<br />
I teach classes online to national organizations. I'm always interested to speak to people from other areas, and I'm good at hearing accents (especially being from North Carolina).<br />
So when I was talking to an organization in Wyoming, I <i>knew</i> this woman was from North Carolina, and more specifically, the Piedmont area.<br />
<br />
When the training was over I had to ask.... "Are you originally from Wyoming?"<br />
"No, I'm from North Carolina" <i>Nailed it! </i>"from Greenville, actually from a small town called Kinston"<br />
<br />
My immediate response... "oh yes, I know Kinston. My whole family is from that area, am related to the Kilpatricks and Mewborns and Webbs"<br />
<br />
<i>Small gasp</i>. "My aunt married a Webb"<br />
<br />
And so it was that on a random training last week, me in Oregon and a woman in Wyoming, we realized that we were related. Not directly, her aunt married a Webb. But I have her aunt & the Webb uncle in my database.<br />
<br />
It's a small small world.

Sometimes I pick a name and research for a day or a week. Other nights, like tonight, I go back to names that are familiar for me and just start Googling, to see if anything new has arrived to the world.<br />
<br />
Tonight, in a random search of all my Great Uncles, YouTube, believe it or not, gives us a video of Art Young killing a moose with a bow.<br />
It's old, it's a "Silent Film" with descriptive slides, and very loud classical music in the background. We're talking about Art Young, 1882-1935. The idea that a video of him in the flesh has survived, much less that someone put it on YouTube.. well, it is a fascinating world indeed.<br />

Today, who knew I'd stumble upon an <i><b>Indian Massacre</b></i>. So I have to share. <br />

Indian Massacres in Taunton, by Gen. Ebenezer W. Pierce<br />
Read before the Old Colony Historical Society, Jan 9 1888<br />
<br />
"....Edward Babbitt, or Bobit as Gen. Winslow wrote the surname, was enumerated among the inhabitants of Taunton who were able to bear arms in 1643, which fact shows that at that date, he was more than 16years old but under 60. <br />
In 1668 he with John Hathway and Timothy Holloway purchased 400 acres track of land in what was then Taunton, but now Berkley. This tract had been the farm of Mr. William Hook and Mr. Nicholas Street. <br />
<br />
Edward Bobit was juryman for Taunton in 1668. He appears to have been married in or near the year 1654. The names of his children: <br />
Edward, July 1655, married Feb 1, 1683, Abigail Tisdale<br />
Sarah, Mar 20, 1657, married Mar 25, 1680, Samuel Pitts<br />
Hannah, Mar 9, 1660<br />
Damaris, Sept 15 1663<br />
Elkanah, Dec 5, 1665, married June 25, 1699, Elizabeth Briggs<br />
Dorcas, June 20, 1667 died April 6, 1674, aged 6 years, 9 months, 20 days<br />
Esther, april 15 1669, married August 23, 1693, Edward Paull. He died July 5, 1740; she died November 15, 1751<br />
Ruth, Aug 7 1671<br />
Deliverance, Dec 15, 1673<br />
<br />
...At the commencement of the Indian hostilities in June 1675, Edward Babbitt and family were compelled to abandon their homes in what is now Berkley, and beat a hasty retreat to one fo the fortified houses not far from the Green in Taunton. There they remained nearly or quite a year when Edward ventured to visit his abandoned and desolate home; meeting no Indians on his way until he had reached his destination, made his examinations and was returning to the fortified house in Taunton, when he learned that he had been discovered by the Indians one or more of whom were following him. <br />
<br />
When upon the high grounds a little easterly the site of Berkley and Dighton bridge, Babbitt despairing of escaping the foe by flight, sought to secrete himself in the top of a tree. He possibly would have succeeded but for his dog that altogether too faithfully persisted in keeping his master company by posting himself at the foot of the tree that he climbed, where by the foliage was hidden from view. Thus the dog betrayed his master's hiding place to his pursuers and he was shot and killed, and his dead body left at the foot of the tree, where the white people found it some time after, and buried it near by. <br />
<br />
The precise spot where the remains of Babbitt were found and buried are still pointed out, and until quite recently has been marked by a slab of dark colored stone upon which was rudely carved: <br />
<br />
BoBeT<br />
KILLeD<br />
JUNe 1676<br />
<br />
A slight depression in the ground is pointed out as all that remains to show were Bobet was buried. I visited the spot June 17, 1878. The gravestone had been removed and was lying beside the wall several rods from the grave. It took considerable time and pains to decipher its inscription, that was rapidly becoming effaced.

