Saturday Night Genealogy Fun -- Analyze Your 3rd Great-Grandparents AncestryDNA ThruLines

  Calling all Genea-Musings Fans:

It's Saturday Night again -

Time for some more Genealogy Fun!!

Here is your assignment, should you decide to accept it (you ARE reading this, so I assume that you really want to play along - cue the Mission Impossible music!):

1)  If you have AncestryDNA ThruLines results, which set of 3rd great-grandparents has the most ThruLines? [Note:  Go to Ancestry.com home age, then "DNA" tab, then "ThruLines" tab and run your mouse over each of your ancestors to see the number of ThruLines for each ancestor].  Analyze your ThruLines from these ancestors.  Are they all "correct?"  

[If you don't have AncestryDNA, but have another DNA test provider, analyze those results for your 3rd great-grandparents.]

2)  Write your own blog post, or leave a comment on this post, or write something on Facebook.

Here's mine:

The third great-grandparents with the most ThruLines are John Rich (1790-1868) and Rebecca Hill (1790-1862) with 38 ThruLines.  This couple resided in Hilperton in Wiltshire in England.  I have 21 ThruLines through their daughter, my 2nd great-grandmother Hannah Rich (1824-1911) who married James Richman (1821-1912) and migrated to the USA in 1856.  The other 17 ThruLines are through five other children of John and Rebecca (Hill) Rich. 

Of the 17 "other" ThruLines, the highest number of centiMorgans is 108 cM in 5 segments - the relationship is 3rd cousin once removed.  The other relationships of these 17 are mostly 4th cousins or 4th cousins once removed. There are 8 ThruLines in this group that share at least 20 cM with me.  There are 3 ThruLines in those 17 that share 10 cM or less with me, and they are all likely my cousins.  

I think that 37 of the 38 ThruLines are "correct" according to my research.  The ThruLine that is "incorrect" has the wrong child connected to Hannah (Rich) Richman, but is likely related through another child of John and Rebecca (Hill) Rich.

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

My friend and SDGS colleague, Marshall, has come up with a way to determine which collections are ADDED, DELETED or UPDATED, and to alphabetize the entries in each category. Thanks to Marshall for helping me out here!

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.

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.

Findmypast Friday: Search Surrey Stories and More

  I received this information from Findmypast today:

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

Search Surrey stories and so much more

If you've got roots in the Greater London area, you may just find the name of an ancestor or two amongst this week's new additions.

If you've got ancestors from the Greater London area, this week's release is for you, as we've added over 40,000 Non-Conformist parish records from Southwark. With both images and transcriptions available, these four fascinating new sets span two centuries of history.

We've also added four brand-new titles to our newspaper collection, with a total of 302,872 new pages available for you to explore. Read on for a full rundown of all that's been added.

Surrey, Southwark Baptisms

The first of this week's exciting new sets is Surrey, Southwark Baptisms, which contains 11,354 records spanning from 1801 to 1923. With both images and transcriptions available, there are so many rich details to discover.

These records are from registers created by Southwark's Non-Conformist denominations, from Baptist, Congregational (Independent), and Methodist chapels across the London borough. These denominations typically created baptism registers similar to England's Anglican parishes, meaning that these records are similar to our Church of England parish baptisms.

Surrey, Southwark Marriages

This week's second new set is a collection of Non-Conformist marriages, also from the Surrey parish of Southwark. There are 896 records to explore, covering 1867 to 1939.

They derive from congregations across Southwark - including chapels near the Thames in Bermondsey and Borough, and others further south, in Peckham and Camberwell.

Surrey, Southwark Burials

Next up, we've also added Non-Conformist burial records from Southwark. Within this brand-new set, there are 1,915 records to explore, covering the years 1781 to 1860. If you've managed to trace the London branches of your family tree back as far as the 18th century, this collection is not to be missed.

These burial records are from Independents (Congregationalists), which are part of the United Reformed Church. They come specifically from the York Street Chapel, Walworth, and the Colliers Rents Independent Chapel, Southwark.

Surrey, Southwark Congregational Registers

In addition to baptisms, marriages, and burials, we've also added 24,844 Non-Conformist congregational records for Southwark, spanning the years 1804 to 1984.

Including everything from Sunday School admission registers and pledge books to dues (tax) registers, this varied set records the life of Southwark's Non-Conformist community. You'll find both images and transcriptions for each record, although the information included depends on the type of record.

Newspapers

We're going back to school with this week's newspaper release, which sees the addition of the all-new Schoolmaster and Edinburgh Weekly Magazine to our collection. We've added three further titles from London, Liverpool, and Kent, too.

Joseph married in 1697 to Joannes "Jane" DeCamp (1677-1739) in Elizabeth, New Jersey[1].  She was the daughter of Laurens Jansen and Aeltje "de Mandeville) DeCamp.  They had nine children, all probably born in Elizabeth, New Jersey, but there are no birth records for them[1]:

*  Mercy Kelsey (1698-1760), married 1722 Richard Cutter (1682-1756).

*  Hannah Kelsey (1700-1777), married 1726 James Badgley (1699-1777).

Rabbit Holes With Randy - a Genea-Whiff! and Google Saves!

 It was a deep rabbit hole that took two hours to sort out.

1)  Some history:  By the year 2000, I had made a lot of xerox copies of book and periodical pages and had filled up three-hole binders with all of the paper sorted by surnames (e.g., "Auble") or groups of surnames (e.g., "Medfield families" with tabs for each surname).  My book cases were full.  The tops of the bookcases had periodicals on them.  There was no more room in the genealogy cave for more bookcases.  

