SPRING CLEANING by Sh i r1 lOy Terry (829-7787)

Our QIm group is s-pcmsoring an Everton ~od~hop on iJedne~da J3 t1a)l1987 to be held at the Evangel ical FIeuroe Church at t900 I)alley Trails in Pleasanton The decision to hold this workshop was made at a general meeting and well need the help and support of our entire membership to make it successful

Please plan to attend if you are able to make a day event Bring everyone you know who ever showed any interest i~ genealogy as it will be a marvelous way to get started The S20 registration fee includes a one-year subscription to the Genealogical Helper which means six big issues coming direct to )lOU at home Youll love it

For further information see the colored fJ ier i1cluded in this issue and please pre-register There may be a bonus for early registration If IOU cant come pass the fl ier along to someone who can Make copies ask for

Mil i tary records are very he 1pfu 1 to the family researcher Besides giuing proof of mil itary service a pension record giues a personal d~scripti o n of him and can furnish clues leading to other sources Civil War pension r ec ords are especially good sources of information Plac e and dat e of entry into the s ervice can hel p you find him in the 1850 and 1860 censuses probably still with his par ents The place of entry may not be his actual place of residence but youll probably find him fairly close If not consider why he chose to join at that place May be youll find relatives in his company Places of residence after discharge are ususal1 y included

A questionnaire completed by the Civ i l War veteran usuallY included full names and birthdates of his children (at least those under 18 years of age) information about his marriage(s) and any divorc e information Some even have photos tats of Bible records to prove the veterans identity

A few pension records also contain photostatic copies of the marriage 1 icense especially if the ~ltJidow is claiming the pension So you may even get the date and place of marriage and t he names of their parents

In addition to sending for direct 1 i ne ancestors IJJho served in the Civil War dont forget his brothe r s and those of h i s wife In my case it was a brothers file that held a Bible record And an unmarried brothers pension may have been claimed by his mother your direct ancestor Some files euen have letters either furnished as proof of SOffie claim or found in the personal possession of the soldier whe n killed

SOLVE IT WITH SOUNDEX by Shirley Siems Terry

With twenty years experience in genealogy I am someltJhat hesitant to admit that I have rcfally just discovered the wonders of Soundex You see when I began my census searching twenty years ago there didn~t seem to be much need to go through the 1880 Soundex as I knew all four sets of my grea t-grandparen ts were in the same county in the 1880 census and I really wanted to search all of Gage County NE to pick up all the fam1 jar surnames I started ~Yi th the 1880 census and worked back There was no general 1890 census to search because of its loss and the 1900 and 1910 censuses hadnt yet been released

This February decided to search the 1900 and 1910 censuses for clues on my great-grandfather Claus SIEMS I had exhausted the usual sources

On my first trip to the Archives in San Bruno I still had no intention of using the Soundex I expected to find Claus SIEMS either still 1 iving on his farm in Clatonia Twp or in the town of Beatrice at the street address on his 1911 death certificate

The volunteer at the Archives insisted I use the Soundex to locate him in the 1900 census 1 spen t an hour or so figuring out all my Soundex codes for my various surnames and try i ng to find Claus SI EMS under S520 for Nebraska I was amazed at the variety of surnames that end~ with the same code and final1~ noticed that although the last names seemed to have nothing much in common bu t the code the first names were 10 alphabetical or depound (Also several codes are sometimes lumped together) I went through the entire film for his code and cop i ed down the information from index car-ds on all SIEMSSIMSSIMESSEIMS I found some possible brothers for Claus but 1

did NOT find Claus BECAUSE his youngest son was 14 in 1900 and ~ families with children under 10 were Soundexed However I ~Jas gl ad the volunteer had made me search the Soundex as it provided several families of the same surname in other NE counties to follow up on

It also gave me some additional information on a Sophie SIEMS b 1833 dJ923 who had found 1 isted in Cemeteries in Lancaster County Nebraska a book in our own LAGS Library She is in Kramer Cemetery which is in the sw corner township of Lancaster County neighboring my Gage County and very close to my German ancestors In fact one set of my grgrgrandparents is buried in the same ceme tery Odd1 y my Grandmother and a first cousin both had the same maiden name of Sophia DAMKROGER and when the marl i ed brothers they were both Sophia SIEMS so I was very curious about this third lady of the same name born 50 years earl ieI This older one was just the right age to be a sister or sister-in-law to my Claus The 1900 Soundex said she was born April 1833 in Germany and 1 ived in the 01 ive 8ranch Precinct of Lancaster Co as the mother-in-law of Edward H WElLAGE with whom she 1 ived I went back to our LAGS Library where I found members of the WElLAGE family buried in the same cemetery including Edward (1866-1951) and Johanne (1869-1960) Johannes maiden name must have been SIEMS and her death certificate might be helpful to me

But here comes my SOUNDEX BONANZA Claus SIEMS first wife Carol ine He 1ena t~ELTZEINWI SeTEN my great grandmother died in 1890 1eav i ng m grandfather l4illiam as the youngest son age three or four We knew Claus second wife was Arne] iaEmi 1 ie (Penn) REDt1ER I was very surpr i sed not to find her with Claus and the

-229shy

ch i 1dren in 1900 The 1910 census tells me that Claus and Amel ia had been married only six years so 1 looKed her up on the 1900 Soundex where I was surprised to find her as a housekeeper in Pawnee Coun ty southeast of Gage County Since I had searched the Gage County marriage records myself for his sons and hadnt found one for Claus I came home from the Archives and sent off a letter to Pawnee County to asK if Claus and Arne ia were married there By return mail came a c oP y of their marriage 1 icense and certificate IlJith the modest bill of $150 Claus gave his parents as John SIEMS and Mary GETNER

Remember somewhere out there you r elusive record is just waiting for you to figure out its location Keep sleuthing

Remember too that somet imes the information given for such records is wrong The names of Mrs Emel ie REDMER s parents were not completed on the first writing In a I ighter ink th ey are shown as Carl REDMER and Dorothea Z~~KER We have several sources that show REDMER as he r marri ed name including the marriage 1 icense and certificate th emselves where we find MMrs written in by hand

My own mother-in-Jaws death certificate has he r father g iven incorrectly Her bereaved husband gave her mothers fathers name Frances FINN instead of Harvey FISHER although he gave her mother Grace C FINN correctly He knew his in-laws personally but was probably tired and confused at the time and misunderstood the question

Guide to the Soundex System The Soundex filing system alphabetic for the first letter of

surname and numeric thereunder as indicated by divider cards keeps together names of the same and similar sounds but of variant spellings

To search for a par~icular name you must first work out the code number for the surname of the individual No number is asigned to the first Jetter of the surname If the name is Kuhne for example the index card will be in the K segment cil the index The code number for Kuhne worked out according to the system below is 500

Soundex Coding Guide Code Key Letters and Equivalents

1 b p f V

2 cskgjqxz 3 d t 4 1 5 mn 6 r

The letters a e i 0 u y w and h are not coded The first letter of a surname is not codd Every Soundex number must be a3-digit number A

name yielding no code numbers as Lee would thus be L 000 one yielding only on code number would have two zeros added as Kuhne coded as K 500 and one yielding two code numbers would have one zero added as Ebell coded as E 140 Not more than three digits are used so Ebelson would be coded as E 142 not E 1425

When two key leters ~uivalents appear together or one key letter immediately follows or precedes an equivalent the two are coded as one letter by a single number as follows Kelly coded 88 K400

Buerpoundjs coded as B620 ~oyd coded as L300 and Ssbaefer coded as SlGO

If several surnames have the same code the cards for them are arranged alphabetically by given name There are divider cards showing most code numbers but not aiL For instance one divider may be numbered 350 and the next one 400 Between the two divider cards there may be names coded 353 350 360 364 365 and 355 but instead of being in numerical order they are inter-filed alphabetically by given name

Such prefixes to su r names as van Von Di de Ie Di D del a or du are sometimes disregarded in alphabetizing and in coding

SURNAME ADDENDUM

The Surname Addendum is now available for $1 per coPy This booklet was needed to up-date the one our society publ ished several years ago The Addendum contains the surnames of newer members with local ities and t ime periods as well as newly found ancestors of those members included in the original A coPy of the or i g j na 1 is on f i 1 e in our 1 i brary

Reviewed by George Anderson

Three new books are reviewed in this issue of The _ Roots Tracer All are data compilations worth searching by LAGS members All are now on the shelf at our library in the Carnegie Building in Livermore

Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents Volume I August 1986 bullbull Volume II October 1986 Compiled and published by Yates Publishing Company POBox 237 Ozark MO 65721 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 193 pages (VoL I) 245 pages (Vol II) $800 per volume

If you pick up each new issue of The Genealogical Helper and full of hope turn to the index to see if someone else is finally publishing something about your Zutz family you will often find -- Eureka -shyThere it is -- Zutz T021 Turning quickly to page 21 you see a page full of surnames including Zutz in microscopic print Elation tul1S to deflation Now you remember biting on that one every two months

