Can your genealogy software provide a list or report with the ages at death of selected people in your database? Preferably the ancestors of a person, in order from most years to fewest years. Or just the top 20 persons, say.
Rather than bumble my way through six different software programs and be embarrassed by my lack of ingenuity, I'm going to ask my faithful and really smart readers to help me out with this task. When I get good answers, I will post them in a summary blog post.
I would appreciate either comments to this post, or emails to me at rjseaver@cox.net, describing the process you would use in your genealogy software program to obtain the list or report that I want to generate.
If possible, I would love to have the process for FTM2008, Legacy Family Tree, RootsMagic, The Master Genealogist, Personal Ancestral File or Ancestral Quest, Reunion, or any other genealogy software. I will post how I did this task in FamilyTreeMaker 16. If you want to send me a screen shot of the results you obtain, please do.
Thanks for any and all help!

Best of the Genea-Blogs - June 29 - July 5, 2008
Several hundred 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 the Carnival of Genealogy, or other 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:
* A Blog Finder Reminder by Chris Dunham on The Genealogue blog. Chris talks about how he updates the Genealogy Blogfinder, one of the indispensable web sites for genea-bloggers and readers IMHO. The statistics about the number of genea-blogs updated, and how often, are interesting.
* The Genetic Mess in California - A Round-Up and My Thoughts by Blaine Bettinger on The Genetic Genealogist blog. Blaine summarizes the situation well, and has excellent answers to the important questions. Read the comments, too.
* Genealogists Joining Social Networks - Is It a Trend Yet? by Dean Richardson on the Genlighten Blog- Genealogy Documented blog. Dean comments on social networking sites, and provides results from his own survey about proposed web site services, including social networks. Unfortunately, the chart is difficult to read.
* 2008 French and Indian War Grand Encampment, Ticonderoga and More F&I From Fort Ti by Tim Abbott on the Walking the Berkshires blog. Tim takes us into the heat of the battles at Fort Ticonderoga with great pictures and stories. Later in the week, he wrote You and Me, Kid about making more family history with his kids - great pieces all!
* Married in 1820 by Michael John Neill on Juliana Smith's 24/7 Family History Circle blog. Michael gives great advice for a persistent problem for all researchers - read it, learn it, apply it, and hope for the best!
* Kinship and Human Society by Carolyn Earle Billingsley on the Life in Possum Holler blog. Carolyn is an expert on this topic, and provides a book review of a new book, Early Human Kinship, which sounds fascinating.
* How to Order a Big Family Tree Wall Chart by Diane Haddad on the Now What? Expert Answers to Your Genealogy Questions blog. Diane provides advice on what to look for, and the questions to ask, before you invest in a large family tree wall chart. I needed this!
* July 4 - Friday from the Collectors: Reading Women's History by Denise May Levenick on footnoteMaven's Shades of the Departed blog. Denise takes us into the classroom and describes her effort to connect teenagers with family history. Excellent work!
* Cook County Vital Records and CookCountyGenealogy Tip by John Newmark on the Translyvanian Dutch blog. John describes and demonstrates use of this new web site. He has some useful comments too.
* Unusual Places to Look for Genealogy by Kathy Jones-Kristof on the Genealogy Help and Hints blog. Kathy posted a great list of unusual resources that might help solve genealogy brick wall problems. A keeper!
I encourage you to go to the blogs listed above and read their articles, and add their blog to your Favorites, Bloglines, reader, feed or email if you like what you read. Please make a comment to them also - we all appreciate feedback on what we write.

The MoSGA Messenger
What is an MoSGA? The Missouri State Genealogical Association, of course!
The MoSGA Messenger is the name of the MoSGA blog, and they have written over 1,000 posts since the blog started in November 2007. Congratulations to MoSGA on this accomplishment of averaging about 4 posts per day.
The MoSGA Messenger blog is different from most blogs, in that it often provides just a snippet of information and then a link to the web page with the original content- it's pithy and terse at times. Go there and see what I mean. This is an effective means of communication - I wish I was more pithy and not as prolix!
The MoSGA Messenger blog is one of my favorite blogs because they post often about interesting genealogy web sites and activities. It is an excellent model of a genealogy society blog that keeps its members up-to-date on the genealogy news of the day, plus interesting web sites to peruse.
Check out the MoSGA web site also to see their programs, their newsletter, their surname list, and much more. If I had any Missouri ancestry, I would join this great society.
It's funny how blogging works sometimes - I started this post after reading about the 1,000th post on their blog on Bloglines, and when I clicked on the link to the blog there was a post about Bloglines linking to my post about Bloglines! Cool.
Thanks for the links, MoSGA, and I wish you many more years of blogging and serving your members, and the entire online genealogy community.
I'm embarrassed to say this, but I don't know the name(s) of the prolific bloggers on the MoSGA Messenger. Martha Henderson is the President of MoSGA. You can read their latest newsletter using the Newsletter web site link.

