A modern woman is explaining to her little girl about pictures in the family
photo album.
"This is the geneticist with your surrogate mother and here's your sperm
donor and this is your father's clone. This is me holding you when you
were just a frozen embryo. And the lady with the very troubled look on
her face is your aunt, a genealogist."

I saw in the 1850 Federal census that my 3x great grandfather, Abijah Hitchings of Salem, Massachusetts, was a “gum copal worker.” After doing a double take, I wasn’t sure that I even transcribed these words correctly, so I called over three other people to look at the image on my computer monitor. It seemed to be very clear, but some thought perhaps it could be “gun” or other variations on known words. We looked up copal, but it didn’t seem to make sense.
So I turned to the Google Book Search.

I have had the pleasure of listening to his talks in the past and own his books. He is informative, delightful and very knowledged.
I haven’t yet finished going over all the material I brought from the Who Do You Think You Are? Live event in London, but wanted to let everyone know about my recent trip. It was really a dream come true in every aspect.
Considered the major genealogy event in Europe, it was important for me to attend the London show - not only as the MyHeritage.com Genealogy and Translation Manager, but also as a genealogist with a great passion for the hit BBC series, now also available in several international

My great great grandfather, the music Professor Caleb Rand Bill came from Nova Scotia to New England with his wife. They had their nine children in succession from New Brunswick, Maine, Boston and then Salem as he moved from place to place teaching music. According to the Bill Family Genealogy, he had three brothers. One died while studying away at Acadia College, and the other two went on a mission to New Zealand. This made sense to me, since their father was the Nova Scotia Baptist preacher R

How many pictures do you possess that do not have a name, date or a place written on the back of the photo? If your family is like my family, you probably have quite a few. I inherited a boxful of such pictures. Some of the faces are familiar, some I recognize but don’t know the

This is the grandfather of my paternal grandmother. He was only 25 years old when he was killed. He was hauling water in big barrels with a team of mules, something happend and he was crushed by a water barrel. He left behind a wife Mary Jane Meneffee, and his daugher Rosa Lee, and his son Walter Earnest.
