EDITOR'S DESK: Castle Garden Website Launched; SSDI Updated; and Virtual School Opens CASTLE GARDEN. The sesquicentennial of the opening of this immigrant depot in New York City was celebrated August 1 with the launching of a new website by CastleGarden.org. It includes a searchable database of 10 million names. Led by Dr. Ira Glazier, former director of the Center for Migration Research at the Balch Institute for Ethnic Studies and Immigration (now part of the Historical Society of Pennsylvania). CastleGarden.org promises to be a vital resource for genealogists, the general public, and for scholars interested in the history of immigration through the Port of New York. Castle Garden: http://www.castlegarden.org/ Battery Conservancy: http://www.thebattery.org/ Historical Society of Pennsylvania: http://www.hsp.org/default.aspx?id=2 Researchers might also find helpful the Castle Garden ships passenger lists, 1855-1890, available at: http://www.rootsweb.com/~ote/ships/castle-garden.htm * * * SSDI UPDATED. RootsWeb offers access to the Social Security Death Index (SSDI), which includes records through June 2005. This database contains several important bits of information on the more 75,532,189 persons whose deaths are on file with the U.S.'s Social Security Administration (SSA), including: social security number, date of issuance, state of issuance, date of birth, date of death, and last address of record. The Social Security Death Index (SSDI) is created from the SSA's Death Master File. It is a database of people whose deaths were reported to the SSA beginning about 1962. However, only a few deaths are listed before 1962 and the SSDI does not include everyone who died from 1962 to the present, but it does list many deaths in that time frame, especially in more recent years, particularly from the 1980s to the present. It is close to being a national death index for the United States. The SSA Death Master File and SSDI are used by leading U.S. government, financial, investigative, credit-reporting organization, medical research and other industries to verify identity as well as to prevent fraud -- and to comply with the U.S. Patriot Act. http://ssdi.rootsweb.com/ http://rwguide.rootsweb.com/lesson10.htm * * * VIRTUAL SCHOOL OPENS.

TIPS FROM READERS: Staying Ahead of Technology By George Ferguson I read the recent posting of the lady who periodically backs up her genealogy off-site -- and to floppy disks. While I appreciate the value of those practices, the best way to execute them remains a nagging concern of mine. The last computer I bought had no way to deal with floppy disks -- (no floppy drive). As technology rapidly changes, I expect dealing with floppy drives could become a more serious problem down the road. I doubt if CDs or DVDs will be a final solution either. Storage on such media followed by some inactivity by the genealogist may leave nothing but some unusual drink coasters for our descendants. I currently back up my files to a "flash drive," which plugs into a USB port. Additionally I back up to a portable external hard drive that plugs into my USB port. Both of these items have very short duty cycles and are not attached to the computer during its normal operation -- theoretically they should have longer life and be less subject to voltage spikes, power outages, etc. that aggravate our workaday computer systems. That said, I don't believe these devices will be around forever, and so I periodically produce some written reports that I keep with my records (and those of our children). Our eyeball drives will likely be around longer than flash, zip, floppy, and hard drives. * * * 1c. USING ROOTSWEB: Using Location to Track Pesky Ancestors Jane (SMITH) JONES is a real estate agent and she knows that the value of a property depends largely on three factors: location, location, location. The most beautifully appointed property won't fetch a premium price if located in a township with an inferior school system, lacking public services, in an area that is unhandy to jobs and shopping; or even if the property is surrounded by others of far lower quality. When Jane began researching her family history, she went looking for her SMITHs and her mother's JOHNSONs and also her husband's JONESes. Alas! She found herself trapped in a genealogist's worst nightmare -- she was looking for extremely common surnames coupled with common given names used over and over, generation after generation, in each of these families. Jane was married to John JONES III. She knew there were two generations of John JONESes before her husband. Why couldn't the family have named them Wilber or Xavier or at least something less common than John? To add insult to injury, Jane's mother's maiden name was JOHNSON and her given name was Mary. Jane decided that her ancestors definitely lacked an ounce of creativity in naming their children. She thought she might never break through the jungle of JONESes, the jigsaw puzzle of JOHNSONs, and the sea of SMITHs. But then she remembered the credo of her real estate profession and thought it might come in equally handy in her family history research -- to focus on locality, locality, locality. Jane had one factor in her favor. Just as her ancestors had lacked originality in naming patterns, they had also lacked the gene responsible for "wanderlust." To the best of her knowledge her ancestors and her husband's as well, had been in the same geographic area for at least several generations. While it can prove very difficult to search for SMITHs, JONESes, or JOHNSONs if