When did Ancestry start? Because I was there back when it started and it was FREE. But now finally after being a Paid member for so many years, I finally decided to upload my "tree" to Ancestry.<br />
<br />
I'm still torn.<br />
<br />
I figure, throw it out there for those to find it.<br />
<br />
I still love Rootsweb. I'd <i>thought</i> that Ancestry tied in to Rootsweb. It used to, at least. You'd look someone up on Ancestry, you'd get their Rootsweb submission.<br />
Today, still, you have a Rootsweb tree and you get the Ancestry hints (provided that you're an Ancestry member, of course). So it <i>seemed</i> like the two were still tied together.<br />
<br />
But recently people have told me that they could find ME on Ancestry. Which after 17yrs of having an online database just seemed preposterous, yet... True. My database was not accessible on Ancestry.<br />
<br />
So I did it. I uploaded my tree.<br />
<br />
All my 28K people including thousands of bad data, because you can't have one without the other.<br />
I've tried.<br />
I've purged as much as I can about <i>real</i> people I know about, but so so many years of bad research with no sources and nothing to back it up... is still part of my tree.<br />
<br />
It pains me that I've found yet another venue to perpetuate my years of bad research.<br />
And so, I apologize to you out there for that.<br />
<br />
---<br />
I'm not a fan of the "online tree", as far as the online version housing my notes and sources. MY research is stored in my database, on my computer or server or wherever I have it. I do not want it to be on Ancestry. I'm not a fan of "including this source" into whatever record I find online. I do not want Ancestry to be my house. And I'm quite sure that somewhere in the rules and regulations that I clicked "accept" to without reading, I've now allowed Ancestry to OWN my data. Which I REALLY DO NOT LIKE.<br />
<br />
That being said, I uploaded my gedcom without sources attached. I included notes, not that anyone will really look at the notes pages. Right now, it probably looks like an unsourced tree, which is grossly untrue and unfair. But my fear of Ancestry owning my sources, I'm just not happy with doing that... yet.<br />
<br />
So the few "hints" that I've found along the way - there is something nice and appealing about that little green leaf that appears - I have "added" to my tree. Of course I've manually added to my own database as I move along. Because, well, I've learned better over the years.<br />
<br />
---<br />
I'm also recently not a fan that you can add someone else's submission to your own tree, whether photos or documents. Which it may source it through the Ancestry online tree, I find this oddly EASY to suddenly claim this document as MINE.<br />
<br />
It's not MINE! I've found So many documents and photos attached to Ancestry online trees that so easily get incorporated into my own tree... and they're not mine! This is a LIE to just, with a simple click, attach them to my tree. Someone found that oral history, compiled it, wrote it down. For me to just attach it to my own tree.... it's just wrong.<br />
<br />
I'll say it. It's WRONG. It's TOO EASY. And it's simply not fair to those that have done the work.<br />
<br />
---<br />
So in researching my own immediate family, no surprise to find that not only is my data attributed to others' trees, but so are my photos, which I supplied here on this blog.<br />
<br />
And I'm questioning that a bit.<br />
<br />
I mean, I post a picture of James Barney Webb. I have no more connection to him than any other cousin. Just because I own this picture doesn't make me any closer to him than a cousin out there that has equally never met him. <b>Which is why I share</b>! I claim ownership because I physically own that picture in my boxes and safes of historical documents about my family, but I have no ownership to this man.<br />
<br />
And I'm happy to share.<br />
<br />
Let me reiterate this for myself and everyone out there.. I am happy to share! It is, afterall, what we're all doing here. I posted pictures on this blog and on my personal website in the effort to share. I am SO thankful to people who've shared their pictures with me. And I am SO SORRY for those that I do not give credit - goodness knows I did not document <i>anything</i> for so many years. I am exactly the person I'm trying to stop right now. <br />
<br />