This manic-depressive event is brought to you by the Yates Publishing Company of Ozark Missouri who bought page 21 and surrounding pages for advertising its Family Group Sheet Exchange Yates also publishes Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents the subject of this review

The family group sheet exchange conducted by Yates requires you to send in a family group sheet and a check for $8 in return for which you receive free any and all (up to 40) family group sheets already on file for that surname Yates will also put your pedigree chart into its files without charge and will publicize the names on it

Yates has distilled these two volumes of Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents from its data banks of group sheets and pedigree charts More volumes are apparently on the way We have the first two volumes in our LAGS library In my opinion we also ought to add any future sequels

-241shy

There is no difference in kind between the two books -- evidently the volumes are being released as data entry and reduction proceeds Perhaps each volume contains as much information as the Yates computer can handle at once Here are some statistics Volume I has 8037 marriage records of length 110 bytes each containing full name of bride and groom birth year and place for each marriage year and place and a number keyed to the source document The entire file is printed twice once alphabetically by groom and again alphabetically by bride Source documents (747 in Volume I) are listed twice once by key numer and once alphabetically by author Volume II has somewhat more (10935) marriage records but fewer (513) cited documents

At the end of Volume II is the list of surnames used by Yates in the GH ads again printed in 6-point type Almost 13000 different surnames appear in this list Only one surname (Welhoff) from my ancestry was missing from the 13000 However not one of my ancestors that I know about appears in the marriage lists

There is little chance to assess the accuracy of the data as printed and even less chance to detect errors in the data submitted to Yates I spotted only one obvious data entry error in Volume I but 7 in Volume II A curious pattem in Volume II makes me suspicious of error up to the letter E in the

alphabetical listing by grooms there are roughly the same number of entries derived from group sheets as from pedigree charts while after that almost every one is from pedigrees A computer-wise publisher would insist on an explanation for such non-random behavior

Marriages ofSome American Residents and Guide to Documents is a set of books that all of our members should consult -- it provides a quick and easy index to masses of data

In the spirit of experimental research I decided to put the Yates Family Group Sheet Exchange to the test I have submitted group sheets for my greatshygrandfathers Samuel Black and John Flake and have paid my $16 I will let readers of The Roots Tracer know in a future issue how well the system works

Ancestors We Have Found 1986 Harold Dwain Williams Editor Dale SmathersIndexer Published by the North San Diego County Genealogical Society POBox 581 Carlsbad CA 92008 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 353+viii pages indexed no price given

This book is like our own LAGS Surname Index in purpose but is larger and has some interesting differences in the way it is organized Our book (with supplement) contains 1620 different surnames on 54 pages Ancestors We Have Found contains 3870 different surnames on 361 pages The discrepancy in surnamespage is accounted for by the way the San Diego book is organized it is largely given over to ancestor charts of the sort we have begun printing in The Roots Tracer The full name of each known ancestor of each member of the society is listed with date and place of birth marriage and death if known In contrast our book lists only surnames For each locality associated with that surname we list only one date or range of dates The result is that the San Diego book contains a great deal of information -- including kinship information -- that ours does not It may be that when we have printed enough of our members charts in The Roots Tracer we will want to collect them into a book like Ancestors We Have Found

To test the book from San Diego I searched for a number of names in my family I quickly found that if we ever do publish a book like this wewill need a better index The problem is that many of the ancestor charts are over 10 pages long with 50 namespage but the index refers you only to the members name so you end up scanning through hundreds of names to find the one the index lists The book looks like it has been computerized so it would have been a simple matter to list both the members name and the ancestors number in the index The penalty would have been increasing the size of the index from 30 to perhaps 45 pages

My search finally did produce a hit 1 now have a name in Carlsbad California to correspond with about the Mullikins of Maryland

Are genealogists addicted to word play You might think so to read the titles of genealogy magazines advertised in the most recent issue of The Genealogical Helper I was so intrigued by a few titles that caught my eye that I compUlsively pored over the whole issue writing down example after outrageous example There were at least 33 Most were simply alliterative The Bennington Bunch The Thornton Throng Phillips Family Finder A few were punning Trees Company The Knight Letter One 1 could hardly believe was a rhyme A Crump on Every Stump But my favorite was The ODell Diggins -- I guess if your name is ODell and you get teased often enough about Digger ODell rhe comic undertaker you might as well join in the ftm and name your newsletter after him A fev that I didnt see (I think Ill copyright them) were Rodeau Rooter The Budd Light Bumpp Kin and Kiepcrs Finders

Mil i tary records are very he 1pfu 1 to the family researcher Besides giuing proof of mil itary service a pension record giues a personal d~scripti o n of him and can furnish clues leading to other sources Civil War pension r ec ords are especially good sources of information Plac e and dat e of entry into the s ervice can hel p you find him in the 1850 and 1860 censuses probably still with his par ents The place of entry may not be his actual place of residence but youll probably find him fairly close If not consider why he chose to join at that place May be youll find relatives in his company Places of residence after discharge are ususal1 y included

A questionnaire completed by the Civ i l War veteran usuallY included full names and birthdates of his children (at least those under 18 years of age) information about his marriage(s) and any divorc e information Some even have photos tats of Bible records to prove the veterans identity

A few pension records also contain photostatic copies of the marriage 1 icense especially if the ~ltJidow is claiming the pension So you may even get the date and place of marriage and t he names of their parents

In addition to sending for direct 1 i ne ancestors IJJho served in the Civil War dont forget his brothe r s and those of h i s wife In my case it was a brothers file that held a Bible record And an unmarried brothers pension may have been claimed by his mother your direct ancestor Some files euen have letters either furnished as proof of SOffie claim or found in the personal possession of the soldier whe n killed

SOLVE IT WITH SOUNDEX by Shirley Siems Terry

With twenty years experience in genealogy I am someltJhat hesitant to admit that I have rcfally just discovered the wonders of Soundex You see when I began my census searching twenty years ago there didn~t seem to be much need to go through the 1880 Soundex as I knew all four sets of my grea t-grandparen ts were in the same county in the 1880 census and I really wanted to search all of Gage County NE to pick up all the fam1 jar surnames I started ~Yi th the 1880 census and worked back There was no general 1890 census to search because of its loss and the 1900 and 1910 censuses hadnt yet been released

This February decided to search the 1900 and 1910 censuses for clues on my great-grandfather Claus SIEMS I had exhausted the usual sources

On my first trip to the Archives in San Bruno I still had no intention of using the Soundex I expected to find Claus SIEMS either still 1 iving on his farm in Clatonia Twp or in the town of Beatrice at the street address on his 1911 death certificate

The volunteer at the Archives insisted I use the Soundex to locate him in the 1900 census 1 spen t an hour or so figuring out all my Soundex codes for my various surnames and try i ng to find Claus SI EMS under S520 for Nebraska I was amazed at the variety of surnames that end~ with the same code and final1~ noticed that although the last names seemed to have nothing much in common bu t the code the first names were 10 alphabetical or depound (Also several codes are sometimes lumped together) I went through the entire film for his code and cop i ed down the information from index car-ds on all SIEMSSIMSSIMESSEIMS I found some possible brothers for Claus but 1

did NOT find Claus BECAUSE his youngest son was 14 in 1900 and ~ families with children under 10 were Soundexed However I ~Jas gl ad the volunteer had made me search the Soundex as it provided several families of the same surname in other NE counties to follow up on

It also gave me some additional information on a Sophie SIEMS b 1833 dJ923 who had found 1 isted in Cemeteries in Lancaster County Nebraska a book in our own LAGS Library She is in Kramer Cemetery which is in the sw corner township of Lancaster County neighboring my Gage County and very close to my German ancestors In fact one set of my grgrgrandparents is buried in the same ceme tery Odd1 y my Grandmother and a first cousin both had the same maiden name of Sophia DAMKROGER and when the marl i ed brothers they were both Sophia SIEMS so I was very curious about this third lady of the same name born 50 years earl ieI This older one was just the right age to be a sister or sister-in-law to my Claus The 1900 Soundex said she was born April 1833 in Germany and 1 ived in the 01 ive 8ranch Precinct of Lancaster Co as the mother-in-law of Edward H WElLAGE with whom she 1 ived I went back to our LAGS Library where I found members of the WElLAGE family buried in the same cemetery including Edward (1866-1951) and Johanne (1869-1960) Johannes maiden name must have been SIEMS and her death certificate might be helpful to me

But here comes my SOUNDEX BONANZA Claus SIEMS first wife Carol ine He 1ena t~ELTZEINWI SeTEN my great grandmother died in 1890 1eav i ng m grandfather l4illiam as the youngest son age three or four We knew Claus second wife was Arne] iaEmi 1 ie (Penn) REDt1ER I was very surpr i sed not to find her with Claus and the