But my research at libraries, including the Family History Library/Center and local libraries, did not stop.  I continued to make xerox copies of useful books and periodical articles and records but I didn't add them to the already packed binders.  The loose papers (stapled as needed) were then stacked up on the floor or put in the open space between the top of the binders and the top of the bookcase frame.  

Over time, I entered the information from the binders and the loose papers into Family Tree Maker and, after 2008, into RootsMagic.  On the papers, I noted if I had entered the data to the programs, and added source citations in RootsMagic.  

And then we could find information in books, periodicals, records, digital microfilm, etc. online and save it on the genealogy computer.  So I also have computer file folders with digital information for each surname and each ancestral family, plus localities and repositories.  Some of it duplicates the stuff in the three-hole binders.  

2)  The Rabbit Hole:  Every week I try to write a genealogical sketch for the 52 Ancestors theme on Genea-Musings (see the list at https://www.geneamusings.com/p/ancestor-biographies.html). I consult the Notes and Sources I've made for my target person in RootsMagic.  If I lack information to fill out the sketch, I go looking for my source in the computer file folders and the binders/loose papers, and then search online (Ancestry, FamilySearch, American Ancestors, MyHeritage, Google, Internet Archive, Find A Grave, etc.) to check all of the information boxes I need for the sketch.

This week's 52 Ancestor sketch is for  Joseph Kelsey (1673-1742) and I could not find a three-ring binder with information for him or his ancestry.  So I looked through my computer file folders for Kelsey, and then all of the loose papers (about 6 linear feet of paper) and found two articles about his ancestry, but not the pages of the book that I had sourced in RootsMagic.  Apparently, when I found the book in the Family History Library years ago, I entered the name/date/place material into RootsMagic without capturing the text within the book.

Plan B was to search the online record providers.  A search for my Joseph Kelsey on Ancestry revealed very little - not a book or periodical and no birth, marriage or death records.  Same with the other providers.

So I went to Plan C - I searched for the book title (A Genealogy of the Descendants of William Kelsey, written in 1928) on Google.  And the first match was a digitized book on Ancestry:  

I entered the name of Joseph Kelsey and easily found his family sketch on page 65.  

3)  Huh???  I searched Ancestry for him.  I went back and looked again on Ancestry - I missed the entry (there were 4,413 matches) - his family sketch was the 3rd entry on the list in "Public Member Stories" and I flat out missed it.  Perhaps I was distracted?  Or had a senior moment?  

No excuses - a genea-whiff!!  It's good to have a multi-pronged search, I guess. 

I downloaded the cover pages and the pertinent pages of the book that cover the three generations of ancestor Kelseys in the book and saved them to my Kelsey surname file folder on my computer.  

So "no harm, no foul" as they say in basketball - Google Saves!  I have what I needed, but I spent two hours finding it (but it was a "fun" two hours finding stuff I had forgotten about!).  I found out (again!) that I have a lot of loose papers not in the binders!  And I made this blog post about it.

Are any of my readers or other researchers this messed up?  I could revamp my whole file system and digitize everything, put it all in the computer files, but it would take years to do it.  Frankly, I'd rather explore for new ancestors and new information about my ancestors than do what I should have done over 35 years of research.  Genealogy stuff happens.  My bad.  But it's been fun!

I need some carrots to reward myself for this success!

Treasure Chest Thursday -- 1658/9 Marriage Record of Mark Kelsey and Rebecca Hoskins in Windsor, Connecticut

 I looked in my digital image files to see what treasures I can find for my family history and genealogy musings for Treasure Chest Thursday.

The treasure today is the 1658/9 marriage record of Mark Kelsey and Rebecca Hoskins in Windsor, Connecticut Colony:

The marriage record is the 7th from the top of the page:

The transcription of this marriage record is:

"KELSEY, Mark2 (c1634-    ) & 1/wf Rebecca HOSKINS; m Windsor 8 Mar 1658/9 [GMB 2:1119]"

The source citation for this  marriage record is:

"U.S. New England Marriages Prior to 1700," indexed database with digital images,   Ancestry.com (https://www.ancestry.com), Third Supplement to Torrey´s New England Marriages Prior to 1700, page 165, Mark Kelsey and Rebecca Hoskins marriage entry, Cambridge, 8 March 1658/9; Original data from Torrey, Clarence A., New England Marriages Prior to 1700 (Baltimore, MD : Genealogical Publishing Co., 2004)

This record is a Derivative Source, with Secondary Information and Indirect Evidence of the marriage of Mark Kelsey and Rebecca Hoskins in Windsor, Connecticut. 

Mark Kelsey was born about 1634, probably in Cambridge, Massachusetts, the son of William and Esther (--?--) Kelsey.  He died before 27 February 1722/3 in Windsor.  He married (1) Rebecca Hoskins (1634-1683), daughter of John and Ann (Filer) Hoskins, on 8 March 1658/9 in Windsor, Connecticut.  They had 7 children.  He married (2) Abigail --?-- Atwood, widow of Thomas Atwood, in 1683 in Windsor, Connecticut.  They had no children.

Mark and Rebecca (Hoskins) Kelsey are my 8th great-grandparents.  I am descended through their son Joseph Kelsey (1673-1742), who married in 1697 to Joannes DeCamp (1677-1739) in Elizabeth New Jersey.
