic diocese, whom, we suspect, knew Patrick from years before near Toledo. The county records show that Pat married "John Gallagher," and the record just before and just after had the same error. We really doubt that the Catholic Church was that liberal in 1862! * * * Real Clerical Errors By Barbara DeOliveira bobbidoll123@juno.com While volunteering at our church office I decided to look at the baptismal and confirmation records for my family. In my children's records I found a few errors as to dates and location of birth. I was the one that supplied the information on the forms submitted to the pastor. I know I gave the correct information. What happened? Who knows? That pastor is now retired. 2. Connecting Through RootsWeb. Thanks for sharing your stories. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Only Child Finds Siblings Plus Father's Colorful Past By John G. "WIERDOC" Wierdsma MD (Ret) mrfwgold@aol.com Alias John Edward Blake Jr. After some 20 years of amateurish genealogical activities, I have amassed a relevant collection of family data. Posting it on the World- Connect site of RootsWeb.com -- warts-n-all -- brought a flood of responses. Some were petty, mean, and trivial, but most were helpful, including a plethora of personal contributions. I was learning and entranced by findings of hoarded materials found by my daughters after my mother's death in 1995 -- boxes and trunks of aged photo albums, documents, and such. As a child I had heard reference made to our rich heritage--the CURTISS, ENSIGN, and LANES from far climes in New England. Although my grand- parents were from a line of early California pioneers, they had little to show for it at the time. The original ranches were part of Rancho- Mendocino -- a Spanish Land Grant lost to California statehood, taxation, and the 1929 stock market crash. I had spent 40 years as an OBG doc, and traveled extensively as a "corporate geek" in my latter years. I became entranced with the micro- history of America -- the stuff never mentioned in any history books. The trigger point was an old photo taken in front of an old Victorian three-story house with some rural folk gathered together around a stern- looking woman decked out in late-1800s stiff fashion-plate attire. She was all in black, with a full spreading skirt, a large wide flat hat and an imperious stance and holding out a furled umbrella in a challenging manner. Title at the bottom in bold florid script was: Aunt Ella Ensign visits from Simsbury, Connecticut--1912. In 1995 we were attending the 80th FOLSOM family reunion in Exeter, New Hampshire (my wife's family) and so out of curiosity we went over to Simsbury, Connecticut to see what we might find. The CURTISS-ENSIGN history literally came tumbling out of the closet. We came home with enough material to keep us busy for an eternity. Simsbury had historical museums and libraries in abundance. There was a large centrally located cemetery filled with Curtisses and Ensigns, plus most of the names in Stiles genealogical history of New England. Yes, there was even a Chas. E. Curtiss V in residence, nearby from the original settler line. This led to our attendance of the genealogy classes given at BYU (Brigham Young University) under the Elder hostel programs. Since my retirement in 1995 this has brought us up to speed with tracking our ancestry online. Not to say that tramping through wet grass of distant cemeteries and prowling the stacks of libraries isn't a valid endeavor, it's just a little cheaper and easier than traveling nowadays. To bring this to an amazingly twisted conclusion, I was contacted online by an individual who asked how we shared the same grandparents. WOW! 70 years as an only child, and I now have acquired eight siblings. My father allegedly disappeared in the 1930s when the Japanese invaded China. He was an agent for British Petroleum at the time. They said all was ever found was a duffel bag of dirty clothes and a trunk of Czarist Russian money in storage at a San Francisco address -- or so I was told! Pop apparently returned to California, leading a colorful life. He was married several times. It was later said that among his things there were five passports with the same picture, but many different names. He had attended law school, but never graduated; he worked as a PI (private investigator), ran a business school, owned a taxicab company at one time, had 1st mate's papers and shipped out to many foreign countries. A charmer, world traveler, who had many friends in high places, so 'tis said, and he named every first-born male after himself, so there seen to be several John Edward Blake Juniors about. Last year there was a gathering of BLAKES, a reunion of sorts. There was a exchange of stories, etc. We have agreed to advance our search for Blake roots, and so far it goes back to Cork, Ireland about 1825.

The 1871 digests consist of claims from Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia. There are also claimants and witnesses from New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania, as well as one ship's captain whose state was unidentified. Background: "An act of [U.S.] Congress, approved March 3, 1871, provided that the President nominate three commissioners of claims (to be confirmed by the Senate) to receive, examine, and consider the claims of "those citizens who remained loyal adherents to the cause and the Government of the United States during the war [Civil War], for stores or supplies taken or furnished during the rebellion for the use of the Army of the United States in States proclaimed as in insurrection against the United States." By an act approved May 11, 1872, this clause was extended to include property used by the Navy. The commissioners were to satisfy themselves of the loyalty of each claimant; certify the amount, nature, and value of the property taken or furnished; report their judgment on each claim in writing to the House of Representatives at the beginning of each session of Congress. http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~familyinformation/ ZIEMER FAMILY HOME.