-229shy

ch i 1dren in 1900 The 1910 census tells me that Claus and Amel ia had been married only six years so 1 looKed her up on the 1900 Soundex where I was surprised to find her as a housekeeper in Pawnee Coun ty southeast of Gage County Since I had searched the Gage County marriage records myself for his sons and hadnt found one for Claus I came home from the Archives and sent off a letter to Pawnee County to asK if Claus and Arne ia were married there By return mail came a c oP y of their marriage 1 icense and certificate IlJith the modest bill of $150 Claus gave his parents as John SIEMS and Mary GETNER

Remember somewhere out there you r elusive record is just waiting for you to figure out its location Keep sleuthing

Remember too that somet imes the information given for such records is wrong The names of Mrs Emel ie REDMER s parents were not completed on the first writing In a I ighter ink th ey are shown as Carl REDMER and Dorothea Z~~KER We have several sources that show REDMER as he r marri ed name including the marriage 1 icense and certificate th emselves where we find MMrs written in by hand

My own mother-in-Jaws death certificate has he r father g iven incorrectly Her bereaved husband gave her mothers fathers name Frances FINN instead of Harvey FISHER although he gave her mother Grace C FINN correctly He knew his in-laws personally but was probably tired and confused at the time and misunderstood the question

Guide to the Soundex System The Soundex filing system alphabetic for the first letter of

surname and numeric thereunder as indicated by divider cards keeps together names of the same and similar sounds but of variant spellings

To search for a par~icular name you must first work out the code number for the surname of the individual No number is asigned to the first Jetter of the surname If the name is Kuhne for example the index card will be in the K segment cil the index The code number for Kuhne worked out according to the system below is 500

Soundex Coding Guide Code Key Letters and Equivalents

1 b p f V

2 cskgjqxz 3 d t 4 1 5 mn 6 r

The letters a e i 0 u y w and h are not coded The first letter of a surname is not codd Every Soundex number must be a3-digit number A

name yielding no code numbers as Lee would thus be L 000 one yielding only on code number would have two zeros added as Kuhne coded as K 500 and one yielding two code numbers would have one zero added as Ebell coded as E 140 Not more than three digits are used so Ebelson would be coded as E 142 not E 1425

When two key leters ~uivalents appear together or one key letter immediately follows or precedes an equivalent the two are coded as one letter by a single number as follows Kelly coded 88 K400

Buerpoundjs coded as B620 ~oyd coded as L300 and Ssbaefer coded as SlGO

If several surnames have the same code the cards for them are arranged alphabetically by given name There are divider cards showing most code numbers but not aiL For instance one divider may be numbered 350 and the next one 400 Between the two divider cards there may be names coded 353 350 360 364 365 and 355 but instead of being in numerical order they are inter-filed alphabetically by given name

Such prefixes to su r names as van Von Di de Ie Di D del a or du are sometimes disregarded in alphabetizing and in coding

SURNAME ADDENDUM

The Surname Addendum is now available for $1 per coPy This booklet was needed to up-date the one our society publ ished several years ago The Addendum contains the surnames of newer members with local ities and t ime periods as well as newly found ancestors of those members included in the original A coPy of the or i g j na 1 is on f i 1 e in our 1 i brary

Reviewed by George Anderson

Three new books are reviewed in this issue of The _ Roots Tracer All are data compilations worth searching by LAGS members All are now on the shelf at our library in the Carnegie Building in Livermore

Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents Volume I August 1986 bullbull Volume II October 1986 Compiled and published by Yates Publishing Company POBox 237 Ozark MO 65721 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 193 pages (VoL I) 245 pages (Vol II) $800 per volume

If you pick up each new issue of The Genealogical Helper and full of hope turn to the index to see if someone else is finally publishing something about your Zutz family you will often find -- Eureka -shyThere it is -- Zutz T021 Turning quickly to page 21 you see a page full of surnames including Zutz in microscopic print Elation tul1S to deflation Now you remember biting on that one every two months

This manic-depressive event is brought to you by the Yates Publishing Company of Ozark Missouri who bought page 21 and surrounding pages for advertising its Family Group Sheet Exchange Yates also publishes Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents the subject of this review

The family group sheet exchange conducted by Yates requires you to send in a family group sheet and a check for $8 in return for which you receive free any and all (up to 40) family group sheets already on file for that surname Yates will also put your pedigree chart into its files without charge and will publicize the names on it

Yates has distilled these two volumes of Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents from its data banks of group sheets and pedigree charts More volumes are apparently on the way We have the first two volumes in our LAGS library In my opinion we also ought to add any future sequels

-241shy

There is no difference in kind between the two books -- evidently the volumes are being released as data entry and reduction proceeds Perhaps each volume contains as much information as the Yates computer can handle at once Here are some statistics Volume I has 8037 marriage records of length 110 bytes each containing full name of bride and groom birth year and place for each marriage year and place and a number keyed to the source document The entire file is printed twice once alphabetically by groom and again alphabetically by bride Source documents (747 in Volume I) are listed twice once by key numer and once alphabetically by author Volume II has somewhat more (10935) marriage records but fewer (513) cited documents

At the end of Volume II is the list of surnames used by Yates in the GH ads again printed in 6-point type Almost 13000 different surnames appear in this list Only one surname (Welhoff) from my ancestry was missing from the 13000 However not one of my ancestors that I know about appears in the marriage lists

There is little chance to assess the accuracy of the data as printed and even less chance to detect errors in the data submitted to Yates I spotted only one obvious data entry error in Volume I but 7 in Volume II A curious pattem in Volume II makes me suspicious of error up to the letter E in the

alphabetical listing by grooms there are roughly the same number of entries derived from group sheets as from pedigree charts while after that almost every one is from pedigrees A computer-wise publisher would insist on an explanation for such non-random behavior

Marriages ofSome American Residents and Guide to Documents is a set of books that all of our members should consult -- it provides a quick and easy index to masses of data

In the spirit of experimental research I decided to put the Yates Family Group Sheet Exchange to the test I have submitted group sheets for my greatshygrandfathers Samuel Black and John Flake and have paid my $16 I will let readers of The Roots Tracer know in a future issue how well the system works

Ancestors We Have Found 1986 Harold Dwain Williams Editor Dale SmathersIndexer Published by the North San Diego County Genealogical Society POBox 581 Carlsbad CA 92008 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 353+viii pages indexed no price given

This book is like our own LAGS Surname Index in purpose but is larger and has some interesting differences in the way it is organized Our book (with supplement) contains 1620 different surnames on 54 pages Ancestors We Have Found contains 3870 different surnames on 361 pages The discrepancy in surnamespage is accounted for by the way the San Diego book is organized it is largely given over to ancestor charts of the sort we have begun printing in The Roots Tracer The full name of each known ancestor of each member of the society is listed with date and place of birth marriage and death if known In contrast our book lists only surnames For each locality associated with that surname we list only one date or range of dates The result is that the San Diego book contains a great deal of information -- including kinship information -- that ours does not It may be that when we have printed enough of our members charts in The Roots Tracer we will want to collect them into a book like Ancestors We Have Found

To test the book from San Diego I searched for a number of names in my family I quickly found that if we ever do publish a book like this wewill need a better index The problem is that many of the ancestor charts are over 10 pages long with 50 namespage but the index refers you only to the members name so you end up scanning through hundreds of names to find the one the index lists The book looks like it has been computerized so it would have been a simple matter to list both the members name and the ancestors number in the index The penalty would have been increasing the size of the index from 30 to perhaps 45 pages

My search finally did produce a hit 1 now have a name in Carlsbad California to correspond with about the Mullikins of Maryland

Are genealogists addicted to word play You might think so to read the titles of genealogy magazines advertised in the most recent issue of The Genealogical Helper I was so intrigued by a few titles that caught my eye that I compUlsively pored over the whole issue writing down example after outrageous example There were at least 33 Most were simply alliterative The Bennington Bunch The Thornton Throng Phillips Family Finder A few were punning Trees Company The Knight Letter One 1 could hardly believe was a rhyme A Crump on Every Stump But my favorite was The ODell Diggins -- I guess if your name is ODell and you get teased often enough about Digger ODell rhe comic undertaker you might as well join in the ftm and name your newsletter after him A fev that I didnt see (I think Ill copyright them) were Rodeau Rooter The Budd Light Bumpp Kin and Kiepcrs Finders

Mil i tary records are very he 1pfu 1 to the family researcher Besides giuing proof of mil itary service a pension record giues a personal d~scripti o n of him and can furnish clues leading to other sources Civil War pension r ec ords are especially good sources of information Plac e and dat e of entry into the s ervice can hel p you find him in the 1850 and 1860 censuses probably still with his par ents The place of entry may not be his actual place of residence but youll probably find him fairly close If not consider why he chose to join at that place May be youll find relatives in his company Places of residence after discharge are ususal1 y included

A questionnaire completed by the Civ i l War veteran usuallY included full names and birthdates of his children (at least those under 18 years of age) information about his marriage(s) and any divorc e information Some even have photos tats of Bible records to prove the veterans identity

