Starting now, wow. Government is discussing loss of SS benefits. Do not like news anymore. It seems hurt and pain is on a major rise. So have you checked SS records for ancestors information? Have you looked at State records, covering events, places and o those in needbeing saved. Did you realize our ancestors had to build the road in front of their property, so long ago. They also as community built later gave water ttheir bridges and homes many and most times from scratch. They had to maintain them also. Was upset the other day, our government did not want people to fix things to save time and money or sounded like we were not to care. Just charge more, more and more. When young I was a Volunteer Firefighter. Our neighbors barn was on fire. He was at the other end of barn milking cows. Dad was running to the barn to save him and the cows. I was banging on the house door for family to wake up. We passed water buckets and Ultimately we saved most of the cows, the house and lost the barn and corral. When young we learned a shovel and dirt could slow down fire, sometimes better than water. Living in a country envirionment we learned we may be the next in need, whether it was a sudden broken bone, cut hand or leg etc. Sometimes it was just flu or twisted ankle or older age. One learns if someone is in need you step up best you can. We as Americans should remember that from our experiences from WW 2 ON.s Worse a later War brought much unhappy feelings. Thinking our country has not gotten over it even yet. We are blessed, our neighbors are caring. Our community has changed much over the years. I apply much of what I have seen in my neighborhood to how I feel families worked and shared and communicated in days of old. Remember no phone, no tv, some radio and later movies that at half time showed clips of our war. We need to think of our youth and how things were to help us resolve some of our Genealogical issues. Hoping this insight may help your researching in smaller communities even larger ones.

May Hurray, OKAY for MAY

Time to Think of How We Think. I found a saying on Facebook written by ??? but it struck a chord with me. Time to Think of How We Think. On- Webpage, Ancestor Seekers by the Root Bound. Susi's Quarter Susi's Quarter Published • Apr 8 I trust you will go there and read what I wrote. Hoping it will help us all realize we are one people on this earth. We have no opened concrete data if people are other places in the UNIVERSE. My parents taught me to respect all people. Thankfully because DNA shows we have a very distant relationship attaached to many old world groups. Understanding why Dad and his Jewish friend used to tease DAD he had to be part Jewish the way he haggled. Yes he won sometimes also. Yup we are. I hope Dad has met many of our past kin. The DNA makes life far more interesting. We need to let go of some thoughts on ability to welcome more of our truly enlarged families that we do have. OOO I am sure it grates on many and makes others say OOO NOOO. But you can take the royalty of Europe, where many lines crossed and shared and got out of hand at times. You will learn much studying Ancient History. If you are just starting research, it is enough to just sometimes find an immediately family member. It gets more intense with the third and 4th generatios of reseach. Those being your Grandparents or Great Grandparents. Being blessed with a Grandfather whose family had much data known and perserved and saved, it was a great help but still the Cedar River, went over it's banks in Iowa and much data was waterlogged and taken to the dump. WORD of ADVISE if WET FREEZE IT. I have tried with small document to see if it would work it did. NOW whether you have boxes full that is probably another matter. Cousin used hair dryer on some. Called me as he was preparing to take the last batch to the dump. Would love to have society have someone from Archives give us more knowledge on this process. The entire USA has had intense weather and flooding and I am sure many of genealogists and learning to be Genealogists would love to get this type of information for saving their data. We on Mom's side were blessed they kept the family story, at least one of them pretty well intack. Going to start writing the stories Grandad Cecil Leroy Hoffman, used to tell us everytime we went back to Wyo to see family. He would take my two other cousins & I , both male, 1 older one younger than I. Line us up on hay bailer and tell us the same story over and over for years. Alas I am the last of the three left. But that one story proved true when I was helping another person with their research. I am tracking two more stories one is really interesting but not gaining any ground. This was on his wife, our Grandma Inez Mar SCott's side of the family. Do you have old stories you can track and see if true? Do you have memorabilia that leaves you wonder what it was for or why your family has it? Many times you do not need to leave your home to start your research the questions are on the shelves in the drawers or Picture Albums. Jewelry boxes or Glove boxes used for the few pieces of jewelery they have as Inez did hers. I have the glove box Sis has the jewelery item. Same color as her birthmonth stone. Sometimes pictures give clues to past heritage, some times old passed down letters or tapestry embroderied gives you clues I hope this helps you to open your mind to your heritage and background and not be afraid of whom we have been and whom we have become. Thanks for listening. This is my Easter Gift to you all.

Hello, Learned more on JONES today.

LEARNED MORE ON JONES TODAY, HURRAY It seems it really may come to pass with a more filled out tree for female Ancestral lines. I was so excited to find this one email sent to me long ago filed in my completed folder. It was able to give me more data on some of the female married names. It also gives the surnames of more family members for us to locate. So wish they would find Noyes (Nois) Jones and Susan Madison Jones and children picture that I was told hung in the hall of his home. Some one took it home and no one seems to to know whom it went to. DO I want it no, but a copy would give me more facial features to look at to pick out kin. Yes, they seemed to follow each other across the country. It makes sense really. Someone once said were they not speaking, no I do not think that was the problem at all. Knowing there were troubles here and there but not to the point of not talking to each other. When I reached this side of the family on the phone they shared so many stories and gave me others names and numbers to contact and learn more. I have learned there is an error in happenings but it is not a big deal to me. Wanting to find the son who went missing in New York between 1850-55. Noel Jones b 1835 Massachussetts. I never found a death notice so wondered if he just didn't want to go west and stayed east. But was told he was killed and family wanted to leave the area for fresher ground. Later Noyes and Susan lost another son due to the CW. William Harrison died 31 Dec 1862 Stones River Battle. His brother was seriously injured and buried as dead. Was found and nursed back to health and walked back to Illinois. Calvin Fay my ancestor, and Great Grandfather. The home he built was almost like a southern mansion. I have a picture of it taken by a helper. (It pays to have a helper when one can not get there to learn data). I had not done that before. Proven Data. Sadly I am stopped with Teague Jones Sr. and Rahamana, (Indian proven,). I was given data from England on his parentage but now 15 years later they are back peddling. Looking for DNA match down the road. Teague fought Narraganset Indians with Richard Berry . Many records in the Daily Minutes for the Town Coucil meetings. The same applies to Richard Berry also very early kin. 28 October 1645 fought the Indians with a group from Yarmouth. England originally said this: His mother Josian Grey remarried after Christopher Jones Jr died of pneamonia. She married one of the other two holders of the ship. It was a 3 way agreement. She requested trip to America to see the land Christopher constantly talked of. Supposedly married and were taken to Boston area. ????? I beleive that is why we can not find data on Teague and due to his father being very ill he never got recorded per their rules??? Need Ship Records and names of the original 2 plus Christopher Jones. My goal was to find where from and no funds to go to England to learn more. Never dreamt they may be connected. But first notice said yes last group said could not prove. Josian Grey had three marriages is all they told me besides there was a baby. More to follow soon. SusiCP1@gmail.com