FROM ROOTSWEB REVIEW'S BOTTOMLESS MAILBAG [Editor's note: The opinions expressed herein are those of the authors and are not necessarily those of the editor or of RootsWeb.com]. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Naming Naughty Book Heroines By Amber Woolsey amberwool@yahoo.com The story in last week's RootsWeb Review about spring cleaning in England made me laugh. The author's story relates how her grandmother changed her name for her tombstone so she wouldn't be known as the title of a naughty book. It is so funny to me because I was named after another naughty book: Forever, Amber * * * Surviving Works By Ted Rice ted_rice@cserv.net I have been following some of the discussion on sharing information and would like to add to the discussion. Our family genealogy work was started by my great-grandfather and continued by my great-uncle. He (my great-uncle) sent out fan charts, etc. to family members but never seemed to have shared his sources or documentation. Later his son and another family member each decided they were "THE" family genealogist. As a result a lot was lost, and I had to start over entirely with documentation. I have found my work posted in many places on the Internet, fortunately usually with credit given, but my observation is this -- if you want your work to survive and be of value to others, distribute it (WITH sources) as widely as possible. I have heard former U.S. President Ronald Reagan used to have a sign on his desk that said something like "It is amazing what you can accomplish if you don't care who gets the credit." If you keep your work to yourself to get the credit, it may well not survive you, especially if no one else in your family is interested during your lifetime. * * * Capping Surnames By Bev Salzer beverlysalzer@hotmail.com I didn't realize that surnames should be capitalized. I've never heard that before. While I've been doing my family research for many years, I'm still fairly new to the Internet. Maybe the people who don't capitalize aren't "dunderheads," but rather folks who just don't know that's the preferred way to do it. I think it's an excellent idea for RootsWeb (and any other genealogy site) to post tips such as this, as it makes life easier for all. * * * The Good, the Bad and the Ugly of Online Publication By Frances Willess willess@juno.com I have spent many years, a lot of time, and a lot of money tracing my family. Since I do not want that information lost (I have some old personal letters not generally available), I try to share with every family member who has any interest, and love receiving information in return. I have proof for most of my genealogy; if I do not have proof I specify "possibly," but do not present it as fact. I am willing for others to publish my information if they want, and don't really care if I get credit as the source. But I really, really get upset when I see information that I know came from me, posted on the Internet with errors. I have found children with wrong parents, wrong spouses, and wrong dates. I also get upset if I see my information re-written in a way that changes the meaning and leaves the wrong impression. I often leave a Post-em note if I find something I know is wrong. But I think posting family history on the Internet is the greatest thing that ever happened to genealogists, as long as I use the information as the basis for my own research. * * * Dating and Other Problems By Mike Flanagan flanagan@ksni.net http://www.FlanaganFamily.net I've noticed two more common sources of errors in dates. Often, the date of a christening is substituted for a birth date without a qualifying "bef." And I have often found a marriage date that reflects the date that a marriage license was obtained rather than the date of the marriage ceremony, without a qualifying, "aft." And while I'm at it, it seems to me that we often get things backwards. Most people seem to be interested in producing an impressive tree with lots of names, and perhaps finding a famous name or two. Of course that's fun. But the real joy in researching your ancestors is in getting to know them. And there's no way to get to know them without source materials. If you only have the elemental statistics (e.g., "DeGraphenreed Patterson MCKINLEY, Sr., born June 27, 1828 in Russell Co., KY; died January 4, 1910 in Unionville, Putnam Co., MO. Buried in Unionville City Cemetery, Putnam Co., MO. He was the son of James MCKINLEY and Diana BALLEW. He married Elizabeth HARMON, February 22, 1857 in Putnam Co., MO."), you've only scratched the surface. And until you've dug deeply beneath the surface, you will not have even begun to get to know your great-grandparents. Surely, it is the primary sources for the statistics that give us the most satisfying glimpses into their personalities--where did they live, how did they live their lives, where did they receive their education, where did they go to church, what business dealings can we uncover, what qualities of relationship did they have with their children, their parents and their neighbors? A quality family tree is the product of much research and a sincere desire to get to know our ancestors and the times in which they lived. And yet it is only a map, an outline. Often it merely shows the vast quantity of elemental statistics that we haven't yet uncovered a clue about. I'm off my soapbox now. It's somebody else's turn 8.