But there's something about Ancestry... maybe it's just my own witness of "it's" changes over the years, that while I want to share, it does bug me when I see MY photo show up on 30 other people's online tree. I don't know what that is, and I'm working on it.<br />
<br />
But as far as my online tree at Ancestry goes, I've now watermarked my images. If you want to research or do a simple google search, you'll find all the same images here on my blog, you can choose whether or not to source them. But just because you can simply "add to tree" to someone in your online tree... I think a watermark is warranted.<br />
<br />
Let me know how you feel about this. <br />

Life does kick in sometimes; it happens.<br /><br />I believe in the sharing of genealogical research, always have. To me, it is the ONE great gift of this vast internet. (oh the Internet brings so many other wonderful things... and so many terrible things as well. The Sharing of Knowledge and Research is one that I will continue to hold on to for some time... I hope). I remain optimistic that we are philanthropically interested... to give back.<br /><br />In my year of not blogging, I have:<br />- responded to nearly 200 personal emails, mainly through my Rootsweb database or through my personal website<br />- fixed over 50 "postem's" to my Rootsweb database<br />- updated my Rootsweb database at least 6 times... I'll admit, it's now been a few weeks, but I'm trying to get back on getting my Most Recent Version ( I try every month, but... life happens)<br />- found an amazing HUGE number of ERRORs on my own, through post-ems, through emails<br /><br />Errors... they're just awful.<br />I despise propagating incorrect information. I regret so much in my youth of being a bad researcher. I'd say nearly 95% of the post-ems and emails I get about corrections are not about my own line... but of lines that are in my database, that came from when I was a horrible researcher and didn't document anything as far as Source. It pains me that I have probably 1/4 of a database of legitimate, documented research... and the rest is really... "internet stuff".<br /><br />Lessons learned. And once in the database, can I clean? NO. No, I have no choice but to upload the whole she-bang and hope that people communicate with me on my discrepancies.<br /><br />So, I'm not blogging. I miss my blogger friends and my blogger world. I miss genealogy research as a whole. My TODO list is just unimaginable right now... but it is the way of it.<br /><br />POINT BEING: I will respond to emails, comments, post-ems. I will fix. I might not be 24/7 online to blog about new research, but I'm still here.<br /><br />"Thank you Jo for all you do and give back".... it's a statement recently said to me, and two things I note: that #1, you know I'm trying; and #2, you don't know my full name which means we haven't communicated over email or anything beyond this blog. And that is OK too! that both encourages me and gives me despair. I give back when I have the chance; and while that's not good enough... it's just how it is right now. I will continue to post everything I know on my Rootsweb. That will remain constant, every few months if not more.Johttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16785239570016194384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7233638358989006163.post-25760679342995229432011-05-22T22:46:00.001-07:002011-05-22T22:49:16.591-07:00Time-Outyes, I'm utilizing a post to offer apologies. But I feel it. It's so sad to see that I haven't posted since February. This is the unfortunate thing of amateur, "hobby" (although that doesn't exactly fit me either and is somewhat saddening), genealogical research. There are high and low points.<br /><br />I'm just busy. Who knew at part-time job at the local Historical Society would become something, honestly, more than full-time. I LOVE IT! I'm in heaven. But it means my time is elsewhere.<br /><br />So, here's my apology. Things will be greatly different in a month, where my nights will be without other commitments, so I'll, no-doubt, have time for research and posting again.<br /><br />I am not gone. Please send me comments and emails. I'll respond!<br /><br />Happy huntingsJohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16785239570016194384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7233638358989006163.post-85497447936817985202011-02-11T11:15:00.001-08:002011-04-04T22:13:16.073-07:00Friday Family Photos - Young Family<div style="text-align: center;">William Gaylord Young was born in Richland Co., OH 1835.

