Pages

The Life From The Roots blog topics have changed several times since I began this blog in 2009. I initially wrote only about the family history I had been working on for 20 years. Years later, I was into visiting gardens, historical homes, churches, libraries that had genealogical collections, historical societies, war memorials, and travel/tourism places. I also enjoy posting autographs and photos of famous people I've met or have seen.

Along with my New England roots, other areas include New York, New Jersey, Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin, and the Eastern Townships of Quebec, Canada.

Please check out the labels on the right side for topics (please note, they need work). Below the labels and pageviews is a listing of my top nine posts, according to Google. Four of them pertain to Lowell, MA. These posts change often because they are based on what people are reading.

Colorful Indexes Were My Lazy Man's Way to Research

Before any of the census images were online, you had to go to a National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) location, either in Washington, DC or one of the several branches throughout the United States, to see the censuses. Then to locate your particular film, you could borrow or purchase a census booklet, Population Census Schedule, for the census year you were searching... this method really felt like researching. It was far more time-consuming, yet more rewarding than typing in a name on Ancestry. (Note: the first census had 12 rolls, the 4th census had 142 rolls.)

There was a second way to see what was in a census. It was my lazy man's way, but not everybody could do this. You had to have access to the census books. Fortunately, there was a collection of them at the NARA Boston (Waltham) branch, where all the census rolls were also located. However, the New England Historic Genealogical Society Library (NEHGS) has a much larger collection of books (shown in photos), because they didn't have all the census rolls for the entire United States, as the NARA did. NEHGS made up for the absence of census film rolls by providing these books. The books begin with the first census, 1790 and many ended many years later when the books got too large to continue.

I discovered early on my lazy man's way of research. If I was working on somebody listed in the 1870 census book, I'd quickly look him up in the 1860, then 1850 and so forth. Naturally they weren't always in the same town or state, but for the most part I was able to find many people. Below are several of the books, then an example of the 1790 for Connecticut, which I used many times. The listing appears to go in order of the census taker's visits, so you can see easily the FANs (Friends Associates and Neighbors). However, some census books were done alphabetical (see example).

Georgia O'Keeffe, My 4th Cousin Once Removed, See Her Ancestry

Over three years ago, I posted "Georgia O'Keeffe and Me" a short piece about my discovery that Georgia O'Keeffe and I share the same ancestry. I am now expanding our genealogy. Since, our earlier Field lineage is very long I decided to begin with register generation No. 2, and #6 is our shared generation for Jeremiah Field Ten Eyck.

Our shared Field and TenEyck / Ten Eyck lines are indicated in green (my line) and red (her line). We break off at register generation No. 5.

I am very interested in her Wyckoff line since I have a brick wall (and now have about 100 Wyckoffs in my tree, all connected to other lines, but still not giving me a direct line).

Another discovery is the fact that she was born in Sun Prairie, Dane Co., Wisconsin in 1887, which happens to be where my 3rd great-grandfather lived for many years  prior to his 1879 death.