A few pension records also contain photostatic copies of the marriage 1 icense especially if the ~ltJidow is claiming the pension So you may even get the date and place of marriage and t he names of their parents

In addition to sending for direct 1 i ne ancestors IJJho served in the Civil War dont forget his brothe r s and those of h i s wife In my case it was a brothers file that held a Bible record And an unmarried brothers pension may have been claimed by his mother your direct ancestor Some files euen have letters either furnished as proof of SOffie claim or found in the personal possession of the soldier whe n killed

SOLVE IT WITH SOUNDEX by Shirley Siems Terry

With twenty years experience in genealogy I am someltJhat hesitant to admit that I have rcfally just discovered the wonders of Soundex You see when I began my census searching twenty years ago there didn~t seem to be much need to go through the 1880 Soundex as I knew all four sets of my grea t-grandparen ts were in the same county in the 1880 census and I really wanted to search all of Gage County NE to pick up all the fam1 jar surnames I started ~Yi th the 1880 census and worked back There was no general 1890 census to search because of its loss and the 1900 and 1910 censuses hadnt yet been released

This February decided to search the 1900 and 1910 censuses for clues on my great-grandfather Claus SIEMS I had exhausted the usual sources

On my first trip to the Archives in San Bruno I still had no intention of using the Soundex I expected to find Claus SIEMS either still 1 iving on his farm in Clatonia Twp or in the town of Beatrice at the street address on his 1911 death certificate

The volunteer at the Archives insisted I use the Soundex to locate him in the 1900 census 1 spen t an hour or so figuring out all my Soundex codes for my various surnames and try i ng to find Claus SI EMS under S520 for Nebraska I was amazed at the variety of surnames that end~ with the same code and final1~ noticed that although the last names seemed to have nothing much in common bu t the code the first names were 10 alphabetical or depound (Also several codes are sometimes lumped together) I went through the entire film for his code and cop i ed down the information from index car-ds on all SIEMSSIMSSIMESSEIMS I found some possible brothers for Claus but 1

did NOT find Claus BECAUSE his youngest son was 14 in 1900 and ~ families with children under 10 were Soundexed However I ~Jas gl ad the volunteer had made me search the Soundex as it provided several families of the same surname in other NE counties to follow up on

It also gave me some additional information on a Sophie SIEMS b 1833 dJ923 who had found 1 isted in Cemeteries in Lancaster County Nebraska a book in our own LAGS Library She is in Kramer Cemetery which is in the sw corner township of Lancaster County neighboring my Gage County and very close to my German ancestors In fact one set of my grgrgrandparents is buried in the same ceme tery Odd1 y my Grandmother and a first cousin both had the same maiden name of Sophia DAMKROGER and when the marl i ed brothers they were both Sophia SIEMS so I was very curious about this third lady of the same name born 50 years earl ieI This older one was just the right age to be a sister or sister-in-law to my Claus The 1900 Soundex said she was born April 1833 in Germany and 1 ived in the 01 ive 8ranch Precinct of Lancaster Co as the mother-in-law of Edward H WElLAGE with whom she 1 ived I went back to our LAGS Library where I found members of the WElLAGE family buried in the same cemetery including Edward (1866-1951) and Johanne (1869-1960) Johannes maiden name must have been SIEMS and her death certificate might be helpful to me

But here comes my SOUNDEX BONANZA Claus SIEMS first wife Carol ine He 1ena t~ELTZEINWI SeTEN my great grandmother died in 1890 1eav i ng m grandfather l4illiam as the youngest son age three or four We knew Claus second wife was Arne] iaEmi 1 ie (Penn) REDt1ER I was very surpr i sed not to find her with Claus and the

-229shy

ch i 1dren in 1900 The 1910 census tells me that Claus and Amel ia had been married only six years so 1 looKed her up on the 1900 Soundex where I was surprised to find her as a housekeeper in Pawnee Coun ty southeast of Gage County Since I had searched the Gage County marriage records myself for his sons and hadnt found one for Claus I came home from the Archives and sent off a letter to Pawnee County to asK if Claus and Arne ia were married there By return mail came a c oP y of their marriage 1 icense and certificate IlJith the modest bill of $150 Claus gave his parents as John SIEMS and Mary GETNER

Remember somewhere out there you r elusive record is just waiting for you to figure out its location Keep sleuthing

Remember too that somet imes the information given for such records is wrong The names of Mrs Emel ie REDMER s parents were not completed on the first writing In a I ighter ink th ey are shown as Carl REDMER and Dorothea Z~~KER We have several sources that show REDMER as he r marri ed name including the marriage 1 icense and certificate th emselves where we find MMrs written in by hand

My own mother-in-Jaws death certificate has he r father g iven incorrectly Her bereaved husband gave her mothers fathers name Frances FINN instead of Harvey FISHER although he gave her mother Grace C FINN correctly He knew his in-laws personally but was probably tired and confused at the time and misunderstood the question

Guide to the Soundex System The Soundex filing system alphabetic for the first letter of

surname and numeric thereunder as indicated by divider cards keeps together names of the same and similar sounds but of variant spellings

To search for a par~icular name you must first work out the code number for the surname of the individual No number is asigned to the first Jetter of the surname If the name is Kuhne for example the index card will be in the K segment cil the index The code number for Kuhne worked out according to the system below is 500

Soundex Coding Guide Code Key Letters and Equivalents

1 b p f V

2 cskgjqxz 3 d t 4 1 5 mn 6 r

The letters a e i 0 u y w and h are not coded The first letter of a surname is not codd Every Soundex number must be a3-digit number A

name yielding no code numbers as Lee would thus be L 000 one yielding only on code number would have two zeros added as Kuhne coded as K 500 and one yielding two code numbers would have one zero added as Ebell coded as E 140 Not more than three digits are used so Ebelson would be coded as E 142 not E 1425

When two key leters ~uivalents appear together or one key letter immediately follows or precedes an equivalent the two are coded as one letter by a single number as follows Kelly coded 88 K400

Buerpoundjs coded as B620 ~oyd coded as L300 and Ssbaefer coded as SlGO

If several surnames have the same code the cards for them are arranged alphabetically by given name There are divider cards showing most code numbers but not aiL For instance one divider may be numbered 350 and the next one 400 Between the two divider cards there may be names coded 353 350 360 364 365 and 355 but instead of being in numerical order they are inter-filed alphabetically by given name

Such prefixes to su r names as van Von Di de Ie Di D del a or du are sometimes disregarded in alphabetizing and in coding

SURNAME ADDENDUM

The Surname Addendum is now available for $1 per coPy This booklet was needed to up-date the one our society publ ished several years ago The Addendum contains the surnames of newer members with local ities and t ime periods as well as newly found ancestors of those members included in the original A coPy of the or i g j na 1 is on f i 1 e in our 1 i brary

Reviewed by George Anderson

Three new books are reviewed in this issue of The _ Roots Tracer All are data compilations worth searching by LAGS members All are now on the shelf at our library in the Carnegie Building in Livermore

Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents Volume I August 1986 bullbull Volume II October 1986 Compiled and published by Yates Publishing Company POBox 237 Ozark MO 65721 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 193 pages (VoL I) 245 pages (Vol II) $800 per volume

If you pick up each new issue of The Genealogical Helper and full of hope turn to the index to see if someone else is finally publishing something about your Zutz family you will often find -- Eureka -shyThere it is -- Zutz T021 Turning quickly to page 21 you see a page full of surnames including Zutz in microscopic print Elation tul1S to deflation Now you remember biting on that one every two months

This manic-depressive event is brought to you by the Yates Publishing Company of Ozark Missouri who bought page 21 and surrounding pages for advertising its Family Group Sheet Exchange Yates also publishes Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents the subject of this review

The family group sheet exchange conducted by Yates requires you to send in a family group sheet and a check for $8 in return for which you receive free any and all (up to 40) family group sheets already on file for that surname Yates will also put your pedigree chart into its files without charge and will publicize the names on it

Yates has distilled these two volumes of Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents from its data banks of group sheets and pedigree charts More volumes are apparently on the way We have the first two volumes in our LAGS library In my opinion we also ought to add any future sequels

-241shy

There is no difference in kind between the two books -- evidently the volumes are being released as data entry and reduction proceeds Perhaps each volume contains as much information as the Yates computer can handle at once Here are some statistics Volume I has 8037 marriage records of length 110 bytes each containing full name of bride and groom birth year and place for each marriage year and place and a number keyed to the source document The entire file is printed twice once alphabetically by groom and again alphabetically by bride Source documents (747 in Volume I) are listed twice once by key numer and once alphabetically by author Volume II has somewhat more (10935) marriage records but fewer (513) cited documents

At the end of Volume II is the list of surnames used by Yates in the GH ads again printed in 6-point type Almost 13000 different surnames appear in this list Only one surname (Welhoff) from my ancestry was missing from the 13000 However not one of my ancestors that I know about appears in the marriage lists

