PRESIDENT'S PAGE

1985 has been a good year for SGS in spite of the loss of our dear Les Gallaher in August. We have gained from opportunities to learn from one another and fellow­ ship with others of the same interests. You can help to make 1986 even better*

As genealogists, you are aware of the benefits of sharing source materials. By helping to build our collection of research materials at SGS headquarters/library, we are helping each other. We need all types of materials such as family geneal­ ogies, town, county and state histories, vital records, bible records, maps, micro­ film and mi cro.fi sch. Donate copies of your family group sheets for our filesi this is a great way to distribute the information to a large group of searchers and also insure their preservation. We have a good start on our collection of materials on families who arrived in the Seattle area before 1900. A big THANKS to those of you who have so generously shared with us so far. Our aim is to obtain material that is not readily available in printed or book form.

When spring arrives, we will be heading out on several "cemetery safari es18 to Lakeview Cemetery where our "centennial project" is in progress. Give us a call if you would like to lend us a helping hand and have some fun, too.

My special thanks to those of you who continually express your ideas and.to the many wonderful people who have put tn untold hours of work to make our Society strong. God Bless! Carolyn Farnum, SGS President Page vllO SEATTLE GENEALOGICAL SOCIETY BULLETIN Spring 1986

GENEALOGICAL RESEARCH STRATEGIES FOR SPECIAL PROBLEMS

by Arlene H. Eakle, c.1985

(NOTE: At the close of Arlene Eakle's August 1985 seminar in Seattle, she gave SGS permission to print the following selected material from that seminar. We appreciate the opportunity to do so and SGS member Sue Eidal for acting as liaison.—Editor)

INTRODUCTION

Finding the right ancestor in any given research project is often the direct result of selecting the right research strategy. If you search the right records for the right period of time in the right place, you will locate your ancestor.

There is a tendency among inexperienced researchers', however, to use a general, broad approach at a time when a mass of data to wade through only obscures who is the correct person. Or to select a specific, narrowly-focused search when to identify an unknown ancestor you must review all possible candidates.

The research strategies presented here have proven successful with a variety of difficult pedigrees. While they are not the only ones you could use^ they are outlined in some detail so you can select those rrtost likely to extend your ancestry to other generations*

ANALYSIS TOOLS

Specific tools can help you keep track of your evidence and fit it together to reveal the right ancestors as you research the records. These include source checklists, family group sheets and pedigree charts, and an identity graph or chronology chart with a variety of applications. These allow you to divide your evidence into manageable chunks for thorough analysis. They will also reveal discrepancies, errors, mismatched generations and other problems in both your research and in your evidence. .

GENERAL STRATEGIES

Preliminary Survey (what others have already compiled):

SOURCESi Family Group Sheets International Genealogical Index Family Histories (local genealogical society library, Library of Congress* and other libraries) .Expanded Survey;

SOURCES^ Periodical Indexes Surname Registries Vital Records Printed Sources IL S* Federal Censuses Family Records in possession of libraries or archives Page 116 SEATTLE GENEALOGICAL SOCIETY BULLETIN Spring 1986

GENEALOGICAL RESEARCH STRATEGIES (cont'd)

ACTION* A) Discover what others have compiled and search survey sources not yet used by others.

B) Why? To save time, money and prevent duplication. Work from the known to the unknown* Plan all searches carefully. Search compiled records, and use original documents for corroboration of facts.

C) What do you get? Clues to keep you going when others give up. Aim for 100-300 years of traced, proven genealogy and completed family units*

D) Evaluate your data according to jurisdiction (under what public vs. private domain)| what does each say about the ancestor? What are the differences? Where are the gaps?

Family Unit Approachs

SOURCES: Marriage Records, Census Records, Tax Rolls, City Directories (urban), and M1l1t1a Lists

ACTION: A) Take every person with surname of interest through the marriageso Sort marriages chronologically to match census decades.