The award was created by Leslie Ann Ballou of <a href="http://ancestorslivehere.blogspot.com/">Ancestors Live Here</a> to recognize “blogs full of tips and tricks as well as funny and heartwarming stories…”<br /><br />I know that Sue at Echo Hill fulfills this, and I am slowly attempting to myself, in this blog, not only showcase my own family history, but some stumbles and leaps I've encountered along the way.<br /><br />To participate you must list 10 things that surprised, humbled or enlightened you about your ancestors.<br />And of course, to pass along to 10 other bloggers out there. I am working on this part and will have a "Part II" updated soon.<br /><br />For tonight, my 10 surprises, humbling and enlightening experiences (phew, where to start?!):<br /><br />1. The LOOPS family, as is my surname and for most of us, where our research begins, started as a "you and your brothers are the only Loops out there" statement. And how even in the beginning's of the internet (way before Rootsweb and the LDS websites) proved nearly instantly that this was not the case. Surprise! There is family out there!<br /><br />2. That our LOOPS came from a family who died on the ship's crossing from Germany, leaving two young boys who DID NOT KNOW THEIR NAME, and were separated when arriving. It was assumed by all current generations that they never found each other.<br /><br />3. My recent (gulp) discovery, when finding the First and Only known picture of my ggGrandfather Frederick Loops, has the <span style="font-style: italic;">"Loops, Milwaukee Wisconsin" </span>logo on his picture. Meaning it was taken at his BROTHER's, Charles Loops, photography studio in Milwaukee. Not only did they find each other, but they met....and Frederick, his son Charles (Charles the first) and Charles' daughter Georgebelle all ventured from North Carolina to visit this "other" Loops family in Wisconsin.<br />How sad that this information gets lost in just a generation. And how wonderful to finally discover! (tears)<br /><br />4. I am consistently humbled and fascinated by researching the LOVEALL family, and that, to date, I have yet to find a LOVEALL that is not descended from Henry Loveall, 1694-1786. We are all connected. This is an amazing family to research.<br /><br />5. In a sappy, sentimental nod, I LOVE that my family has endowed me "Family Historian", not just in that I'm the only who really Does this research and knows all the lines, but that they have enlisted me to be the physical keeper of the family photographs and sentiments. Boxes just keep arriving. And each new box brings a new set of adventures and explorations - and a whole new set of tears.<br /><br />6. My sons' family is a new and I foresee, lasting research project into OLD AMERICANA. It seems that each new name into Dean, Haskell, Hathway, White, Hammond, etc., leads me down another path to American generations of Salem and Plymouth. These make me want to read every historical novel and watch old movies to get a visual glimpse into the garb, the language, the religion, the life that these original American settlers had.<br /><br />7. Humbling that there are still so many road-blocks. I still do not know the heritage of my YOUNG family, or the correct origins of the WEBBs. I love the challenge of still having something to "research", but that it makes you want to pull your hair out.<br /><br />8. Not a surprise, but I am continually impressed with my Great-Uncle Art Young, and the name that he has provided to Bow-Hunting in America. If you are a bow-hunter, you know Pope-Young. That's Art! He led an amazing life. You can <a href="http://www.thefamilyorchard.com/artyoung.html">read more</a> about his adventures <a href="http://www.thefamilyorchard.com/artyoung.html">here</a>.<br /><br />9. As I dive more into my North Carolina roots, even though I no longer live in North Carolina, I feel more and more connected to the families of Kinston, Lenoir County, where Frederick LOOPS settled; who's daughter Lelia married a MEWBORN; who's son Charles married a WEBB, who's mother was a PITTMAN. The history books of the area tell of these families, families of whom I am all a part of. And it makes me want to return, visit, learn, and give a few hugs.<br /><br />10. Impending surprise of DNA research out there, and a lil lady who believes she might be a descendant of our Frederick LOOPS and we shall have the DNA results soon to show whether or not this possibility. That DNA research is even possible in calculating genealogical history is certainly the newest of all research out there. What will this possibly mean in the future, I wonder?<br /><br />There you have it, for tonight. 10 wonderments that have crossed my path in this wonderful adventure.