There is little chance to assess the accuracy of the data as printed and even less chance to detect errors in the data submitted to Yates I spotted only one obvious data entry error in Volume I but 7 in Volume II A curious pattem in Volume II makes me suspicious of error up to the letter E in the

alphabetical listing by grooms there are roughly the same number of entries derived from group sheets as from pedigree charts while after that almost every one is from pedigrees A computer-wise publisher would insist on an explanation for such non-random behavior

Marriages ofSome American Residents and Guide to Documents is a set of books that all of our members should consult -- it provides a quick and easy index to masses of data

In the spirit of experimental research I decided to put the Yates Family Group Sheet Exchange to the test I have submitted group sheets for my greatshygrandfathers Samuel Black and John Flake and have paid my $16 I will let readers of The Roots Tracer know in a future issue how well the system works

Ancestors We Have Found 1986 Harold Dwain Williams Editor Dale SmathersIndexer Published by the North San Diego County Genealogical Society POBox 581 Carlsbad CA 92008 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 353+viii pages indexed no price given

This book is like our own LAGS Surname Index in purpose but is larger and has some interesting differences in the way it is organized Our book (with supplement) contains 1620 different surnames on 54 pages Ancestors We Have Found contains 3870 different surnames on 361 pages The discrepancy in surnamespage is accounted for by the way the San Diego book is organized it is largely given over to ancestor charts of the sort we have begun printing in The Roots Tracer The full name of each known ancestor of each member of the society is listed with date and place of birth marriage and death if known In contrast our book lists only surnames For each locality associated with that surname we list only one date or range of dates The result is that the San Diego book contains a great deal of information -- including kinship information -- that ours does not It may be that when we have printed enough of our members charts in The Roots Tracer we will want to collect them into a book like Ancestors We Have Found

To test the book from San Diego I searched for a number of names in my family I quickly found that if we ever do publish a book like this wewill need a better index The problem is that many of the ancestor charts are over 10 pages long with 50 namespage but the index refers you only to the members name so you end up scanning through hundreds of names to find the one the index lists The book looks like it has been computerized so it would have been a simple matter to list both the members name and the ancestors number in the index The penalty would have been increasing the size of the index from 30 to perhaps 45 pages

My search finally did produce a hit 1 now have a name in Carlsbad California to correspond with about the Mullikins of Maryland

Are genealogists addicted to word play You might think so to read the titles of genealogy magazines advertised in the most recent issue of The Genealogical Helper I was so intrigued by a few titles that caught my eye that I compUlsively pored over the whole issue writing down example after outrageous example There were at least 33 Most were simply alliterative The Bennington Bunch The Thornton Throng Phillips Family Finder A few were punning Trees Company The Knight Letter One 1 could hardly believe was a rhyme A Crump on Every Stump But my favorite was The ODell Diggins -- I guess if your name is ODell and you get teased often enough about Digger ODell rhe comic undertaker you might as well join in the ftm and name your newsletter after him A fev that I didnt see (I think Ill copyright them) were Rodeau Rooter The Budd Light Bumpp Kin and Kiepcrs Finders

A questionnaire completed by the Civ i l War veteran usuallY included full names and birthdates of his children (at least those under 18 years of age) information about his marriage(s) and any divorc e information Some even have photos tats of Bible records to prove the veterans identity

A few pension records also contain photostatic copies of the marriage 1 icense especially if the ~ltJidow is claiming the pension So you may even get the date and place of marriage and t he names of their parents

In addition to sending for direct 1 i ne ancestors IJJho served in the Civil War dont forget his brothe r s and those of h i s wife In my case it was a brothers file that held a Bible record And an unmarried brothers pension may have been claimed by his mother your direct ancestor Some files euen have letters either furnished as proof of SOffie claim or found in the personal possession of the soldier whe n killed

SOLVE IT WITH SOUNDEX by Shirley Siems Terry

With twenty years experience in genealogy I am someltJhat hesitant to admit that I have rcfally just discovered the wonders of Soundex You see when I began my census searching twenty years ago there didn~t seem to be much need to go through the 1880 Soundex as I knew all four sets of my grea t-grandparen ts were in the same county in the 1880 census and I really wanted to search all of Gage County NE to pick up all the fam1 jar surnames I started ~Yi th the 1880 census and worked back There was no general 1890 census to search because of its loss and the 1900 and 1910 censuses hadnt yet been released

This February decided to search the 1900 and 1910 censuses for clues on my great-grandfather Claus SIEMS I had exhausted the usual sources

On my first trip to the Archives in San Bruno I still had no intention of using the Soundex I expected to find Claus SIEMS either still 1 iving on his farm in Clatonia Twp or in the town of Beatrice at the street address on his 1911 death certificate

The volunteer at the Archives insisted I use the Soundex to locate him in the 1900 census 1 spen t an hour or so figuring out all my Soundex codes for my various surnames and try i ng to find Claus SI EMS under S520 for Nebraska I was amazed at the variety of surnames that end~ with the same code and final1~ noticed that although the last names seemed to have nothing much in common bu t the code the first names were 10 alphabetical or depound (Also several codes are sometimes lumped together) I went through the entire film for his code and cop i ed down the information from index car-ds on all SIEMSSIMSSIMESSEIMS I found some possible brothers for Claus but 1

did NOT find Claus BECAUSE his youngest son was 14 in 1900 and ~ families with children under 10 were Soundexed However I ~Jas gl ad the volunteer had made me search the Soundex as it provided several families of the same surname in other NE counties to follow up on

It also gave me some additional information on a Sophie SIEMS b 1833 dJ923 who had found 1 isted in Cemeteries in Lancaster County Nebraska a book in our own LAGS Library She is in Kramer Cemetery which is in the sw corner township of Lancaster County neighboring my Gage County and very close to my German ancestors In fact one set of my grgrgrandparents is buried in the same ceme tery Odd1 y my Grandmother and a first cousin both had the same maiden name of Sophia DAMKROGER and when the marl i ed brothers they were both Sophia SIEMS so I was very curious about this third lady of the same name born 50 years earl ieI This older one was just the right age to be a sister or sister-in-law to my Claus The 1900 Soundex said she was born April 1833 in Germany and 1 ived in the 01 ive 8ranch Precinct of Lancaster Co as the mother-in-law of Edward H WElLAGE with whom she 1 ived I went back to our LAGS Library where I found members of the WElLAGE family buried in the same cemetery including Edward (1866-1951) and Johanne (1869-1960) Johannes maiden name must have been SIEMS and her death certificate might be helpful to me

But here comes my SOUNDEX BONANZA Claus SIEMS first wife Carol ine He 1ena t~ELTZEINWI SeTEN my great grandmother died in 1890 1eav i ng m grandfather l4illiam as the youngest son age three or four We knew Claus second wife was Arne] iaEmi 1 ie (Penn) REDt1ER I was very surpr i sed not to find her with Claus and the

-229shy

ch i 1dren in 1900 The 1910 census tells me that Claus and Amel ia had been married only six years so 1 looKed her up on the 1900 Soundex where I was surprised to find her as a housekeeper in Pawnee Coun ty southeast of Gage County Since I had searched the Gage County marriage records myself for his sons and hadnt found one for Claus I came home from the Archives and sent off a letter to Pawnee County to asK if Claus and Arne ia were married there By return mail came a c oP y of their marriage 1 icense and certificate IlJith the modest bill of $150 Claus gave his parents as John SIEMS and Mary GETNER

Remember somewhere out there you r elusive record is just waiting for you to figure out its location Keep sleuthing

Remember too that somet imes the information given for such records is wrong The names of Mrs Emel ie REDMER s parents were not completed on the first writing In a I ighter ink th ey are shown as Carl REDMER and Dorothea Z~~KER We have several sources that show REDMER as he r marri ed name including the marriage 1 icense and certificate th emselves where we find MMrs written in by hand

My own mother-in-Jaws death certificate has he r father g iven incorrectly Her bereaved husband gave her mothers fathers name Frances FINN instead of Harvey FISHER although he gave her mother Grace C FINN correctly He knew his in-laws personally but was probably tired and confused at the time and misunderstood the question

Guide to the Soundex System The Soundex filing system alphabetic for the first letter of

surname and numeric thereunder as indicated by divider cards keeps together names of the same and similar sounds but of variant spellings

To search for a par~icular name you must first work out the code number for the surname of the individual No number is asigned to the first Jetter of the surname If the name is Kuhne for example the index card will be in the K segment cil the index The code number for Kuhne worked out according to the system below is 500

Soundex Coding Guide Code Key Letters and Equivalents

1 b p f V

2 cskgjqxz 3 d t 4 1 5 mn 6 r

The letters a e i 0 u y w and h are not coded The first letter of a surname is not codd Every Soundex number must be a3-digit number A

name yielding no code numbers as Lee would thus be L 000 one yielding only on code number would have two zeros added as Kuhne coded as K 500 and one yielding two code numbers would have one zero added as Ebell coded as E 140 Not more than three digits are used so Ebelson would be coded as E 142 not E 1425