B) Search census records looking for these couples and copy they family units.,

C) Ask: Who is who in the local community? Watch for: ~ matching occupations ~ possible kinship networks and their relationships to each other ~ families traveling the same migration routes from place to place ~ periods of time the local records can be searched with some degree of success ~ possible spellings of surnames and their variants ~ consistency or lack of it of given names among related families ~ number of persons for each surname you will most likely encounter and the approximate time it will take to search the other local records for those names ~ identities of women (# of children, # living, second marriages, maiden surname clues, women employed outside the home) ~ occupations needing special approaches ~ clues of immigrant and ethnic origins

SOURCESi Surviving courthouse records* Family and home source! Vital records Cemetery records Census records Church records Military records Business records Newspapers Finding aids (indices) Compiled biographies

^#nat to do if there was a courthouse fire and /ou fear records have been destroyed? Spring 1986 SEATTLE GENEALOGICAL SOCIETY BULLETIN - Page 117

GENEALOGICAL RESEARCH STRATEGIES (cont'd)

A) Ask: What records were saved, if any? Determine this using inventories*

B) Substitute duplicate copies or sources that supply the same data: abstract companies for deeds and wills, courts of appeal for court records, newspapers for legal records and marriages.

C) Check for copies of records made before the fire—by genealogists DAR members, county transactions in new county areas, etc.

D) Check for recopied documents—deeds and mortgages, tax assessments, etc.

E) Check post-fire records which trace property title and refer to earlier legal transactions or boundaries. Maps and plats are especially useful.

F) Trace jurisdictional history of area; where are overlaps that records might cover?

G) Consult a good county history; check for footnotes and bibliographies, and especially watch for appendices*

H) Go on to search state archives and federal records.

Shake your ancestor out of the family tree!

SOURCES: Census Records, Deed Indices,. Tax rolls City Directories Other Lists: Militia Rolls Jury Lists Processioning Lists (by locality and not indexed) (??) Voters' Lists ' AIS Indices if uncommon name or family stays in one place for long periods Wills (least reliable since they cover only 50% or less of the population and only 18% of the women) Passenger lists will not work!

ACTION:

A) Search the sources, then draft a chronology chart asking:- Hien does individual first appear on the list? Come of age for obligation? Move into an area? Acquire property and obligation? When does individual disappear from lists? Move away? Die? Pass age for obligation? Become exempt? B) Identify all potential ancestors; watch for men with the same initials as a given name (especially common in SC, TX and parts of midwest)*

C) Eliminate all contenders except one (hopefully!).

D) You must review negative evidence to draft valid conclusions* Page 118 SEATTLE GENEALOGICAL SOCIETY BULLETIN Spring 1986

GENEALOGICAL RESEARCH STRATEGIES (cont'd)

E) Zero-in on potential ancestors and search every source, every entry,

DURING YOUR SEARCHING, ALWAYS ASK? WHO? WEN? WHERE?

WO: Draft a surname list* Include all pedigree surnames who lived in that locality. Add surnames of parents to check just in case parents died there or lived there for a time or in case uncles and aunts (brothers and sisters of parents) also lived there. Often the families of husband and wife will be known to each other long before the families are united in marriage,

WEN: Identify time period. How long did the children live in the locality? Wen did the surname first appear in the locality? Wen was the county formed? Estimate the probable marriage date of the parents; search to that date and stop for analysis.

WERE: For New England states = town. For Louisiana - parish. For all other states = county, township and town.

WAT RECORDS: Every source on the county level for stated time period; selected sources on state and federal levels; every source in proximity on local level™ cemeteries, mortuaries, etc. Taking potential family members out of unindexed records can be a timesaver as well as a means of identifying the right ancestor where there are two or more of the same name.

ANALYSIS: Fit the evidence together jigsaw fashion. Mix and match family units, parents and grandparents. Select the "weightier" evidence to prove relationships, like cross-generational data. You will have three generations of information if you have outlined and searched properly.

SPECIFIC STRATEGIES

For Cross-generational searches: Deeds and Land Records, Wills, Orphan Court Files, Family Letters and Bibles9 and "Tradition." A case for searching siblings and other family members; watch for transfer of property from grandfather to grandchildren.

Were did the children go? Search Census Records^ County Histories and Newspaper "Gossip Columns". Especially important for tracking elderly parents to their places of burial. Record places of burial for youngest children who may marry late in life; they often care for the parents before and after they themselves marry.