Howard: Founding Towns was a Family Tradition (SOHS)<span style="font-style: italic;">by Rodney Coleman, regular contributor to Southern Oregon Heritage Today.<br />Originally published in: Southern Oregon Heritage Today, Nov, 2002; 4:11<br /><br /></span>James Sullivan Howard, dubbed "the Father of Medford" when he did on November 13, 1919, was born April 21, 1932, to Sullivan and Elizabeth Howard in Mason, New Hampshire. Educated in Illinois, Howard married Margaret E. Snuggs in 1855. In 1860, the couple and their three children moved to Jacksonville, where Howard became a successful surveyor and civil engineer.<br /><br />In addition to advancing regional development by conducting a preliminary survey for the Southern Pacific Railroad and engineering the COPCO COndor Dam, Howard examined surveys for the U.S. Office in Oregon and Arizona until 1898, and opened a bakery and butcher hsop in Jacksonville's historic Kubli Building in 1875.<br /><br />After fire destroyed Howard's business in 1884, he built a general store near modern-day Front Street between Eight and Main streets in Medford. Howard later recalled that contemporaries criticized his choice of location, at first, calling in it the townsite of "Mudville,", "Rabbitville," and "caparral", but suggested he "laughed last" after he "got in right" with railroad officiallys and witnessed Medford's growth and incorporation two years later.<br /><br />A familiar presence at the Nash Hotel in Medford's early days, Howard became president of the Town Board of Trustees and Medford's first mayor in 1885, postmaster, and Wells Fargo agent. As one of Medford's founders, Howard had followed in the footsteps of his father, who co-founded Wethersfield and Kewanee, Illinois, in 1837 and 1854. However, the "rags to riches" lore associated with his arrival in Jacksonville with "only fifty cents in his pocket" also distinguishes J.S. Howard from other proud and resourceful pioneers of his day.<br /><span style="font-style: italic;"></span>Johttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16785239570016194384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7233638358989006163.post-55067520082278972672010-12-22T09:41:00.000-08:002010-12-22T09:51:53.342-08:00Rogue River Catsup<span style="font-style: italic;">by William Alley (historian and certified archivist)<br />Published in Southern Oregon Heritage Today, Nov 2002. 4:11<br /><br /></span>When Frank L. KNIGHT decided to expand his Portland-based pickle and vinegar packinghouse to include the manufacture of catsup, he spent two years studying the processes involved and seeking a suitable location. Ultimately Knight accepted the recommendations of the experts at Oregon Agricultural College in Corvallis and selected Medford as the location of his new catsup plant. "The Rogue River Valley," Knight was told, "produces a tomato that is particularly adapted to catsup manufacture." By locating his plant in Medford, Knight could turn the tomatoes into catsup within a few hours of their being picked; "That is a mighty important factor in making high grade catsup."<br /><br />The Knight Packing Company opened its Medford plant on the south end of Front Street in the summer 1916. Initial production capacity was estimated at fifteen tons of tomatoes per day, with room to expand to thirty tons in the future. By 1925, the plant was processing thirty-five tons of produce per day, the equivalent of 2,750 gallons of catsup.<br /><br />After harvesting, Rogue Valley tomatoes were delivered to the plant where they were washed in large tanks. They were then scooped onto a conveyor belt, passing by employees who trimmed the tomatoes and removed any defective ones. The fruit was then washed again and steamed before being dropped into the chopper, which separated the seeds and skin; the remaining pulp was then sent to large kettles where it was cooked with onions, garlic, and spices. After cooking, vinegar, salt and sugar were added to make the finished product. The catsup was then packed into five-gallon cans and shipped to Knight's Portland facility where it was bottled in sixteen-ounce bottles.<br /><br />Knight's Rogue River Catsup, the only catsup manufactures in Oregon, was an immediate success. At the end of the first eight years, the company could boast a 75 percent share of the Portland catsup market, and distribution had expanded to include parts of Washington, Idaho, and California. The company even went so far as to copyright the name "Rogue River" in connection with any tomato-based product.