When two key leters ~uivalents appear together or one key letter immediately follows or precedes an equivalent the two are coded as one letter by a single number as follows Kelly coded 88 K400

Buerpoundjs coded as B620 ~oyd coded as L300 and Ssbaefer coded as SlGO

If several surnames have the same code the cards for them are arranged alphabetically by given name There are divider cards showing most code numbers but not aiL For instance one divider may be numbered 350 and the next one 400 Between the two divider cards there may be names coded 353 350 360 364 365 and 355 but instead of being in numerical order they are inter-filed alphabetically by given name

Such prefixes to su r names as van Von Di de Ie Di D del a or du are sometimes disregarded in alphabetizing and in coding

Reviewed by George Anderson

Three new books are reviewed in this issue of The _ Roots Tracer All are data compilations worth searching by LAGS members All are now on the shelf at our library in the Carnegie Building in Livermore

Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents Volume I August 1986 bullbull Volume II October 1986 Compiled and published by Yates Publishing Company POBox 237 Ozark MO 65721 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 193 pages (VoL I) 245 pages (Vol II) $800 per volume

If you pick up each new issue of The Genealogical Helper and full of hope turn to the index to see if someone else is finally publishing something about your Zutz family you will often find -- Eureka -shyThere it is -- Zutz T021 Turning quickly to page 21 you see a page full of surnames including Zutz in microscopic print Elation tul1S to deflation Now you remember biting on that one every two months

This manic-depressive event is brought to you by the Yates Publishing Company of Ozark Missouri who bought page 21 and surrounding pages for advertising its Family Group Sheet Exchange Yates also publishes Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents the subject of this review

The family group sheet exchange conducted by Yates requires you to send in a family group sheet and a check for $8 in return for which you receive free any and all (up to 40) family group sheets already on file for that surname Yates will also put your pedigree chart into its files without charge and will publicize the names on it

Yates has distilled these two volumes of Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents from its data banks of group sheets and pedigree charts More volumes are apparently on the way We have the first two volumes in our LAGS library In my opinion we also ought to add any future sequels

-241shy

There is no difference in kind between the two books -- evidently the volumes are being released as data entry and reduction proceeds Perhaps each volume contains as much information as the Yates computer can handle at once Here are some statistics Volume I has 8037 marriage records of length 110 bytes each containing full name of bride and groom birth year and place for each marriage year and place and a number keyed to the source document The entire file is printed twice once alphabetically by groom and again alphabetically by bride Source documents (747 in Volume I) are listed twice once by key numer and once alphabetically by author Volume II has somewhat more (10935) marriage records but fewer (513) cited documents

At the end of Volume II is the list of surnames used by Yates in the GH ads again printed in 6-point type Almost 13000 different surnames appear in this list Only one surname (Welhoff) from my ancestry was missing from the 13000 However not one of my ancestors that I know about appears in the marriage lists

There is little chance to assess the accuracy of the data as printed and even less chance to detect errors in the data submitted to Yates I spotted only one obvious data entry error in Volume I but 7 in Volume II A curious pattem in Volume II makes me suspicious of error up to the letter E in the

alphabetical listing by grooms there are roughly the same number of entries derived from group sheets as from pedigree charts while after that almost every one is from pedigrees A computer-wise publisher would insist on an explanation for such non-random behavior

Marriages ofSome American Residents and Guide to Documents is a set of books that all of our members should consult -- it provides a quick and easy index to masses of data

In the spirit of experimental research I decided to put the Yates Family Group Sheet Exchange to the test I have submitted group sheets for my greatshygrandfathers Samuel Black and John Flake and have paid my $16 I will let readers of The Roots Tracer know in a future issue how well the system works

Ancestors We Have Found 1986 Harold Dwain Williams Editor Dale SmathersIndexer Published by the North San Diego County Genealogical Society POBox 581 Carlsbad CA 92008 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 353+viii pages indexed no price given

This book is like our own LAGS Surname Index in purpose but is larger and has some interesting differences in the way it is organized Our book (with supplement) contains 1620 different surnames on 54 pages Ancestors We Have Found contains 3870 different surnames on 361 pages The discrepancy in surnamespage is accounted for by the way the San Diego book is organized it is largely given over to ancestor charts of the sort we have begun printing in The Roots Tracer The full name of each known ancestor of each member of the society is listed with date and place of birth marriage and death if known In contrast our book lists only surnames For each locality associated with that surname we list only one date or range of dates The result is that the San Diego book contains a great deal of information -- including kinship information -- that ours does not It may be that when we have printed enough of our members charts in The Roots Tracer we will want to collect them into a book like Ancestors We Have Found

To test the book from San Diego I searched for a number of names in my family I quickly found that if we ever do publish a book like this wewill need a better index The problem is that many of the ancestor charts are over 10 pages long with 50 namespage but the index refers you only to the members name so you end up scanning through hundreds of names to find the one the index lists The book looks like it has been computerized so it would have been a simple matter to list both the members name and the ancestors number in the index The penalty would have been increasing the size of the index from 30 to perhaps 45 pages

My search finally did produce a hit 1 now have a name in Carlsbad California to correspond with about the Mullikins of Maryland

Are genealogists addicted to word play You might think so to read the titles of genealogy magazines advertised in the most recent issue of The Genealogical Helper I was so intrigued by a few titles that caught my eye that I compUlsively pored over the whole issue writing down example after outrageous example There were at least 33 Most were simply alliterative The Bennington Bunch The Thornton Throng Phillips Family Finder A few were punning Trees Company The Knight Letter One 1 could hardly believe was a rhyme A Crump on Every Stump But my favorite was The ODell Diggins -- I guess if your name is ODell and you get teased often enough about Digger ODell rhe comic undertaker you might as well join in the ftm and name your newsletter after him A fev that I didnt see (I think Ill copyright them) were Rodeau Rooter The Budd Light Bumpp Kin and Kiepcrs Finders

Mil i tary records are very he 1pfu 1 to the family researcher Besides giuing proof of mil itary service a pension record giues a personal d~scripti o n of him and can furnish clues leading to other sources Civil War pension r ec ords are especially good sources of information Plac e and dat e of entry into the s ervice can hel p you find him in the 1850 and 1860 censuses probably still with his par ents The place of entry may not be his actual place of residence but youll probably find him fairly close If not consider why he chose to join at that place May be youll find relatives in his company Places of residence after discharge are ususal1 y included

A questionnaire completed by the Civ i l War veteran usuallY included full names and birthdates of his children (at least those under 18 years of age) information about his marriage(s) and any divorc e information Some even have photos tats of Bible records to prove the veterans identity

A few pension records also contain photostatic copies of the marriage 1 icense especially if the ~ltJidow is claiming the pension So you may even get the date and place of marriage and t he names of their parents

In addition to sending for direct 1 i ne ancestors IJJho served in the Civil War dont forget his brothe r s and those of h i s wife In my case it was a brothers file that held a Bible record And an unmarried brothers pension may have been claimed by his mother your direct ancestor Some files euen have letters either furnished as proof of SOffie claim or found in the personal possession of the soldier whe n killed

SOLVE IT WITH SOUNDEX by Shirley Siems Terry

With twenty years experience in genealogy I am someltJhat hesitant to admit that I have rcfally just discovered the wonders of Soundex You see when I began my census searching twenty years ago there didn~t seem to be much need to go through the 1880 Soundex as I knew all four sets of my grea t-grandparen ts were in the same county in the 1880 census and I really wanted to search all of Gage County NE to pick up all the fam1 jar surnames I started ~Yi th the 1880 census and worked back There was no general 1890 census to search because of its loss and the 1900 and 1910 censuses hadnt yet been released

This February decided to search the 1900 and 1910 censuses for clues on my great-grandfather Claus SIEMS I had exhausted the usual sources

On my first trip to the Archives in San Bruno I still had no intention of using the Soundex I expected to find Claus SIEMS either still 1 iving on his farm in Clatonia Twp or in the town of Beatrice at the street address on his 1911 death certificate

The volunteer at the Archives insisted I use the Soundex to locate him in the 1900 census 1 spen t an hour or so figuring out all my Soundex codes for my various surnames and try i ng to find Claus SI EMS under S520 for Nebraska I was amazed at the variety of surnames that end~ with the same code and final1~ noticed that although the last names seemed to have nothing much in common bu t the code the first names were 10 alphabetical or depound (Also several codes are sometimes lumped together) I went through the entire film for his code and cop i ed down the information from index car-ds on all SIEMSSIMSSIMESSEIMS I found some possible brothers for Claus but 1

did NOT find Claus BECAUSE his youngest son was 14 in 1900 and ~ families with children under 10 were Soundexed However I ~Jas gl ad the volunteer had made me search the Soundex as it provided several families of the same surname in other NE counties to follow up on