Family Sources/Family Traditions: Each new surname added to the pedigree opens up a new need and a new set of family sources and traditions. The best sources may carry a different surname that you know.

Ancestry by Occupation: This technique not only identifies an ancestor's occupation but can be a source of great additional information about he and his family, including: (continued on page 126) Spring 1986 SEATTLE GENEALOGICAL -SOCIETY BULLETIN Page 119

LETTER TO PRESIDENT ABRAHAM LINCOLN Contributed by Joanne S. Babcock Dear Society, Several years ago when I was first starting to research my husband8s family I sent to the National Archiyes for a copy of my husband's great grandfather's Civil War record. When I received the material * in it was the letter written to the then President, Abraham Lincoln, by jpy husband's great grandfater ELIAS BABCOCK. Of course I was excited to have such a letter written to my icjal . But more than that I think that after you read it you will be able to understand how sick, not only physically but mentally, he was. He wasn't even allowed to stay in one hospital until he recovered but was moved from one to the other over many miles0 Mr. Lin­ coln received the letter and through the Surgeon General refused the request, stat­ ing that he had checked into the matter and that Private Babcock was fit for duty at that tiem. Elias Babcock was discharged Juen 14, 1865. He returned to Piatt Co*, 111. and to his family. Sometime in 1869 he moved his family to southeastern Kansas, and on December 24, 1869 he was one of the first to homestead on Chetopa Creek, Wilson Co., Kansas. The family was driven out of the area by the Osage Indians shortly after but a year later returned and farmed the land until his death on February 26, 1880. He never recovered from the Civil War fully and it was in part the reason for his death at age 63. Enclosed is the letter copied just as It was written. I have not changed a thing. The hardest thing in copying it was not to capitalize the "Ts". Joanne S.

Dear Research Helpline:

Nathaniel GOOKIN was born 22 Feb 1742, probably in NH, and died in Boscawen, NH, on 18 Nov 1825. He married Mary CLARK (1742-1831) on 18 Jan 1766 in Newbury­ port, MA, where he was working in a shipyard. Their first child, Samuel, was be probably at Newburyport on 25 Aug 1767 and several others were all born at Bosca­ wen, NH. I need parents and place of birth for both Nathaniel and Mary. The "Boston Evening Transcript," 16 Oct 1912, #2890, says Nathaniel was probably the son of Daniel (b. Hampton, NH, 31 May 1720, d. intestate in Bostin on 2 Jan 1752, no marriage record has been found). Daniel was the son of Rev. Nathaniel and Dorothy (COTTON) GOOKIN and was a printer and bookseller in Boston. The DAR says Nathaniel was actually a GOO GIN b. in .Durham,. NH, the son of a tailor named Nicholas. (The writer also relates the results of her contacts with Richard N. G00KINS, author of the book "History and Genealogy of the GOOKIN family of England, Ireland and America," (c. 1983), He has concluded that this Nathaniel was a BOOKIN rather than a GOOGIN, but could not prove his ancestry,) L,WBM.

Dear L.W.M,:

New England records have been highly organized and thoroughly researched by man„y gen^ e alogists; however, that is not sufficient cause to give up in your search for proof of Nathaniel GOOKIN's ancestry* Two record sources that are often over­ looked are land records and guardianship records. Postulating that Daniel GOOKIN (1720-1752) was Nathaniel's father, we would suggest the following approach:

You indicate that Daniel was a member of the Ancient and Honorable Artillary Co. in Boston; this would indicate that he was highly regarded in the community and probably was a landowner. Search for land records in and around Boston dated near his death date in 1752. If you're lucky, his land was divided among his heirs* Since Daniel died when Nathaniel was only 10 years old, if they were father and son, there would have been a guardianship record somewhere, probably in or around Bos ton.

You indicate that Nathaniel was born "probably" in NH but give no reason for that assumption. If he is the son of Daniel, it is more likely that he was born in the Boston area.

BOOK REVIEWS

These "regular" book reviews are by Bulletin Staff. Marjorie Sansone, B.R.Editor.

