Life is what you do between birth and death...make it worth remembering. From a single breath to wizened old age all you do will be remembered by someone. Let it be a fond memory. Im a J1c4c Haplotype looking for more.

Ok then I got an odd one. I have dna verified a whole line of 1 common ancestor trying to help locate a birth parent. Yet this male doesnt match to all the sons..and ive verified theyre all brothers. What is up?

Lol they are both my cousins..and Lincoln's law partner is too. And one of the men charged in his death is buried same place as my grandparents.

As much as being told to crawl back where I came from hurt..Im now helping another family member sort his past. Im down to two brothers. Both had relationships with his current surname we just dont see a connection yet.

Lately. My file is on Ancestry with my daughters dna linked to my account as I had to use another company to get mine done. I am praying to solve this he is the last of his line and the only other direct male who did match him has died. We are grasping for straws.

Up records of birth and see or look in old papers as she was from a very prominent family. Im down to this couple as possible parents of this child. I think if true he was placed with Wilson but why? I cannot find much on her first husband to connect them. Dm please as I dont use this site much

The baby died days later. I have a gentleman who by dna should be a Collins but was changed to Wilson 4 generations earlier. Harriet first husband was a Wilson. But the baby im looking at was born in Nov of 1832 far enough into the marriage to be her 2nd husbands child. I need anyone who could look

I need a genealogy angel for Crawford County, Georgia. Im trying to see if there is any record of another child being born to my ancestor Charles Collins 1802 to 1865. He was married in 1831 to Harriet Read Smith 1813 to 1834. We know of a daughter who was born in 1834 in which Harriet died and

Lol I think you and I are cousins! My dna matches were crazy. Sadly my dad was an only child and his family Ive found few seem to have known him.

Knows anything about. Its so heartbreaking seeing a hint that could break my wall behind a blur. And now you limit dna matches to 3 people, doesnt help when its your daughter and aunt and cousin to match to that unknown person. Where I live we have no libraries. So I cant go sit and access free.

Attach to all parties as I hit save before I clicked on folks. And many census records and Find A Grave and BURLS are free but you block those too. I cant subscribe from where im living now due to bank regulations and im one of the dying bunch of Genealogy nuts in the family on a line no one ever

Sources and its going to the become a subscriber page. Is this a breech of contract with your users to deny access to stuff they have on their pages? Im sure you've found some loophole. I attached stuff back when I hardly knew what I was doing and now those records could hold info I missed or didnt

#Ancestry USA why are you blocking my sources I have downloaded and attached over the past 17 yrs? I have been paid and non paid over the years but every source or document was legally acquired on my account. Now when im retired and have time to really work on my family im clicking on my file

In the cemetery of my grandparents is the remains of a man charged in the assignation of Lincoln. I just found a connection to Lincoln through my dad. His law partner is related to my mom.

Get lost again. Ive spent more than 50 yrs but figured it out thanks to DNA..yesterday I got messages from 5th cousins that were positive. But most say hi then drop me.

I heard from a match a yr later. She was one of the highest matches and no clue who she was. Knew it had to connect to my father. 1 never replied but her sister did on another site. She like me was also result of affair and guess didn't want to know the truth. Every close match pretty much told me

I hate when they were named Sarah Jane and were called Patsy! And I now believe that Alcey is a variant of todays Alice.

I can vouch for all the way back to where they immigrated to USA beyond that is a battle ground of genealogy authors.

When I clearly spaced the name and his middle name is a split name Abd Salam but thats where languages conflict too.

14.03.2025 12:20 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 0    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

I always felt it was due to folks not having education, new language, error in clerk recording. My grandfather has a mysterious T on some records, yet swears he had no middle name. My 4th daughter on her birth certificate her father has "abd" added to his first name. Clerk says it was my fault. Why

Ive been busy for awhile but have a question. If some can tell does a blood relationship exists from the following description on my ancestry page?

"uncle of husband of paternal 1st cousin of husband of maternal 1st cousin of husband of 1st cousin 3x removed"

the person in question to me.

I thought about this today a family started with Blanding ended up with a change in 1900 to Blanden how should we treat these? I try to note it but many times ive fixed the error as I see it but its why soundex is useful tool. I know with my husbands surname even here there is dozen spellings when

So Iโ€™ve made more progress on this piece, and I showed it to my kid.

His response: โ€œthat color is spectacular!โ€

And if you knew how brilliant an artist he is - especially with color - youโ€™d have some idea of how hard I cried; that was the biggest damn compliment EVER.