It also gave me some additional information on a Sophie SIEMS b 1833 dJ923 who had found 1 isted in Cemeteries in Lancaster County Nebraska a book in our own LAGS Library She is in Kramer Cemetery which is in the sw corner township of Lancaster County neighboring my Gage County and very close to my German ancestors In fact one set of my grgrgrandparents is buried in the same ceme tery Odd1 y my Grandmother and a first cousin both had the same maiden name of Sophia DAMKROGER and when the marl i ed brothers they were both Sophia SIEMS so I was very curious about this third lady of the same name born 50 years earl ieI This older one was just the right age to be a sister or sister-in-law to my Claus The 1900 Soundex said she was born April 1833 in Germany and 1 ived in the 01 ive 8ranch Precinct of Lancaster Co as the mother-in-law of Edward H WElLAGE with whom she 1 ived I went back to our LAGS Library where I found members of the WElLAGE family buried in the same cemetery including Edward (1866-1951) and Johanne (1869-1960) Johannes maiden name must have been SIEMS and her death certificate might be helpful to me

But here comes my SOUNDEX BONANZA Claus SIEMS first wife Carol ine He 1ena t~ELTZEINWI SeTEN my great grandmother died in 1890 1eav i ng m grandfather l4illiam as the youngest son age three or four We knew Claus second wife was Arne] iaEmi 1 ie (Penn) REDt1ER I was very surpr i sed not to find her with Claus and the

-229shy

ch i 1dren in 1900 The 1910 census tells me that Claus and Amel ia had been married only six years so 1 looKed her up on the 1900 Soundex where I was surprised to find her as a housekeeper in Pawnee Coun ty southeast of Gage County Since I had searched the Gage County marriage records myself for his sons and hadnt found one for Claus I came home from the Archives and sent off a letter to Pawnee County to asK if Claus and Arne ia were married there By return mail came a c oP y of their marriage 1 icense and certificate IlJith the modest bill of $150 Claus gave his parents as John SIEMS and Mary GETNER

Remember somewhere out there you r elusive record is just waiting for you to figure out its location Keep sleuthing

Remember too that somet imes the information given for such records is wrong The names of Mrs Emel ie REDMER s parents were not completed on the first writing In a I ighter ink th ey are shown as Carl REDMER and Dorothea Z~~KER We have several sources that show REDMER as he r marri ed name including the marriage 1 icense and certificate th emselves where we find MMrs written in by hand

My own mother-in-Jaws death certificate has he r father g iven incorrectly Her bereaved husband gave her mothers fathers name Frances FINN instead of Harvey FISHER although he gave her mother Grace C FINN correctly He knew his in-laws personally but was probably tired and confused at the time and misunderstood the question

Guide to the Soundex System The Soundex filing system alphabetic for the first letter of

surname and numeric thereunder as indicated by divider cards keeps together names of the same and similar sounds but of variant spellings

To search for a par~icular name you must first work out the code number for the surname of the individual No number is asigned to the first Jetter of the surname If the name is Kuhne for example the index card will be in the K segment cil the index The code number for Kuhne worked out according to the system below is 500

Soundex Coding Guide Code Key Letters and Equivalents

1 b p f V

2 cskgjqxz 3 d t 4 1 5 mn 6 r

The letters a e i 0 u y w and h are not coded The first letter of a surname is not codd Every Soundex number must be a3-digit number A

name yielding no code numbers as Lee would thus be L 000 one yielding only on code number would have two zeros added as Kuhne coded as K 500 and one yielding two code numbers would have one zero added as Ebell coded as E 140 Not more than three digits are used so Ebelson would be coded as E 142 not E 1425

When two key leters ~uivalents appear together or one key letter immediately follows or precedes an equivalent the two are coded as one letter by a single number as follows Kelly coded 88 K400

Buerpoundjs coded as B620 ~oyd coded as L300 and Ssbaefer coded as SlGO

If several surnames have the same code the cards for them are arranged alphabetically by given name There are divider cards showing most code numbers but not aiL For instance one divider may be numbered 350 and the next one 400 Between the two divider cards there may be names coded 353 350 360 364 365 and 355 but instead of being in numerical order they are inter-filed alphabetically by given name

Such prefixes to su r names as van Von Di de Ie Di D del a or du are sometimes disregarded in alphabetizing and in coding

SURNAME ADDENDUM

The Surname Addendum is now available for $1 per coPy This booklet was needed to up-date the one our society publ ished several years ago The Addendum contains the surnames of newer members with local ities and t ime periods as well as newly found ancestors of those members included in the original A coPy of the or i g j na 1 is on f i 1 e in our 1 i brary

Reviewed by George Anderson

Three new books are reviewed in this issue of The _ Roots Tracer All are data compilations worth searching by LAGS members All are now on the shelf at our library in the Carnegie Building in Livermore

Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents Volume I August 1986 bullbull Volume II October 1986 Compiled and published by Yates Publishing Company POBox 237 Ozark MO 65721 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 193 pages (VoL I) 245 pages (Vol II) $800 per volume

If you pick up each new issue of The Genealogical Helper and full of hope turn to the index to see if someone else is finally publishing something about your Zutz family you will often find -- Eureka -shyThere it is -- Zutz T021 Turning quickly to page 21 you see a page full of surnames including Zutz in microscopic print Elation tul1S to deflation Now you remember biting on that one every two months

This manic-depressive event is brought to you by the Yates Publishing Company of Ozark Missouri who bought page 21 and surrounding pages for advertising its Family Group Sheet Exchange Yates also publishes Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents the subject of this review

The family group sheet exchange conducted by Yates requires you to send in a family group sheet and a check for $8 in return for which you receive free any and all (up to 40) family group sheets already on file for that surname Yates will also put your pedigree chart into its files without charge and will publicize the names on it

Yates has distilled these two volumes of Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents from its data banks of group sheets and pedigree charts More volumes are apparently on the way We have the first two volumes in our LAGS library In my opinion we also ought to add any future sequels

-241shy

There is no difference in kind between the two books -- evidently the volumes are being released as data entry and reduction proceeds Perhaps each volume contains as much information as the Yates computer can handle at once Here are some statistics Volume I has 8037 marriage records of length 110 bytes each containing full name of bride and groom birth year and place for each marriage year and place and a number keyed to the source document The entire file is printed twice once alphabetically by groom and again alphabetically by bride Source documents (747 in Volume I) are listed twice once by key numer and once alphabetically by author Volume II has somewhat more (10935) marriage records but fewer (513) cited documents

At the end of Volume II is the list of surnames used by Yates in the GH ads again printed in 6-point type Almost 13000 different surnames appear in this list Only one surname (Welhoff) from my ancestry was missing from the 13000 However not one of my ancestors that I know about appears in the marriage lists

There is little chance to assess the accuracy of the data as printed and even less chance to detect errors in the data submitted to Yates I spotted only one obvious data entry error in Volume I but 7 in Volume II A curious pattem in Volume II makes me suspicious of error up to the letter E in the

alphabetical listing by grooms there are roughly the same number of entries derived from group sheets as from pedigree charts while after that almost every one is from pedigrees A computer-wise publisher would insist on an explanation for such non-random behavior

Marriages ofSome American Residents and Guide to Documents is a set of books that all of our members should consult -- it provides a quick and easy index to masses of data

In the spirit of experimental research I decided to put the Yates Family Group Sheet Exchange to the test I have submitted group sheets for my greatshygrandfathers Samuel Black and John Flake and have paid my $16 I will let readers of The Roots Tracer know in a future issue how well the system works

Ancestors We Have Found 1986 Harold Dwain Williams Editor Dale SmathersIndexer Published by the North San Diego County Genealogical Society POBox 581 Carlsbad CA 92008 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 353+viii pages indexed no price given

This book is like our own LAGS Surname Index in purpose but is larger and has some interesting differences in the way it is organized Our book (with supplement) contains 1620 different surnames on 54 pages Ancestors We Have Found contains 3870 different surnames on 361 pages The discrepancy in surnamespage is accounted for by the way the San Diego book is organized it is largely given over to ancestor charts of the sort we have begun printing in The Roots Tracer The full name of each known ancestor of each member of the society is listed with date and place of birth marriage and death if known In contrast our book lists only surnames For each locality associated with that surname we list only one date or range of dates The result is that the San Diego book contains a great deal of information -- including kinship information -- that ours does not It may be that when we have printed enough of our members charts in The Roots Tracer we will want to collect them into a book like Ancestors We Have Found

To test the book from San Diego I searched for a number of names in my family I quickly found that if we ever do publish a book like this wewill need a better index The problem is that many of the ancestor charts are over 10 pages long with 50 namespage but the index refers you only to the members name so you end up scanning through hundreds of names to find the one the index lists The book looks like it has been computerized so it would have been a simple matter to list both the members name and the ancestors number in the index The penalty would have been increasing the size of the index from 30 to perhaps 45 pages

My search finally did produce a hit 1 now have a name in Carlsbad California to correspond with about the Mullikins of Maryland