"A Mountain of Names," New Yorker Magazine, 5/13/85; "A Reporter at Large/8

The May 13, 1985, issue of The New Yorker Magazine carried an article under the section "A Reporter At Large7irTntTTl^^ of Names," It is a long, rather discursive piece spread over 25 pages^ yet if you are a family researcher, you will read it with great interest and will probably want to refer to it again, thus copying seems worthwhile. The author, Alex Shoumatoff, who has done some researching on his own family pedigrees, approaches the subject from a broad per­ spective and cites many sources in this well-researched article. I found out (belatedly) about this article from a non-genealogist friend who wanted to talk about pedigree collapse. After confessing my ignorance, I tracked down the source of his information, and to be sure, the author starts off with pedigree collapse, quoting Robert C. Gunderson, goes on to Robin Fox on close cousin marriage, and then to demographer Kenneth Wachter on probability models for progen­ itor duplication. If the mathematics of descent are not your cup of tea, press on, as Mr. Shou­ matoff next reviews the history of record keeping, mentioning various national and sectarian records. Inevitably we come to the early 19th century and to Joseph Smith and his visions. He recounts how Smith came to expound the doctrine of baptism for the dead. Whatever our religious orientation, we can be grateful for this event which inspired Smith's industrious followers to their astounding genealogical labors. Shoumatoff spent some time at the Genealogical Societyof Utah and is able to explain something of the rituals that connect the beliefs of Mormons to such happy manifestations as the IGI and the Granite Mountain Vault, His discussion of the Aquisitions Division is alone worth the trouble of acquiring this article/ The extraction audit, the labors of the GIANT to catch duplications, and the concept of the uniqueness factor of a person's name are subjects of great interest, despite their complexity. The practical aspects of genealogical research in law and hereditary disease are also touched upon. Mr. Shoumatoff ends by musing on the apparently serene mar­ riage of computer technology and genetic research with 19th-century creationist millenialism. His attitude here, as thoughout, is a masterful blend of iconoclasm and respect. A copy of the article will be available at SGS in the vertical files under "Genealogical Society of Utah," --Wen on ah Finch Sharpe

BUILDERS, BREWERS AND BURGHERS: Germans of Washington State, by Dale R. Wirsing. rriWTT^Ey^tHenJas^^ State^5^ Commission. 74 pp. Contents, illustrations, Appendix & References.

This brief book describes how German immigrants to the Northwest U.S. helped to form and build the society we have today. Three such eminent native Germans were John Jacob As tor, Henry VI Hard and Frederick Weyerhaeuser, of whom we are all aware although maybe not to the extent we find out while reading this book. Several chapters from this book, which reads like a historical novel, are: "Builders of a New State," "The Wanderers Find a Home," "The Germans and Their Faith," "A Renewed Interest in German Culture," and "The German Legacy." Even if you did not have German ancestry who emigrated to the northwest corner of the U.S., this book gives good background as to their influence in our community0 They did not all make millions or create gigantic industry, but their mark in certainly still within the framework which binds all us northwesterners together. For further reading, the list of references is very helpful. A CHILD'S GUIDE TO GENEALOGY: How to Begin a Family History, by Alexis Ann Kolb XoflJe^^ South King Coa Gen.

A GENERAL INTRODUCTION TO,DOMESDAY BOOK, by Sir Henry Ellis. c»1973 (orig« 1133^ , 11=543 pg.; both volumes indexed; some foreign language included. Hard-bound, (#1640)