your horizons are too broad -- the difficulty can often be overcome if you are able to put the families under a magnifying glass and hone in on a localized geographic area where your SMITHs, JONESes, or JOHNSONs lived. Jane set out to do just that. She headed for RootsWeb mailing lists http://lists.rootsweb.com/ and message boards http://boards.rootsweb.com/ but in addition to the usual surname lists and boards, she decided her ace in the hole would be locality lists for the most localized areas -- townships, towns, and counties -- she could find where she knew her ancestors had been living at certain times. At first, just to get a feel for the type of information that might be out there on the Internet, Jane posted some queries on the relevant locality lists and boards and was amazed to find that those list members with a subscription to Ancestry.com's U.S. census records had found her grandparents and her husband's grandparents on the local census listings. Jane knew she had a lot of research ahead of her and she knew it wouldn't be fair to expect others to do her research, so she decided to subscribe and search the census listing to her heart's content right from the comfort of her home computer. Within a short time between the census records and connections Jane made with others on the RootsWeb lists and boards who were also searching other branches of the same SMITH, JONES, and JOHNSON families, she made more progress -- and faster than she ever dreamed was possible. Next, someone on one of Jane's subscribed lists suggested she check out RootsWeb's WorldConnect family tree program (http://wc.rootsweb.com/) and try using the Advanced Search link. It allows specifying location of birth, marriage, and/or death, which is a handy feature especially when looking for matches to common names. Jane knew there would be no point in going to WorldConnect's main page (or worse the main RootsWeb page) and just typing in the name SMITH or JONES in the search box. But in her case where the given names were also extremely common, even entering a full name wouldn't narrow down the searches enough. Confining the search to records that matched the chosen locality did the trick. By specifying locality Jane made use of Soundex (surname) searches and tried to find misspelled names and variants such as her granduncle Sylvester SMITH who often used the SMYTHE spelling. Well, la de da, thought Jane, surmising that granduncle didn't find SMITH good enough for him. One good thing about granduncle Sylvester though -- once she had caught on to his use of the SMYTHE spelling, Jane found that the unusually uncommon given name (in her SMITH family at least), coupled with the fact that Sylvester always lived near the rest of her SMITH family, she was able to zero in on the Johns and Josephs and Marys of the family by looking for Sylvester first on the census records. Jane decided that when you are researching common surnames and common given names, you have to adapt and be clever in your searches or those pesky ancestors will elude you. She also learned another valuable lesson: That in common-name genealogical research, just like in real estate, the three most important things are: location, location, location -- and the smaller the geographic boundaries you can narrow the search to, the better the chances of success. 2. Connecting Through RootsWeb. Thanks for sharing your stories. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Faded Images of the Past Link Families By Frances Willess In 1918 my dad, Fay BARKLEY, rode a bicycle from Bell County, Texas to Okfuskee County, Oklahoma, and spent a year with his aunt Isabella (BARKLEY) DAY and her family. His cousin Alza taught him to use a camera, and they spent the year making pictures that were his pride and joy (he later became a professional photographer). Although they are very faded now. I have his old album, and regret that few of the pictures have names written on them. In 1999 I posted a note on the Okfuskee County message board that I had the old pictures, and listed the few names I had. I never had a response to the message until about a month ago, when I had an e-mail from the son of one of the men in the pictures. He had no idea his dad had lived in Okfuskee County until he got a copy of his World War I draft registration card. I have been able to send him pictures of his dad and aunt and found we have something else in common. My dad always told of receiving his induction notice to report to the train station on 10 November 1918. After sitting on the train all day with a group of other men, they sent them home for the night. The next morning when he reported back to the station, they sent them all home. The armistice had been signed. I have his discharge papers dated 12 November 1918. The other man had told his children the same story. Another coincidence is that when my oldest sister was born, Daddy named her Alza for his cousin Alza DAY, who died in 1923. The friend also named a daughter Alza. In telling Alza DAY's niece about this correspondence, I learned that in growing up in Okfuskee County she had known some of the other people in the pictures and she has found another family who would like to have some of the pictures. After receiving so much from other people, it makes me feel good to be able to help someone else. It also shows the importance of sharing your information on the Internet. I wish my dad could know what happened to his cherished pictures. ======================== Advertisements ============================ BOOK NOTES.

