The Geneline The Geneline THE MONTHLY NEWSLETTER OF Amelia Island Genealogical Society September 2012 - ISSUE COMING UP! AIGS General Meeting - Tuesday -September 18 at 7:00 pm HELD:FERNANDINA BEACH POLICE DEPT. COMMUNITY ROOM TOPIC: Genetic Genealogy SPEAKER: Arnold Weeks This informative presentation explores the use of DNA testing to extend both PATERNAL and MATERNAL lineages. The basics of DNA will be briefly dis- cussed and then the speaker will pres- ent information on current DNA testing services, surname projects, and other genetic genealogy issues. Other topics covered will include The Genographic Project, public and pri- vate DNA databases, laws pertaining to genetic information, and the rewards and risks of DNA testing. About Our Speaker Our speaker, ARNOLD WEEKS, is a sixth generation Floridian and has been involved in Genealogy for over 40 years. His special areas of genealogical interest are genetic genealogy, family history and health, and Native American Genealogy. He has a B.A. in History from UWF and a Master of Science from Florida State. Mr Weeks has been the Director of Libraries in Clay County, Florida since 1987 and in 2007 became Director of Community Services in Clay County. He is active in Rotary International and is a member of the National Genealogical Society, the Florida Genealogical Society, and the Florida Historical Society 2012 AIGS MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT BOARD MEMBERS Michael A. Toomey Michael S. Toomey he number of President Smartphone applica- Royce “Gus” Reinwald Ttions available both for Vice-President the iphone and for Android Gloria Toomey phones has exploded, and broadened to many areas of Secretary everyday life, supplying help- Susan Anstead ful applications to aid shop- Treasurer ping, driving, music, maps, Charles Finnigan finding fuel… etc. Both Apple and Google claim to Membership have over 500,000 Chairperson Smartphone apps on iTunes Marie Santry and Google Play respectively. Past President So I decided to look at Bob Keane Smartphone genealogy “apps” Director to see if there had been much progress in this area. Burt Swearingen Ancestry.com’s And, as you would guess, Director App for iPhone, iPad there has been significant Kay Watt called Ancestry progress, perhaps not all that Director you would want, but, still progress. COMMITTEE CHAIRS & EDITORS FAMILIES. Legacy Family Tree software has a mobile application for either Michael Toomey iphone/ipad and Android phones and tablets called Families. Legacy is a AIGS Website very good family tree software, and the new applications will synchronize Bob Keane directly with the mobile devices. And, you can add data to the mobile Program device on a trip for instance and synch with your home application when you return.The software is full featured, and supports individual, pedigree, Charles Finnigan and descendent views; timelines, pictures, geo-location etc. Enough fea- Membership tures that you could just take the mobile device on that research trip! The Lori Miranda Android reviews were better than the iphone single review, and it is expen- Publicity sive at $15.00 per mobile unit. Kay Watt Ancestry. Ancestry.com has a mobile application called Ancestry Librarian (naturally) for either Android or iphone that will connect directly to your Kathy Nemaric family files on ancestry.com’s website. So, you can see and change any- Research Coordinator thing you have online, but you cannot synch directly to your personal Frances Bartelt Family Tree Maker files directly, only to family files you have online at the Editor Geneline ancestry web site, so you have to be an ancestry subscriber to use it. If you are keeping your files online, this might be a great application for you as Jean Mann the software is free.The user reviews are good, and it seems easy to use (I Editor of Nassau did not try it). Naturally, if you drop your ancestry.com subscription you County Genealogist lose access to the files. (Continued on pg. 3) pg 2 AIGS September 2012 Reunion app for iphone. Reunion is an Apple only application, and this new mobile app will con- nect directly to your personal Reunion desktop or laptop file. Reunion is a highly rated genealogy application for Mac users, and the mobile application continues this.The application is expensive at $15.00 per mobile unit. Mobile Family Tree Pro for iphone/Ipad.This is a $15.00 mobile application only, with no connec- tion to any other genealogy program you might have. It had mixed reviews,but if you are completely mobile (and few ofus are) it might fit your needs. There are several other apps which use a proprietary PC or Mac application to convert your data and then allow you to sync to a separate mobile app. You have to buy the PC applications and run it sepa- rately, and you generally cannot synch backwards to update your files. My Heritage and Mobile Family Tree are in this category. I would much prefer a direct applications synch, so I don’t recom- mend these. GedStar, Family Bee, and GedView and Gendroid for Android users are GEDCOM readers only. So if you use them, you have to convert your files to a GEDCOM, load it onto your mobile, and reverse the process back to a new file on your home computer. This seems like a lot of effort, but they do work if you just want to see the data for research and not change it on a mobile unit.These are less expensive $3.00 to $10.00. Other Tools. Evernote.There are now many note taking tools which you can use to store your research notes. The best known in Evernote. You can keep synchronized notes on any device you own, by category, and you can keep planning notes including travel arrangements for future trips. It also has a web clipper to keep websites you find in your search. Evernote is a great tool, but it does connect to all of the services on your phone (GPS, addresses etc). I use a simple note taking application which is less intru- sive named SE Notepad. You can keep notes by easily created categories. It is free and uncomplicat- ed and I like it. Find a Grave and Billion Graves: Find a Grave has an excellent mobile android application, which I use.You can search the entire Find A Grave database quickly, and it located all of the 20 or so graves I have online. Billion Graves has a Smartphone camera application for both iphone and Android which you can use to send grave information directly to them without a desktop application.This is designed to send data only and not view it, so it is a collection device. Billion Grave data is available on FamilySearch.org. Indexing. FamilySearch has a new application for both Iphone/ipad and Android phone/tablet that will let you index FamilySearch information on your mobile device. This was developed for the 1940 census, and it was very successful. Individuals found they could work on indexing files while they had a few min- utes, such as waiting for the doctor, or riding the bus. This is a free application. So, some progress has been made in mobile applications. I hope there are a few you are interested in trying! Michael A. Toomey AIGS President. September 2012 AIGS pg 3 When Joseph Vincent became Michael, America Benefited by Gus Reinwald on the internet because it was out of print, but I did locate one in the Belmont Abby College Library. I went to the Fernandina Library and was able to get a copy of the book through their inter- library loan service. Right in the beginning of the book was this sentence;“Born 'Joseph Vincent McInerney' in Lockhaven, Pennsylvania, he was the son of Michael and Mary Ann (O'Gorman) McInerney, both Irish-immigrants from County Clare.” It also said that Joseph Vincent was given the name Michael when he entered the monastery at Belmont Abbey. I was searching for Michael when I should have been looking for Joseph Father Michael McInerney Vincent! With this new information, everything that I had found prior began to fall into place; received an email awhile back from an Irish census records starting from 1870 followed this gentleman inquiring about the article that I McInerney family through various towns in Iwrote for the AIGS newsletter. This article pub- Pennsylvania including Lock Haven, and on into lished in the March 2011 issue of The Geneline, North Carolina where Joseph Vincent became talked about my wife’s ancestor, Michael Michael and lived at the Abbey.