The Domesday is Britain's oldest public record and the true starting point of English genealogy. It-is a land and population census during the time of Edward the Confessor (d.1066) and William the Conqueror* The author's work is designed to throw light upon the holdings of lands as well as instances of hereditary descent of land from those who had possession in Saxon tires. Distinctive terms are defined such as "hide of land"--a measurement that varied "as much as was sufficient to the cultivation of one plough." "Hundred" means 100 hides of land. In other usages in this book, hundred can mean 100 men, 100 villages or an officerss title. Of the 1098 pages, only 360 pages give general description, Many of the quotations and footnotes are in Latin and a few in French and languages used in England before the year 1000. The other 738 pages are four indices: besides the concluding "General Index," we find three indices called the qreatest achievement of the work: 1) Index of Tenants plus holders of manses in towns and other persons omitted previously, 1500 names in alphabetical order; 2) A second index of 5000 persons who had held lands before the Conqueror's Survey; 3) The third index of 3000 persons in actual possession as under-tenants in 1086^ the year that the survey was actually made. In addition, there is an abstract of the population of the counties of England at the time of the survey. For readers interested in seeing how the inform­ ation is recorded in the Domesday, they can see facsimile pages in the Suzzallo Library at the University of Washington, This survey was accomplished in a very short period of time; it was ordered in 1085 and completed in 1086 in two volumes,

MARRIAGES OF SOME VIRGINIA RESIDENTS 1607-1830, by Dorothy-Wulfeck. -.0.1967, rep.l91JB7Trn^^ P9« Contents, indexed, hard-bound. (#6513)

This set was originally a seven-volume work and has been combined into two volumes. It contains records of approximately 40,000 marriages with references to about a quarter-million individuals and derives from Bible records and references found in wills, deeds, court suits, orphans court records and the traditional parish records, marriage bonds or ministers8 returns sources. As a rule, the marriage records relate to, three classes of people: 1) those who were married before settling in Virginia; 2) those who were married in Virginia; and 3) those who married after moving from Virginia to another colony or state (particularly helpful in determining the colonial origins of ancestors who removed to states like Kentucky, the Carolinas, Georgia, Tennessee, Missouri and Indiana), In general, each entry derives from two or more sources and consists of'some or all of the following: names of bride and groom* date and place of marriage, names of parents, sureties, and bondsmen, place of residence, and a specific source- citation. Brides and groans are listed in a single alphabetical sequence, and all other persons mentioned in the records are separately indexed* It consists of typewritten- pages, reduced and photocopied, and is completely legible. For those of you who are searching for people who lived in Virginia from 1607 to 1800, this is a gold mine! Page 152 SEATTLE GENEALOGICAL SOCIETY BULLETIN Spring 1986

GPC BOOK REVIEWS (cont'd) OHIO SOURCE RECORDS, originally published by the Columbus Genealogical Society in 1937, c.1986. Contents, indexed, hardbound. 666 pg. (#4308) Ohio Source Records is composed of articles from "The Ohio Genealogical Quarterly," a periodical so scarce that not even the Library of Congress has a complete set. It was published from 1937 to 1944, and by the time it wound up its publication, it had turned out to be a voluminous body of data. Ohio Source Record^ includes everything of a genealogical nature that appeared in the"lJu7r^erTy7~~ omiting only news, notes and queries. Here is a sampling of the Table of Contents." "Local history, newspaper abstracts, tax lists, cemetery records, family histories, bible records, settlements of estates, marriage records, abstracts of wills, revol­ utionary pensioners, and a list of licensed tavern keepers of central Ohio! (There are more.) The 104-page index plus 58 pages of closely-printed tax lists for 1810 listed alphabetically by county list the names of some 45,000 persons. This is a terrific aid for Ohio research. EARLY FAMILIES OF HERKIMER COUNTY, NEW YORK, by William Barker, c.1986, 384 pg, indexed, contents. Hard-Bound. (W50T

A number of Palatine families were permitted to take up lands in the Mohawk Valley of New York in 1723. Those families settling within the bounds of the present county of Herkimer are the subject of this new work, Early Families of Herkimer County, New York. Initially called Burnetsfield, itTWeTTngland District, the early Herkimer County* area was variously referred to as Stone Ridge, The Flats, The Falls, and most commonly as German Flats. Between 1723 and 1755,'the original Burnetsfield settlers were joined by other Palatine families; This book dwells on the families established in the area prior to the Revolution and includes detailed genealogies for 87 surnames. In addition, there are several miscellaneous enclo­ sures of interest; for example, Smidt's log of 1710 immigration, and an alphabet­ ized 1790 census. The book has been compiled for quick, easy reference, and if any of these families are your's, you'll find a nice chunk of information at one sitting!

