===========================================

In order to select a specific record collection on FamilySearch, go to  https://familysearch.org/search/collection/list and use the "Filter by collection name" feature in the upper left-hand corner and use keywords (e.g. "church england") to find collections with those keywords.

My friend, Marshall, has come up with a way to determine which collections are ADDED, DELETED or UPDATED.  Thanks to Marshall for helping me out here!

Each one of the collections listed above has a Research Wiki page (use the "Learn more" link).  It would be very useful if the Wiki page for each collection listed the dates for when the collection was added as a new collection and the dates for major updates also.

Saturday Night Genealogy Fun -- Your Longest Ancestral Marriage

Calling all Genea-Musings Fans: 

 It's Saturday Night again - 

time for some more Genealogy Fun!!



Your mission, should you decide to accept it (cue the Mission Impossible music!), is to:


1)  Marcia Philbrick wrote Celebrating 50 Years today on her Heartland Genealogy blog, and suggested it for a Saturday Night Genealogy Fun challenge, so here it is:

2)   How many of your ancestors were married for FIFTY years?  What is the longest marriage of your ancestors in your tree (from marriage to first death of a spouse, or divorce)?  Consider, say, the last 6 generations to make it manageable!

Surname Saturday -- PICKERING (England to colonial Massachusetts)

It's Surname Saturday, and I'm "counting down" my Ancestral Name List each week.

I am working in the 9th great-grandmothers by Ahnentafel number, and I am up to Ancestor #2251 who is Mary PICKERING (1598-1676). [Note: the more recent ancestral families have been covered in earlier posts.]

My ancestral line back through one generation in this PICKERING family line is:

1. Randall J. Seaver

2. Frederick Walton Seaver (1911-1983)
3. Betty Virginia Carringer (1919-2002)

4. Frederick Walton Seaver (1876-1942)
5. Alma Bessie Richmond (1882-1962)

8. Frank Walton Seaver (1852-1922)
9. Hattie Louise Hildreth (1857-1920)

16. Isaac Seaver (1823-1901)
17. Lucretia Townsend Smith (1827-1884)

34.  Alpheus B. Smith (1802-1840)
35.  Elizabeth Horton Dill (1791-1869)

70.  Thomas Dill (1755-1839)

71.  Hannah Horton (1761-1797)

140.  Thomas Dill (1708-1761)
141.  Mehitable Brown (1714-1758)

280.  Thomas Dill (1682-1718)
281.  Mary Pierce (1682-1713)

562.  Nathaniel Pierce (1655-1692)
563.  Elizabeth Pierce (1646-????)

1124.  Robert Pierce (1621-1706)
1125.  Mary Knight (1621-1701)

2250.  John Knight, born before 30 January 1594 in Romsey, Hampshire, England; died 22 May 1674 in Charlestown, Suffolk, Massachusetts, United States.  He married 1619 in Southampton, Hampshire, England.
2251.  Mary Pickering, born about 1598 in Southampton, Hampshire, England; died 16 May 1676 in Charlestown, Suffolk, Massachusetts, United States.

Children of John Knight and Mary Pickering are:
Mary Knight (1621-1701), married 1645 Robert Pierce (1621-1706)
*  Joseph Knight (1624-1687), married 1649 Hannah Lamb (1633-1695).
*  John Knight (1630-1714), married 1654 Ruhamah Johnson (1634-1659).
*  Michael Knight (1634-1657), married 1657 Mary Bullard (1630-????).

The only Knight and Pickering information I've found is from:

*  Ellery Bicknell Crane, Historic Homes and Institutions and Genealogical and Personal Memoirs of Worcester County, Massachusetts (New York : The Lewis Publishing Company, 1907), page 373, John Knight sketch.

I have done no original research on this Pickering family line.