  • Computers Vs. Humans: Comparing Outputs of Genealogy Programs
    Computers vs. Humans: Comparing Output of Genealogy Programs Computers vs. Humans: Comparing Output of Genealogy Programs © 2009, Debbie Parker Wayne First publication rights granted to Digital Genealogist, July 2009. All other rights reserved. Computers are very good at handling repetitive, logical tasks—not so good at creativity. Any fan of Star Trek: The Next Generation will remember the trouble Commander Data had with tasks that required feelings or creativity. Even the imaginative minds that created Star Trek: TNG could not imagine computers had advanced so much by the 24th century that an android could rival the creativity of the human mind. There has been an ongoing discussion in the genealogical world about whether genealogy programs can “create” output or reports that meet the creative standards we strive for today—more than a list of begats—an interesting family history with analysis of kinship communities and social context that makes the reader care about the family and want to know more. Some genealogists expect a well-written narrative to be magically spit out by a genealogy program’s report generator. Genealogy databases allow a genealogical summary report to be generated using canned sentences that Sergeant Joe Friday would love—just the facts. The more advanced programs allow customization of the output sentences and source citations to make the narrative more exciting and interesting. Some genealogists think there is no reason for a genealogy program to offer these options. They want only a bare-bones family summary with birth, marriage, and death information. This summary is copied into a word processor where the sentences that flow from the creative juices are then added.

  • Using Personal Ancestral File (PAF) 5.2 by Terry Mason - 3 Dec
    Using Personal Ancestral File (PAF) 5.2 by Terry Mason - 3 Dec. 2005 On July 23rd, 2002 the PAF development team in Salt Lake City announced that PAF 5.2 was now ready for download from the Web site at www.familysearch.org. The list of enhancements is: • The program is more compatible with newer versions of the Windows operating systems, particularly Windows XP, • The file of LDS temples and their starting dates has been updated to include new temples, • Additional "HELP" files have been added, • The "Global Search and Replace" function now works for names, temple codes, and notes. • Attributes for the predefined custom events can now be edited, • The "Match/Merge" function has been enhanced, • Support for the Input Method Editors for non-roman languages has been improved, and • For LDS Church members, the TempleReady Update Files (OUP files) can now be used to update your PAF database with completed ordinance dates. The most significant of all of these enhancements is the option to update or submit records using a GEDCOM created by PAF through TempleReady for Windows. When the Ordinance Index contains data that is used to modify the personal records, a special file with the .OUP file extension is created. This file can be used to update a PAF database with the dates and temples. This is particularly useful for individuals who are unable to bring a backup of their complete database to a family history center. 1. How do you load PAF onto a home computer? PAF 5 is available using a browser with an Internet connection.

  • 4150 Cousins: What 7 DNA Ancestry Tests Can Tell You About Your Kin by Danielle Nadeau a Thesis Presented to the University Of
    4150 Cousins: What 7 DNA Ancestry Tests Can Tell You About Your Kin by Danielle Nadeau A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Master of Arts in Public Issues Anthropology Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2015 © Danielle Nadeau 2015 Author’s Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this research paper. I authorize the University of Waterloo to lend this research paper to other institutions or individuals for the purpose of scholarly research. Danielle Nadeau December 22, 2015 ii Abstract This thesis presents the results of seven commercialized DNA ancestry tests that are all available to the public, for under $400 Canadian dollars each. This research is conducted to explore the use of commercialized DNA ancestry tests. The results from each test are compared in order to determine what they are able to tell a customer. The tests used are not the only tests available, but are chosen because of their popularity, price, and what they claim to be able to report to their customer. I find the databases that the tests include online to ‘find relatives’, who are other customers having the same Haplogroup or another matching genetic identifier, to be the most troublesome aspect of the results. Specifically, it is important for the public to clearly understand that these tests are not as conclusive as they are advertised to be, so that they are not misled in thinking that the tests have the potential to show things with certainty that they cannot. iii Acknowledgments First, I would like to thank my supervisor, Dr.