<br /><br />The presence of the Knight catsup plant had an immediate impact locally. In addition to providing a significant payroll, the acreage devoted to commercial tomato cultivation soon increased. In 1924, the plant's production capacity was doubled to take advantage of the increased availability. The plant was again expanded in 1936 with the arrival of new, modernized equipment. No longer did the catsup need to be shipped in bulk to Portland for bottling. With the new equipment, the Knight Medford plant was now producing catsup at a rate of fifteen bottles per minute.<br /><br />Knight's Rogue River Catsup flourished in Medford for twenty-five years, but the end came suddenly in the early 1940s. By 1942, the Knight Packing Company had disappeared form the local directories. The October 1925 issue of <span style="font-style: italic;">The Volt</span>, the newsletter of the California-Oregon Power Company, now preserved in the collected of the Southern Oregon Historical Society, gives us a brief snapshot of a now-forgotten local industry.<br /><span style="font-style: italic;"></span><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"><span style="font-style: italic;"></span></span></span></span>Johttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16785239570016194384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7233638358989006163.post-55556125711291315552010-12-20T23:10:00.001-08:002010-12-20T23:16:39.104-08:00Calling Webb Family ResearchersMy ggGrandfather was George Bell Webb of Kinston, NC.<br />He was first married to Agnes Pittman, dau of Francis Marion Pittman and Louisa Mewborn, and had three children: Guy, James Francis "Frank" , and Eva Bell (my gGrandmother).<br /><br />Agnes died in 1883 and he later married her sister Emma, and had two daughters: Agnes Webb Stacy and Carrie Lulu Bernard.<br /><br />My gGrandmother Eva Bell Webb Loops saved so much; so much from the Webb family. And apparently her daughter Georgebelle Loops Smith also did a bit of research and was in communication with the Webb family.<br /><br />I have pictures.<br />I have crazy tons of pictures.<br />I have pictures that I know no one in them, except that they are this WEBB family.<br /><br />Agnes as a child; Carrie Lulu as a child, on and on and on. But these are the two evident from the writings on the photos.<br /><br />I need help. I need someone to tell me who these are - and I can send you the photos too!<br /><br />I'll get around to scanning and posting online. But if you are of this family, please contact me, because I need help. I've been given an amazing gift, and I know this needs to be shared with other researchers.<br /><br />Contact me: thefamilyorchard@earthlink.net<br />And please stay posted here on the site, because I'll be posting photos as soon as I start scanning.Johttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16785239570016194384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7233638358989006163.post-88343500991848525452010-12-20T22:49:00.000-08:002010-12-20T23:08:04.059-08:00They're Just PeopleI am a bit overwhelmed at the moment, but I have to share my adventures tonight into the world of the Loops family. I had mentioned my Uncle Frank's passing a few months ago, the end of his generation of Loops, and the rememberall of our family. He was also the youngest son of Charles I and Eva Webb Loops, and lived near his sister Georgebell who'd passed 15yrs prior. Which means, he had all her "stuff".<br /><br />Today arrived all of their combined "stuff".<br /><br />As the <span style="font-style: italic;">Historian</span> of the family, as my father described it, it just made sense to send everything to me. Everyone else would enjoy a few moments of nostalgia and awe (and confusion and great overwhelmed feelings), and then it'd go into the closet.<br /><br />I feel overwhelmed with the 30lbs of "stuff" that arrived at my house tonight, but I also feel very honored. Eva Bell Webb Loops, my gGrandmother saved; her daughter Georgebelle saved that and continued on with her own genealogy research and more. It is evident in these boxes that I now hold 100+years of pictures, bibles, letters, research, history.... that is our Loops family, and also our Webb family.<br /><br />I get to keep this! And I will. I will scan and digitize; save and save and save. I need more fire-proof boxes, but I will get them. I will put in special folders and files and help document the mix-matched findings that are stored in these two boxes. And I will help create something that can be passed on further. (oh, my dear son, I wonder if you'll even want it... you will have little choice, you know? it's you or your uncles).