FROM ROOTSWEB REVIEW'S BOTTOMLESS MAILBAG [Editor's note: The opinions expressed herein are those of the authors and are not necessarily those of the editor or of RootsWeb.com]. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ In the Pink Research By Patricia Hughey While attempting to find an ancestor in the 1870 U.S. census named James Pinkney MULLINS (he used "Pink" as his nickname) I tried using the wildcard "Pin*" in Alabama where he was born. I didn't find him but after perusing over 600 names I had a good laugh at some of the unusual combinations: The first one I noticed was a young lady of nine named "Pink Hand" in Macon County. She was followed later by "Pink Wood" in Autauga, "Pinkney Pinkney" and "Pink Horn" in Barbour and "Pink Bean" in Bullock. Mr. Bean was not to be outdone by "Pink Hawthorn" who hailed from Evergreen, Conecuh County. Greene County had "Pink Dew," "Pink White," "Pink Green," and lastly, "Pink Lavender." In Jefferson County lived a man called "Pink Snow." And just when I thought it couldn't get any better, along came a little girl named "Pink Ice" from Madison County! So even though I didn't find my ancestor these names kept me pretty amused. * * * Saving Our Genealogies By Jeanne Park I would like to comment on suggestions for backing up files. I am 75 years old, and I remember the time when my grandparents had oil lamps to see by and an insulated box on the back porch which the iceman filled with big squares of ice. I love all the things electricity provided for us today. My computer is a dear companion and my files are legion. They are all backed up on CDs regularly, and each child has a set of these CDs in her safety deposit box. I do not mean to sound like doom and gloom, but if you had no electricity at all, those CDs would be of no value. I decided that there should be at least one paper copy of all my genealogy information -- and I have a large file. It is not easy. You can do outline descendant trees or registers for each main line. But then you have to do many separate files to pick up all the other lines that don't show on a direct line. It took me a week or so to decide what and how and then to print. But now I have three of the very large loose-leaf notebooks that contain -- I would guess -- 80 per cent of the names and relationships in my files. I am glad I did it -- and I hope no one ever needs to open those books. I hope no one ever has to use it because I hope we are never without electricity. But there is an even better reason for never wanting to use it -- it has no index! * * * Coping with Ancestral Disappointments By Bruce Roy in Wollstonecraft, NSW Australia http://www.broy.bigpondhosting.com/Bruce_ftree.html http://homepage.mac.com/broy4/wc_idx/sur.htm A chap called "Gus" came to the 2004 school reunion for Blackheath and Thornburgh College in Charters Towers [Queensland, Australia] with family stories about his great-grandmother. She had apparently been murdered, beaten to death, and the body stuffed into a barrel. Two men were accused but were acquitted. And, he added with that false sense of embarrassment that reveals an exciting, sordid element in the family story, she was the madam of a brothel. A relative had failed to find the grave at the Charters Towers cemetery on the Lind Road, but Gus had a contact who claimed to have succeeded. And sure enough, there it was. Merely a grave number embedded into a block of concrete (once the dust had been removed), but tangible evidence of her existence. Now off to the courthouse to see if there were any records of the trial. No, not in Charters Towers. Try "The Northern Miner" -- being such a sensational event, it would surely have been reported in its pages. No, its records did not go back that far, but James Cook University had them and so did the local family history society. Gus contacted the latter and soon had newspaper articles. But having told half of the school reunion crowd of his family's sordid past, it was a little deflating to find that she was just an old lady who fell down a step so steep that it required a trunk to be used as a stepping- down point. Which was her undoing. She was alive when found and could verify that she had not been pushed or beaten. Gus even found the house and the offending step. Family research can be so disappointing sometimes! 8. Humor/Humour: Pity Me ------------------------- Thanks to: Mary Jean (Pearson) Elliott on Galiano Island, BC, Canada Pity Me -- a locality in Framwellgate, Durham, England is -- is where my father, Ernest PEARSON, was born in 1887 (it's recorded on his birth certificate). Needless to say he used his birthplace name to his advantage in his lifetime. My dad, having a wonderful sense of humour, emphasized the name of his birthplace when he married my mother. I have since discovered that "Pity Me" is a contraction of the original name of "Petite Mere" -- meaning a "small lake" named originally by the French.
