Best of the Genea-Blogs - 15-21 December 2013

Hundreds of genealogy and family history bloggers write thousands of posts every week about their research, their families, and their interests. I appreciate each one of them and their efforts.


My criteria for "Best of ..." are pretty simple - I pick posts that advance knowledge about genealogy and family history, address current genealogy issues, provide personal family history, are funny or are poignant. I don't list posts destined for daily blog prompts or meme submissions (but I do include summaries of them), or my own posts.

Here are my picks for great reads from the genealogy blogs for this past week:


*  What Is It About Genealogists and the SSDI? by Barbara Mathews on The MGC Sentinel blog. Barbara summarizes what's about to happen to the Social Security Death Index after action by Congress.

*  Facebook for Genealogists: Threads by Cyndi Ingle on the Cyndi's List blog.  Cyndi provides common sense guidelines for using Facebook groups and other forums for genealogy discussion and research.

*  Thoughts on "Browsing Genealogical Proof" by John D. Reid on the Canada's Anglo-Celtic connections blog.  John argues that we really can't "prove" anything in genealogy without DNA testing.

*  Going In-Depth: December 2013 by the In-Depth Genealogist team.  This monthly digital genealogy magazine has excellent articles on a range of subjects.

*  Where I would Like Genealogy To Be in Five or Ten Years by James Tanner on the Genealogy's Star blog.  James has his crystal ball out again, and has some good predictions.

*  Digital Folder Naming and Organizing Made Easy by Diane Gould Hall on the Michigan Family Trails blog.  Diane shows how she names digital files and organizes file folders.

*  Shades, The Magazine - The Toys Issue by footnoteMaven on the Shades of the Departed blog.  A new issue of the famous and indispensable Shades, The Magazine!  Read and enjoy!

*  Treasure Chest Thursday (December 19, 2013): The Tew Family Holiday Newsletters by John D. Tew on the Filiopietism Prism blog.  What a superb idea as an heirloom gift for your children and later generations.  I love it!

*  SSDI: The Fat Lady Sings by Judy G. Russell on The Legal Genealogist blog.  Judy discusses what will happen to the SSDI, and notes that it could have been worse.

These genea-bloggers wrote weekly pick posts and news summary posts this week:

*  NN Things You Need to Know This Morning, Sunday 15 Dec 2013, Monday, 16 Dec 2013; Tuesday, 17 Dec 2013; Wednesday, 18 Dec 2013; Thursday, 19 Dec 2013; Friday, 20 Dec 2013, and Saturday, 21 Dec 2013 by Caroline M. Pointer on the 4YorFamilyStories.com blog.

*  Follow Friday ~ Fab Finds for December 20, 2013 by Jana Last on Jana's Genealogy and Family History Blog. 

*  News Stories and Blogs for Genealogists, December 20, 2013 by Michael Leclerc on the Mocavo Genealogy Blog.

*  Friday Finds - 12/20/13 by Julie Cahill Tarr on Julie's Genealogy & History Hub blog.

*  Saturday Serendipity (December 21, 2013) by John D. Tew on the Filiopietism Prism blog.

Readers are encouraged to go to the blogs listed above and read their articles, and add their blogs to your Favorites, Feedly, another RSS feed, or email if you like what you read. Please make a comment to them also - all bloggers appreciate feedback on what they write.

Did I miss a great genealogy blog post? Tell me! I am currently reading posts from over 1400 genealogy bloggers using Feedly, but I still miss quite a few it seems.

Saturday Night Genealogy Fun - Make a Surname Christmas Tree

Calling all Genea-Musings Fans: 
 It's Saturday Night again - 
time for some more Genealogy Fun!!



Come on, everybody, join in and accept the mission and execute it with precision.  

Leslie Ann had a post on her Ancestors Live Here blog this week titled Wordless Wednesday -- Surname Christmas Tree which I thought was a great idea for an SNGF challenge on a Surname Saturday.  Are you game?

1)  Go see Leslie Ann's post, and figure out how you could make something similar to hers or to mine below.  

2)  Make your Surname Christmas Tree using your ancestral surnames - there's no limit on the number of surnames - and decorate your tree as you wish.  

3)  Show us your Surname Christmas Tree and tell us how you made it in a blog post of your own, in a Facebook post or in a Google+ post.

Here's mine:


Here's how I did it:

*  I used my word processor to add the surnames in an approximate tree shape.
*  I colored the surnames green for the tree and brown for the trunk.
*  I went to Google Images and looked for tree ornaments to decorate my tree, saved them, and inserted them into the word processing page.  
*  I saved the word processing page as a PDF file.
*  I opened the PDF file, reduced the magnification, and used the Winsdows Snipping Tool to create a JPG image.
*  I added the JPG image as above.