<br /><br />I haven't digested fully yet what is included in these boxes. I will have much more to say as I dig deeper. Tonight was simply a 3hr look over everything, and then back in your box you go.<br /><br />But it's overwhelming. So long to research a family and to now have faces to that family. Here you are, George B. Webb, in photo. Photo after photo, there you are. You were as alive as I am today, with emotions and love of your children and interest in your wife and political ambitions or whatever... you were alive. You are not simply a date in a book... you were a man.<br /><br />Love letters from Charles E. Loops "the first", to Eva, 1901-1903, when they were both young and separated, yet in love and soon to be married. They were both beautiful - I know this now... I have pictures. And their handwriting is beautiful and learned. They were young people in love, and to read the letters between them is beautiful and heart-warming, and confirming that.... they were people. Just... people. Alive and in love, as much I have had romantic feelings in my life.<br /><br />I think sometimes I get caught up in the names and dates. I try to remember the stories, the realities that are our ancestors, that they lived and breathed just the same. But to finally see pictures of their then fashion and hair-styles, read their style of writing, to really see what their day was focused on.... it becomes real. I don't know how I can do this with people hundred's of years back, aside from watching movies that place me in that time, but for now.... at least I have a visual face on my ggGrandparents. It's amazing.<br /><br />SO MUCH more to share as I digest.<br /><br />For now, I'm in awe.Johttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16785239570016194384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7233638358989006163.post-60047864584595655552010-12-18T15:41:00.001-08:002010-12-18T15:49:48.960-08:00Southern Oregon Historical SocietyI just have to post my exciting news.... as an avid amateur genealogy fanatic, that I just got a new job at the HISTORICAL SOCIETY (yay!) is a little piece of heaven for me :-)<br /><br />I will be working with membership/development, first working to fix the database and other techno issues with the society. But soon, working to find new ways of fund-raising and development, getting more people involved, promotion, etc.<br /><br />How exciting!<br /><br />I live in Southern Oregon, but am not originally from here. So my experience with the research library with the historical society is nil. But they have been active for nearly 80yrs. The research library is worked all from volunteers, a very active group who are largely tied to historical communities here. It will be fun and exciting to learn more about the history of this area!<br /><br />And of course, the SOHS is tied in with the Genealogy Society (yay!). There may be opportunities to begin teaching some classes with the two, as well. I already teach genealogy classes through <span style="font-style: italic;">The City</span>, but what a wonderful expansion to consider through the historical society!<br /><br />All in all, a great new addition to my life.<br /><br />I hope to start including some information on Southern Oregon history and fun facts into this blog, as it becomes more of my working life.<br /><br />For now, a few links:<br /><br /><a href="http://www.sohs.org/home.html">Southern Oregon Historical Society</a><br /><br /><a href="http://sohssouthernoregonstories.blogspot.com/">Southern Oregon Stories - SOHS Blog<br /></a><br /><a href="http://www.rvgslibrary.org/">Jackson County Genealogy Society/Library</a>Johttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16785239570016194384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7233638358989006163.post-59350848351171832932010-11-29T20:32:00.001-08:002010-11-30T14:48:56.232-08:00Finding Henry Loveall (perhaps NOT Desolate Baker)For those of you LOVEALL family researchers, I need to take a moment to share the newly published, <a href="http://www.hdsgenealogy.com/updates/">LOVEALL REPORT: The Descendants of REV. HENRY LOVEALL, an Able and Worthy Preacher (1694-aft 1772)</a>, by Gaynelle Moore. Purchase, Read, Learn.<br /><br />Having just received my own copy of this, I'll not give anything away, except that as she previously commented on my prior <a href="http://thefamilyorchard.blogspot.com/2010/08/monday-madness-henry-loveall-aka.html">Henry Loveall post</a>, there is little supporting evidence that his name was Desolate Baker. Furthermore, that there is little EVIDENCE supporting the claims and slanders that he was "licentious" or removed from Baptist ministry because of behavior.