Discover Nashville Public Library Video & other Genealogy Library PSA Videos
You may remember a
piece earlier this year about the NY Public Library Milstein Suspense Trailer (a PSA). Though not created with the same humorous
intent, a PSA titled “Discover NPL Genealogy” gives a great look at this
wonderful resource.
Just because we may not “physically” ever visit a place like
the Nashville Public Library, does not mean that we can’t learn some neat
things just by watching a video about it.
Several years ago, when I was researching a family with deep
roots in Davidson
County Nashville
Of course, being the curious genealogist that I am, I had to
then see if YouTube had some other videos that might be similar in terms of
introducing us to the genealogical materials held at a library. I found these:
What others did you find?

Genealogy Book Links
Sometimes it scares
me how many neat resources I “stumble” upon!
It’s nice to think that one can logically and systematically keep up on
the resources that can help us in our quest to learn more about our ancestors –
and, that’s only a nice thought! All too
often I just “trip over” something that I wish I had known about earlier!
Genealogy Book Links is just such a website! Though I have written about sources for
digitized books for us genealogists (Google, FamilySearch Books (formerly BYU
Family History Archives), HeritageQuest, Internet Archive, etc) and places like
Cyndi’s list and Linkpendium which include references to digital books – it’s
nice to find a site which is a “clearing house” across the various
aforementioned and other sites.
Do recognize that as with any site attempting to compile
information, it is not complete and sometimes the links don’t work (the bane of
any genealogy site) and yet I love how the “links” for any found book reflects
the source for the info.
For example, under NC we find books from UNC (UNC Chapel
Hill), ECU, Goo(gle), (Internet) Ar(chive), (Project) Gut(en berg) – places I
am familiar with. There are also books
listed from some sources that have not typically been on the top of my NC
research list such as Op(en)L(ibrary) and Harvard (Bernheim, Gotthardt Dellmann.
History of the German settlements and of
the Lutheran church in North and South
Carolina Philadelphia
There is also a collection of Family Genealogies that you
will want to check out.
Did you make a “find” here that really helped your research?
If so, please share!

Chris O'Dowd to star in Spinal Tap-style series on BBC -- Family Tree
 |
| Image from 2nd article referenced |
The BBC has created
a new 8 episode show, Family Tree, which will be broadcast in the US
Here is a snippet from a published news item ...
Filmmaker Christopher Guest is bringing his humour to the small screen
with a documentary-style comedy series for BBC Two.
Family Tree will feature Irish actor Chris O'Dowd, who starred in hit
movie Bridesmaids and Channel 4's The IT Crowd.
The eight-part series is said to be in the same style as Guest's
mockumentaries, such as the acclaimed This is Spinal Tap and Best in Show.
It will be broadcast in the US
Family Tree follows the recently unemployed and single Tom Chadwick
(O'Dowd) who looks into his ancestry after suffering an identity crisis...
Another piece tells us a bit more ...
Having recently lost his job and girlfriend, Tom has a rather unsure
sense of his own identity. But when he
inherits a mysterious box of belongings from a great aunt that he never met, he
starts investigating his family lineage and uncovers a whole world of unusual
stories and characters and a growing sense of who he is and who his real
family are.
Given the comic “chops” of those involved, it will be very
interesting to see where this goes!
Are there other “comedic” looks at family research that you
have watched?

Girlsʼ names change 7 times more than boysʼ since 1940 Census
 |
| Source -- Social Security Administration (link in article) |
I don’t come cross too many “young” Diane’s and I’m always pleasantly surprised when I come across anyone who share’s my name!
My test of a forename’s popularity is whether you find it “printed”
on merchandise when on vacation! Fortunately
or unfortunately for my children, we never find their names printed on
anything. Maybe I was a little too
successful in giving them unique names!
This comes to mind because last month findmypast.com
published a piece talking about baby names and their popularity as found in the
1940 census and today! Here is an abbreviated excerpt.
The most popular baby
names for American girls at the time of the 1940 U.S. Census have changed since
then seven times more than the top names for boys the same year, reveals a
study by genealogy website, findmypast.com...
Findmypast.com researchers analyzed the records of
the U.S.
None of
the top 10 girls' names in 1940 even make today's top 100, while seven of the
top 10 boys' names do so and three (James, David, William) make the top 20.
"Baby
names are like period pieces", says Josh Taylor, genealogist for findmypast.com. "Some
recall a particular era, which can make them clues when researching family
history."
Back to my name – Diane. I visited the Social Security Administration (Baby
Name Data)
website to learn more about names and their popularity! In the year I was born, my name was 19th
in popularity and the list includes my husband’s name, my sister’s name, her
husband’s name, etc. So, we definitely
seem to be a product of “our generation!”
And, how far my name has fallen! For 2011, the name Diane is NOT in the top
1000 names, though the variant Diana is found in the 203rd spot! I guess I’m more unique than I thought ....

The Dictionary of Quaker Genealogy Terms & Phrases

Whether your

is important to your research. Quakers
did not just interact with one another or conduct business just in their own
communities. This means that if your
ancestors lived near Quaker settlements, you might find this dictionary

Conserving Newspapers by Washing ?!?!?
 |
| Image as appeared with original article |
Conservation and
preservation of long-ago created documents and objects is an ongoing challenge
and of great importance to genealogists and family historians.
I don’t know about you, and I would never have thought that
one might “wash” old newspapers as part of such a process. My immediate thought was that the newspaper
would disintegrate! And, apparently, when
you have the right people with the right know how – that doesn’t happen!
Last month in The Courier.co.uk, the article ‘It might look
a bit scary’ – first edition of The Dundee Courier cleaned up for the future’
starts out with ...
The first edition of The Dundee
Courier appeared in 1816 — and an original copy still exists in the D. C.
Thomson archives. Helen Brown spoke to conservator Emma Fraser
about preserving this rare piece of newspaper memorabilia.
Watching someone handle fragile, friable, almost
200-year-old paper is actually quite frightening for the onlooker. Especially
when it is being submerged — albeit VERY gently — in a trough of water. You
expect it to disintegrate before your eyes.
But such things hold no fears for book and paper conservator
Emma Fraser, who has been working on an original copy of the first Courier from
196 years ago at our Meadowside offices...

Mormon Migration Index
It never ceases to
amaze me how many previously-unknown-to-me genealogy research resources I can
stumble across in any given day!
A recent find is the Mormon Migration Index. We all know the challenges of trying to get
our ancestors documented as they “crossed the pond.”
The journey to Zion America
On this site you can you
can search through personal accounts, passenger lists and logs. The database
includes thousands of passenger records, stories, journal entries, scanned
registry images, and other information. Recognize
that this is a work in progress and so do check back often for additions.
Besides searching for your ancestor on ships lists etc, you
can also learn the history of 19th century Mormon Migration by
reading posted articles.
Though I do not have any Mormon ancestors, I was curious to
see if the database included any entries from Oldham, Lancashire , England
Did you “find” something new to you in this database?
Thanks for Leland
Meitzler for posting about this great resource.