It did take me over an hour to create...I have over 10 generations of ancestral surnames on the tree above.  I hope I didn't spell any names wrong!

I showed you mine, now please show me yours!  

Thank you, Leslie Ann, for a great SNGF idea!

Dear Randy: "Can I Access Ancestry.com for Free?"

I had an email correspondent ask this question (with some explanation before) and I've answered it several times in my local society research group meetings:

"I'm on a fixed income, and I cannot afford to subscribe to Ancestry.com.  Can I access it for free?  Could someone do lookups for me and send me a record image?"

My answer is:

1)  You can go to some local libraries and local LDS FamilySearch Libraries and access Ancestry Library Edition for FREE.  Ancestry Library Edition has almost all of the historical record databases available, with the notable exception of the Historical Newspapers (last time I checked).  It also doesn't include the Family Trees.  You can see all of the differences at http://help.ancestry.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/5237/kw/ancestry%20familysearch%20library.

Look for the online databases that your local and regional libraries have available.  Ancestry Library Edition is not available for home users.  You will have to go to the participating library to use it.

If you want to obtain digital images of different records, then take a flash drive with you to save the records on.  Depending on the computer system at the library, you may have to download the image to a computer folder and then copy it to your flash drive using the "Save" button.  Consult with the computer folks at the library.  You might be able to email it to yourself - if Ancestry Library Edition has that feature (I can't access it at home to test it).

Here in the San Diego area, the San Diego City Library system, the San diego County Library system, and Carlsbad Library have access to Ancestry Library Edition on their public computers.

2)  A friend or colleague could do lookups for you on Ancestry.com if they have an Ancestry.com home subscription, and then email you the records using the email feature on a record image page.  However, doing more than one or two of them might violate the Terms of Use for your friend or colleague.

I hope that this helps my correspondent and anyone else who has these questions.

Fascinating Composite "Then and Now" 1906 San Francisco Earthquake Pictures

My friend Dennis sent me a link to the web page Composite Then and Now Photos of the 1906 San Francisco Earthquake yesterday, and I shared it on Facebook, but I want to share it with all of my readers also:



The site says:

"Since 2010, San Francisco photographer Shawn Clover has been working on a striking series of then and now composite photos of the 1906 San Francisco earthquake. To create the series, Clover collected archival photos of the earthquake’s aftermath. He then replicated the photos himself, down to the location, camera position and focal length (to the best of his estimation). The resulting composite photos hauntingly combine stark images of the earthquake’s devastation with modern scenes of life in San Francisco."

Even if you don't have any ancestral image in San Francisco, this technique and the results are fascinating for everyone.  I can see trying to do this with ancestral photographs also, similar to what people did with the "My Photo" feature in 2011 where you held up an old photo in front of the current scene.  

My wife and I were interested in this series of composite photographs because her great-grandparents and her grandmother resided in San Francisco in 1906, experienced the earthquake, and probably saw many of the archive photo scenes.

Follow-Up Friday - Interesting and Helpful Reader Comments

It's been several weeks since I've posted a Follow-up Friday column - I'll try to hit the high points:

1)  On First Look at Legacy Family Tree Version 8.0 - Post 11: Migration Mapping Chart (posted 18 December 2013):

a.  Geolover asked:  "The timeline mapping is a nice feature.  Can the pins be moved to the right places? In your first screenshot with pins it looks like all of them are a bit south of actual locations."

b.  Geoff answered:  "As you zoom in, the pins appear to be in the correct places. Legacy does attempt to automatically resolve the locations so there's not much that you manually have to do."

c.  bgwiehle commented:  "It would be an interesting option if the places were linked with lines (ideally the most likely or actual routes taken) and if the intervals in the animation had some kind of count showing length of residence at each location."

My comment:  My observation is that the round pin head is centered on the correct place, and the pin point is not.  I always expect the pin point to be on the location.  bgwiehle's suggestion is interesting - some sort of popup showing a path (even if it's a straight line) and the length of time in one place would be useful.

2)  On "What good is it to access a newspaper image on Ancestry.com, and not be able to see it after my subscription runs out?" (posted 16 December 2013):

a.  Rorey Cathcart noted:  "While I realize this a response to an Ancestry.com specific question it applies to all subscription services.  I learned the hard way to always 'capture' an image of the resource, i.e. census, article, vitals. This way you'll be able to access it whether your subscription lapses or the site is down or you just don't have an internet connection that day.

"Having a desktop program to which you can attach those images is helpful for organization but not essential. The biggest problems are space and naming conventions so you can find the image again. The first is easily solved with a large external hard drive, relatively cheap these days. The second is a little more tricky because it is often more personalized. If you use a photo program such as Windows Photo Gallery with the ability to add tags, it makes the naming less complicated and finding the images again much easier via tags for surname, location, etc."