<br /><br />Where there is MUCH information available out there on this icky behavior, Gaynelle has researched (with the help of a professional genealogist) the life and times of Rev. Henry Loveall and attempts to prove that the history we have all been working from for so long is UNTRUE. That he was an "Able and Worthy" preacher, despite slanderings now reprinted in history books.<br /><br />Please take a look. Decide for yourself. But at least give it a gander before further publishing the perhaps incorrect historical record of Henry Lovevall. Let's put this to rest and offer what is FACT to the Loveall family.Johttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16785239570016194384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7233638358989006163.post-56355653305591908962010-11-28T12:18:00.000-08:002010-11-28T12:50:24.569-08:00Resources #1Just wanted to throw out some Google Books resources that I've been finding (for you, and as a place holder for myself!)<br /><br /><a href="http://books.google.com/books?id=H41PAAAAMAAJ&pg=PA251&lpg=PA251&dq=%22job+haskell%22+hammond&source=bl&ots=gRoM55dnLQ&sig=qJct_eb3dURGhKpEdgCq9eHrlwU&hl=en&ei=fbjyTLyDGYj2tgOV4MjdCw&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=6&sqi=2&ved=0CDkQ6AEwBQ#v=onepage&q=%22job%20haskell%22%20hammond&f=false">Descendants of William Hammond (of England)</a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfSbN4dO0FbCGPPGoIJ8lU6c8NPgkWjjZWN3FP6D68hUT2tgqJitPv-7gyoMwUUNSds88VxG36FZg7TBrs65z7sCPi1eTuLQJhJ6j2fiZChHaalTfpnsV_AZKpZVxisxuEz2KJyx57Zf4/s1600/desc+of+william+hammond.png"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 220px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfSbN4dO0FbCGPPGoIJ8lU6c8NPgkWjjZWN3FP6D68hUT2tgqJitPv-7gyoMwUUNSds88VxG36FZg7TBrs65z7sCPi1eTuLQJhJ6j2fiZChHaalTfpnsV_AZKpZVxisxuEz2KJyx57Zf4/s320/desc+of+william+hammond.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5544697867285521698" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://books.google.com/books?id=4IDdaF-3HBsC&printsec=frontcover#v=onepage&q&f=false">Genealogical & Biographical History of Allegheny County (Fryer family)</a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwbvJlTZ_DLr1DnYv1HTpWX4uGfa-Icqa3WaeCE4YATVZoNXwrmIBWrvvfWkHLvfxyM5Y2qKCgz5DTqilflKjtDD1fgghDAMlH4PZTIj8z4694wt21jboIP5895JLMi_bJwXCM5N6KdZs/s1600/allegheny+county.png"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 251px; height: 384px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwbvJlTZ_DLr1DnYv1HTpWX4uGfa-Icqa3WaeCE4YATVZoNXwrmIBWrvvfWkHLvfxyM5Y2qKCgz5DTqilflKjtDD1fgghDAMlH4PZTIj8z4694wt21jboIP5895JLMi_bJwXCM5N6KdZs/s320/allegheny+county.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5544705683300127378" border="0" /></a>Johttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16785239570016194384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7233638358989006163.post-64705588255872104692010-11-22T22:21:00.000-08:002010-11-22T22:38:51.119-08:00Surname Listing - BRYANT (England)I'm counting down my son's ancestors, working with his <span style="font-weight: bold;">7th</span> Great-Grandparents.<br /><br />Today.... #<span style="font-weight: bold;">387... </span>Abthia <span style="font-weight: bold;">BRYANT</span><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"></span><br /></span>4 generations of BRYANT connected through:<br /><br />12. <span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0);">Harry Eugene Dean</span> (1878-1948)<br />13.

He resided in the southern portion of the state where he held the office of Alcalde under the Mexican government. He leaves two sons, both engaged in business at Davisville, and a very numerous circle of friends to mourn his decease."<br /><br />Our Pioneer Heritage, Vol. 1, p.489<br />Agnes Brown and her husband, Edmund L. Brown, were members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. When the call came for a battalionof men to fight against Mexico Edmund was chosen 1st Sergeant in CompanyE., and his wife accompanied him as one of the laundresses.

It almost seems that they're combining Edward Lee with an Edmund Lee, at times. One was married to Mary, another to Agnes.<br /><br />I'm so confused. This is what I have on record from my gAunt through her research.<br /><br />*****<br /><br />Any information on the Brown family would be most appreciated. There MUST be something conclusive, somewhere. I have scoured the internet. I will have to travel. It can only be in person now, to find the answers... unless you have them.Johttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16785239570016194384noreply@blogger.com