Ancestrally Challenged - a Texas Death Date/Place
One of my CVGS colleagues is trying to find one of her "Walking Dead" (as she calls them) ancestors - she knows that he's dead, but she doesn't know when or where, or where he is buried.
The man is James Matthew Peace (sometimes Pease), who was born 1n Texas in about 1843, the son of Henry and Rachel (Cole) Peace. James married Susan Cerilla Hendricks on 23 April 1863 probably in Texas, and they had children Osborn (born 27 Dec 1864), Ella Nannie (born 31 Jan 1867) and Carrie (born 31 Jul 1869).
In the 1870 census, James M Peace is living with his uncle (?) B[lackburn] Peace in Shelby County, Texas, while Susan and the children are not found in any census record (so far). Susan was born in 1844 and died in early 1880 in Madison, Jefferson County, Indiana, where her Hendricks and Stapp families lived. In the 1880 census, the three children are living with Ella Stapp in Madison, Jefferson County, IN.
The Henry Peace family is in Goliad County TX in 1850 and Dewitt County, TX in 1860, but I didn't find Henry or Rachel in the 1870 census.
Most of the BMD information above is probably from a family Bible or other paper, which my colleague does not have a copy of, nor does she know where to find it..
My colleague wants to know when James Matthew Peace died and where he is buried.
We've checked:
* www.FindAGrave.com
* www.Interment.net (tough with a name like "Peace")
* US GenWeb Archives
* Ancestry databases
* Ancestry and Rootsweb user-contributed databases
* Google search
Do any readers have ideas for where else to search? All suggestions appreciated!!

51st Carnival of Genealogy is Posted - Independent Spirits!
Thomas MacEntee has posted the 51st Edition of the Carnival of Genealogy on his Destination: Austin Family blog. The topic for this edition was Independent Spirits, and there are articles highlighting really special people in the ancestry or lives of 22 genealogy bloggers. Great job, Thomas, and all of the bloggers!
My own submission was Martin Carringer (1758-1835), an Independent Spirit.
The topic for the next Carnival of Genealogy will be:
AGE: As family historians, we take time to carefully mark the birthdates of our forebearers. We print out family tree charts including this all-important data. We make it a point to note at what age family members have married, had children and passed away.
Take some time to look over the data that you have collected on members of your family tree, and share a story of age with us for the upcoming edition of the carnival. Do you have a member of the family who went to work to support the family while still of a tender age? Someone who accomplished something that was typically done by others beyond his or her years? A couple who married young? A couple with disparate ages? A family member who accomplished something of note at an advanced age? How about family members that lived many years, outlasting many of their relatives and friends?
With the understanding that "age is often a state of mind," share your family story about someone whose story stands out because of their age, either young or old.
Submit your blog article for the Carnival of Genealogy using our carnival submission form. Past posts and future hosts can be found on our blog carnival index page.
Lisa at 100 Years in America will be the hostess for the 52nd Carnival -- the deadline for submissions is July 15th.

Happy 4th of July
Citizens of the United States celebrate the writing and signing of The Declaration of Independence today.
At least one signer had the foresight about what it would mean to his countrymen --
"The day will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival. It ought to be commemorated as the Day of Deliverance by solemn acts of devotion to God Almighty.
"It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires, and illuminations from one end of this continent to the other from this time forward and forever more."
-- John Adams in a letter to his wife, Abigail, following the reading of the Declaration of Independence at Independence Hall in Philadelphia.