My comment:  Excellent observations, and suggestions.

b.  Sara Gredler commented:  "Your post is one reason that I have a desktop family tree program and download everything from all family history sites, subscription or no, onto my hard drive. I want to be able to do my genealogy without an Internet connection."

c.  McElrea ONS asked:  "And what are the rules for using the Shoebox option?"

My comment:  The Ancestry.com Online Help article for The Ancestry.com Shoebox says:
"In order to view the records in your shoebox you must have a current paid subscription."


a.  Chris offered:  "I think the last column is occupation. Entries 88, 97 and 98 have no ages and the last column is Dødfødt which is stillborn. Record 93 is fattig which means poor. Dødfødt, gammel (old) and fattig are the same words in Danish."

My comment:  Thank you!  All I need for Christmas is a good Norwegian/English dictionary and someone to read the handwriting!

b.  Vinny said:  "Thanks Randy for letting know. Even I didn't know that some of the Norwegian church parish register books have been digitized. I'm glad to learn such educative lessons and looking forward to learn more about such records."

My comment:  Good luck with your learning.  There are so many announcements about digitized records every year, and I can't remember all of them all of the time.  


a.  Grandpa Landmeier noted:  "Randy, I am always concerned that things that are available today may not be available tomorrow. As a Family History Center Director I was recently required to send certain films back to Salt Lake since British Columbia had removed their public access for those records. I suspect that is why films are on LOAN and not owned by local centers."

My comment:  Excellent observation, and my guess is that this happens occasionally.  


a.  NEnglerth asked:  "If these are your ancestors your are researching, then we are related. Last night I found your post about Adam Mott and today I find Henry Tucker. How about the Allens and Slocums?"

My comment:  You can see an almost up-to-date list of my Amanuensis Monday posts at http://www.geneamusings.com/p/amanuensis-monday-posts.html.  I do have Allen and Slocum ancestors on the list.  Are any of them yours?

6)  That covers the comments I found most helpful over the past two or three weeks.  

My thanks to all of my readers who are persistent enough to overcome the Captcha trap (I can't imagine how many spam and obscene comments are prevented by it!) - it is necessary for my sanity.  

I do get several other spam comments every day that Blogger puts in the spam folder - why do these people do this?  What a waste of time!

First Look at Legacy Family Tree Version 8.0 - Post 12: Family Bow-Tie Chart

Rather than do a comprehensive look step-by-step at Legacy Family Tree Version 8.0 - I did that for Version 7.0, and 8.0 is an improvement on Version 7.0 - I'm going to highlight new (or old) features I find as I work through the program screens.  New or updated features in Legacy Family Tree are listed in Legacy Family Tree 8.0 Now Available.

Today, it's the "Family Bow-Tie Chart" feature.  The description of this feature is:


"Displays the ancestors of both the husband and wife, as well as their children."

A "bow tie chart" shows the ancestors of a couple for a selected number of generations - the father's ancestors on one side of the chart, and the mother's ancestors on the other side.

Let's see how this works - I will use my parents family as the basis:

1)  On any View tab, click on the "Reports" menu item and then find the "Legacy Charting" button:




2)  I clicked the "Legacy Charting" button on the screen above, and the Legacy Charting program opened, and I could select the type of chart to create:


The "Family Bow Tie" chart is at the bottom of the list.

3)  I clicked on the "Family Bow Tie" chart icon and the chart opened:


The initial chart had only three generations of ancestors for my father (on the left) and my mother (on the right.  My parents were in the middle of the chart, and their three children were below them.  Zooming in to see my parents, I saw:


4)  I wanted it prettier - with gender colors (blue for males, pink for females), with a larger type font, wider boxes, a larger title, wider lines, and no pictures (because I don't have face pictures for all of the people).  I did all of that on the "Appearances" tab.  I also wanted six generations on the chart, and that was on the "Home" tab.

After making all of those changes, I came out with a chart with six generations on each side, is readable, and is 59.5 inches wide (7 sheets) and 66 inches high (6 sheets).  Here is the 100% view:


Here is a wider view of this chart:


5)  How many generations will this chart take?  I went up to 9 generations, and the program showed me a chart 85 inches wide (over 7 feet wide) and 473 inches high (almost 40 feet!).



Hmmm, I'll pass on printing that - 430 pages!  If this were made top-to-bottom instead of left-to-right, it could wall paper a large room!

6)  That is pretty much what I wanted in this chart.  I like this format with father's ancestors on one side and them other's ancestors on the other side.

I would like to have thumbnail pictures, but when I added those, the box height was much more because at least one of the preferred photos was too large and extended the box.