WAS EDGAR ATHELING YOUR ANCESTOR? (followup to previous articles entitled "Edgar Atheling", Part I appearing in the Summer 1985 Bulletin, Part II appearing in the Autumn 1985 Bulletin, and Part III appearing in the Winter 1985-86 Bulletin) by William Austin

The following biographical data for Edgar Atheling is here added as a followup to the previous three articles. It is included here for it seems likely that he may be the only participant in the migration of the English to the "New England" in Crimea and other Black Sea portages whose descendants can be traced down to the present*

Edgar's ancestors can be traced back previous to King Alfred the Great with certainty and to the first Saxon conquerors of England with somewhat less recorded substantiation. Regarding the parentage of his mother, many articles have been written and theories presented, none of which has proven completely convincing. His grandmother, wife of King Edmund Ironside, was a widow of a Danish thegn (def: thane, landholder and performer of military service for the king) in England and has been suggested as being of Welsh nobility, also without proof.

The data stems from an article by Andrew Moriarty, one of the great scholars of medieval genealogy. He brings it down to Henry III, King of England, who many students of family history can claim as ancestor, I also refer readers to the article "Mathilda, Wife of Guigues VIII, Count of Albon" by G. Andrew Moriarty, in New England Historical & Genealogical Record, 111:265 (Dec, 19.40).

THE WRONG "MATHILDA"? Charles Evans1 article about Robert Guiscard's geneal­ ogy indicates that Italian genealogists state that Count Guigues III of Albon (VIII of Viennois) married Mathilda of Sicily, I have not seen the sources for this state­ ment, but Mr. Moriarty's article on Mathilda, Edgar's daughter, states from sources that she was referred to as English and of royalty. The chronology shows that Edgar passed through this French alpine area early in 1098 en route to Byzantium and that the marriage may have been arranged by an exiled Archbishop of Canterbury who was also in that area then. Perhaps more light can be shed on this "problem" in the near future,

AGATHA'S GENEALOGY? Edgar's mother's family derivations have been examined with interesting non-agreement by a number of authorities* Among others, her father has been identified as St. Stephen, King of Hungary; Count Liudolf of Bruns­ wick (or Margrave of Westfriesland); a Bishop Bruno; and Ernest, a dispossed rebel­ lious Duke of Swabia who was killed at the age of 16 after a short final career of a German "Robin Hood." There are points for and against all of these and other possibilities, but proof for or against none. As Princes Andrew and Bela were refugees in Kiev for some years, it might be easier to explain Agatha's presence in Kiev by identifying her as sister of these two which could further explain why Edward, Edgar's father, was so richly rewarded following Andrew's successful revol­ ution* Or, perhaps she was daughter of Aba Samuel who succeeded King St. Stephen in 1038 for a few years until murdered by his successor, Peter.'

WAS EDGAR A FIGHTING 10 YEAR OLD? Some authorities believe Edgar was bornin 1056 or even later, possibly after the family arrived in England in 1057. Charles Kings ley whose novel Herward the Wake seems to follow closely an untranslated saga Page 154 SEATTLE GENEALOGICAL SOCIETY BULLETIN Spring 1986

EDGAR ATHELING (cont'd) about Hereward portrays Edgar in a scene that must be .1068 or 1069 as a squealing- for-his-mother 10 year old amid the violent confrontations of those days* but the chronicles show a mature antagonist operating in the next year; otherwise^ the novel succeeds on the whole, adding a bit of drama and characterization to a saga one would otherwise miss0 DID EDGAR HAVE A THIRD DAUGHTER? King Harold of England's line can be traced through the marriage of his daughter Gytha to Vladimir II Monomach, Grand Prince of Kiev, After Gytha died, Vladimir remarried to a woman unnamed in the chronic!es * c.1091-1100, and who died in 1107* Among the children by this woman was an agatha who married in 1106 and an Andrew born in 1102e As Andrew and Bela were nephews of Vladimir's grandfather and Andrew was married to a daughter of this same grand­ father (Yaroslav), this suggests to me that the possibility exists for a third daughter of Edgar here which additional information can perhaps confirm or deny.