For many of us in San Diego, this is a day to go to the beach early, frolic in the waves with your kids, build sandcastles, bury the kids up to their neck in the sand, get snow-cones at the concession stand, walk up and down the beach looking for neat shells, roast hog dogs in the fire rings, have S'mores as the sun goes down, watch fireworks from across the bay, and arrive home exhausted and sunburned. That's the typical San Diego experience. Half a million people here will do it today - and the high temp at the beach will be 75F.
Our celebration of the holiday will be much more subdued, since our kids are gone and I'm very sensitive to the sun. I put up the flag. I'm going to blog a bit, play with Lolo, then I might work on my probate record transcriptions, and reflect a bit on the stories about the Revolution, my ancestral soldiers, the Signers and the Framers. I'll take a nap this afternoon to get ready for our big night out.
We're going down to church in the afternoon for a picnic (hot dogs, hamburgers, chips, dip, veggies, and ice cream), sit in the shade and talk/share with friends, and watch Lolo have fun with the other kids. About 8 PM, after the sun goes down, we'll look up and west - the country club next door has a decent fireworks show that is almost overhead! Then we'll drive one mile home - not sunburned, not tired, and watch the end of the Padres game. Life is a little more relaxed these days!
Whatever you do, I hope that you have a great time with family, friends or just yourselves! Do something fun and relaxing, and I urge you to reflect on the gifts of liberty and independence that we were given by the sacrifices of our forefathers and foremothers.

Genea-Musings Stats for January through June, 2008
I signed up for Google Analytics on January 3, 2008 in hopes of being able to gather more information about the site traffic. I just recently figured out how to get more than the last month's information (I'm not the sharpest iPod in the Technology drawer, I fear) from Analytics, so here is a summary of the first six months of 2008:
* 22, 812 Absolute Unique Visitors (average 127 per day)
* 39,138 Visits (average 217 per day)
* 62,439 Page Views (average 347 per day)
* 1.59 PageViews per Visit
* 00:01:48 Average Time on Site
* 58.13% New visits
Where did these visitors come from? 121 Countries in all - the top 10 are:
* United States - 32,041
* Canada - 2,311
* United Kingdom - 1,754
* Australia - 487
* Netherlands - 377
* Ireland - 366
* Israel - 173
* Germany - 141
* Finland - 129
* New Zealand - 96
Genea-musings "biggest hits" so far this year have been:
* World Records for Number of Children (posted 21 July 2006) - 2,234 views
* 5 Year statistics for Ancestry.com Traffic (posted 25 March 2008) - 711 views
* Family Tree Tattoos (posted 11 January 2007) - 607 views
* John Tyler's Grandson is Still Alive (posted 20 February 2007) - 450 views
* Sam Champion's Roots on ABCs Good Morning America (posted 2 November 2006) - 394 views
* Genealogy Software Reviews (posted 2 January 2008) - 360 views
* Make Your Own Gravestone (posted 29 July 2007) - 346 views
* How Rare is Your Personality Type? (posted 20 June 2007) - 344 views
* "I Am My Own Grandpa" (posted 30 June 2006) - 324 views
* VP Dick Cheney is My Cousin Too! (posted 19 October 2007) - 251 views
My observation based on the hit list is that no one is really interested in my opinions on genealogy articles or web sites or my own family history posts. Quite a bit of the traffic in this period comes from Google (or other) search engine queries. Oh well...
There are more people reading Genea-Musings than just the ones noted above, which come via a link or an URL - the statistics above do not count RSS feeds (e.g., Feedburner, Google Reader, Yahoo Reader, etc.). I am not sure if the stats count Bloglines or not (I think so?). These readers are probably 100% genealogy devotees, unlike a majority of my visitors to the URL that come via a search engine.
To all of my readers - Thank You for visiting and reading. I hope you learn something about genealogy and have a chuckle once in awhile.

Another View of the Blogger Summit
Gilles Cayouette is a genealogy blogger who writes Le chercheur nomade - The Nomadic Researcher blog "about genealogy in Quebec with examples pertaining to the direct descendants of Gilles Caillouet (the Caillouet, Caillouette and Cayouette...)."
Gilles read the posts about the SCGS Genealogy Blogger Summit and posted his observations in French and English, raising some interesting issues and questions. Read his blog post for his observations.
His questions include (my paraphrases):
* Are genealogy bloggers journalists?
* Does the quest for instantaneity affect post quality?
* What about ethics in blogging?
* How can bloggers improve blog post quality?
* What are the opportunities to create both a society web site and blog?
Read the whole post - definitely a different point of view and one that needs to be included in the genealogy blogger "social network."
My thanks to Gilles for emailing me with the link to his blog. I wish I spoke French, but I don't.
UPDATED 11:15 a.m. Gilles wrote me to correct the spelling of his surname and to tell me that he was not at the Jamboree, that he read the comments about the Jamboree online. My apologies for not double-checking those facts!