Are genealogists addicted to word play You might think so to read the titles of genealogy magazines advertised in the most recent issue of The Genealogical Helper I was so intrigued by a few titles that caught my eye that I compUlsively pored over the whole issue writing down example after outrageous example There were at least 33 Most were simply alliterative The Bennington Bunch The Thornton Throng Phillips Family Finder A few were punning Trees Company The Knight Letter One 1 could hardly believe was a rhyme A Crump on Every Stump But my favorite was The ODell Diggins -- I guess if your name is ODell and you get teased often enough about Digger ODell rhe comic undertaker you might as well join in the ftm and name your newsletter after him A fev that I didnt see (I think Ill copyright them) were Rodeau Rooter The Budd Light Bumpp Kin and Kiepcrs Finders

Mil i tary records are very he 1pfu 1 to the family researcher Besides giuing proof of mil itary service a pension record giues a personal d~scripti o n of him and can furnish clues leading to other sources Civil War pension r ec ords are especially good sources of information Plac e and dat e of entry into the s ervice can hel p you find him in the 1850 and 1860 censuses probably still with his par ents The place of entry may not be his actual place of residence but youll probably find him fairly close If not consider why he chose to join at that place May be youll find relatives in his company Places of residence after discharge are ususal1 y included

A questionnaire completed by the Civ i l War veteran usuallY included full names and birthdates of his children (at least those under 18 years of age) information about his marriage(s) and any divorc e information Some even have photos tats of Bible records to prove the veterans identity

A few pension records also contain photostatic copies of the marriage 1 icense especially if the ~ltJidow is claiming the pension So you may even get the date and place of marriage and t he names of their parents

In addition to sending for direct 1 i ne ancestors IJJho served in the Civil War dont forget his brothe r s and those of h i s wife In my case it was a brothers file that held a Bible record And an unmarried brothers pension may have been claimed by his mother your direct ancestor Some files euen have letters either furnished as proof of SOffie claim or found in the personal possession of the soldier whe n killed

SOLVE IT WITH SOUNDEX by Shirley Siems Terry

With twenty years experience in genealogy I am someltJhat hesitant to admit that I have rcfally just discovered the wonders of Soundex You see when I began my census searching twenty years ago there didn~t seem to be much need to go through the 1880 Soundex as I knew all four sets of my grea t-grandparen ts were in the same county in the 1880 census and I really wanted to search all of Gage County NE to pick up all the fam1 jar surnames I started ~Yi th the 1880 census and worked back There was no general 1890 census to search because of its loss and the 1900 and 1910 censuses hadnt yet been released

This February decided to search the 1900 and 1910 censuses for clues on my great-grandfather Claus SIEMS I had exhausted the usual sources

On my first trip to the Archives in San Bruno I still had no intention of using the Soundex I expected to find Claus SIEMS either still 1 iving on his farm in Clatonia Twp or in the town of Beatrice at the street address on his 1911 death certificate

The volunteer at the Archives insisted I use the Soundex to locate him in the 1900 census 1 spen t an hour or so figuring out all my Soundex codes for my various surnames and try i ng to find Claus SI EMS under S520 for Nebraska I was amazed at the variety of surnames that end~ with the same code and final1~ noticed that although the last names seemed to have nothing much in common bu t the code the first names were 10 alphabetical or depound (Also several codes are sometimes lumped together) I went through the entire film for his code and cop i ed down the information from index car-ds on all SIEMSSIMSSIMESSEIMS I found some possible brothers for Claus but 1

did NOT find Claus BECAUSE his youngest son was 14 in 1900 and ~ families with children under 10 were Soundexed However I ~Jas gl ad the volunteer had made me search the Soundex as it provided several families of the same surname in other NE counties to follow up on

It also gave me some additional information on a Sophie SIEMS b 1833 dJ923 who had found 1 isted in Cemeteries in Lancaster County Nebraska a book in our own LAGS Library She is in Kramer Cemetery which is in the sw corner township of Lancaster County neighboring my Gage County and very close to my German ancestors In fact one set of my grgrgrandparents is buried in the same ceme tery Odd1 y my Grandmother and a first cousin both had the same maiden name of Sophia DAMKROGER and when the marl i ed brothers they were both Sophia SIEMS so I was very curious about this third lady of the same name born 50 years earl ieI This older one was just the right age to be a sister or sister-in-law to my Claus The 1900 Soundex said she was born April 1833 in Germany and 1 ived in the 01 ive 8ranch Precinct of Lancaster Co as the mother-in-law of Edward H WElLAGE with whom she 1 ived I went back to our LAGS Library where I found members of the WElLAGE family buried in the same cemetery including Edward (1866-1951) and Johanne (1869-1960) Johannes maiden name must have been SIEMS and her death certificate might be helpful to me

But here comes my SOUNDEX BONANZA Claus SIEMS first wife Carol ine He 1ena t~ELTZEINWI SeTEN my great grandmother died in 1890 1eav i ng m grandfather l4illiam as the youngest son age three or four We knew Claus second wife was Arne] iaEmi 1 ie (Penn) REDt1ER I was very surpr i sed not to find her with Claus and the

-229shy

ch i 1dren in 1900 The 1910 census tells me that Claus and Amel ia had been married only six years so 1 looKed her up on the 1900 Soundex where I was surprised to find her as a housekeeper in Pawnee Coun ty southeast of Gage County Since I had searched the Gage County marriage records myself for his sons and hadnt found one for Claus I came home from the Archives and sent off a letter to Pawnee County to asK if Claus and Arne ia were married there By return mail came a c oP y of their marriage 1 icense and certificate IlJith the modest bill of $150 Claus gave his parents as John SIEMS and Mary GETNER

Remember somewhere out there you r elusive record is just waiting for you to figure out its location Keep sleuthing

Remember too that somet imes the information given for such records is wrong The names of Mrs Emel ie REDMER s parents were not completed on the first writing In a I ighter ink th ey are shown as Carl REDMER and Dorothea Z~~KER We have several sources that show REDMER as he r marri ed name including the marriage 1 icense and certificate th emselves where we find MMrs written in by hand

My own mother-in-Jaws death certificate has he r father g iven incorrectly Her bereaved husband gave her mothers fathers name Frances FINN instead of Harvey FISHER although he gave her mother Grace C FINN correctly He knew his in-laws personally but was probably tired and confused at the time and misunderstood the question

Guide to the Soundex System The Soundex filing system alphabetic for the first letter of

surname and numeric thereunder as indicated by divider cards keeps together names of the same and similar sounds but of variant spellings

To search for a par~icular name you must first work out the code number for the surname of the individual No number is asigned to the first Jetter of the surname If the name is Kuhne for example the index card will be in the K segment cil the index The code number for Kuhne worked out according to the system below is 500

Soundex Coding Guide Code Key Letters and Equivalents

1 b p f V

2 cskgjqxz 3 d t 4 1 5 mn 6 r

The letters a e i 0 u y w and h are not coded The first letter of a surname is not codd Every Soundex number must be a3-digit number A

name yielding no code numbers as Lee would thus be L 000 one yielding only on code number would have two zeros added as Kuhne coded as K 500 and one yielding two code numbers would have one zero added as Ebell coded as E 140 Not more than three digits are used so Ebelson would be coded as E 142 not E 1425

When two key leters ~uivalents appear together or one key letter immediately follows or precedes an equivalent the two are coded as one letter by a single number as follows Kelly coded 88 K400

Buerpoundjs coded as B620 ~oyd coded as L300 and Ssbaefer coded as SlGO

If several surnames have the same code the cards for them are arranged alphabetically by given name There are divider cards showing most code numbers but not aiL For instance one divider may be numbered 350 and the next one 400 Between the two divider cards there may be names coded 353 350 360 364 365 and 355 but instead of being in numerical order they are inter-filed alphabetically by given name

Such prefixes to su r names as van Von Di de Ie Di D del a or du are sometimes disregarded in alphabetizing and in coding

Reviewed by George Anderson

Three new books are reviewed in this issue of The _ Roots Tracer All are data compilations worth searching by LAGS members All are now on the shelf at our library in the Carnegie Building in Livermore

Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents Volume I August 1986 bullbull Volume II October 1986 Compiled and published by Yates Publishing Company POBox 237 Ozark MO 65721 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 193 pages (VoL I) 245 pages (Vol II) $800 per volume

If you pick up each new issue of The Genealogical Helper and full of hope turn to the index to see if someone else is finally publishing something about your Zutz family you will often find -- Eureka -shyThere it is -- Zutz T021 Turning quickly to page 21 you see a page full of surnames including Zutz in microscopic print Elation tul1S to deflation Now you remember biting on that one every two months

This manic-depressive event is brought to you by the Yates Publishing Company of Ozark Missouri who bought page 21 and surrounding pages for advertising its Family Group Sheet Exchange Yates also publishes Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents the subject of this review

The family group sheet exchange conducted by Yates requires you to send in a family group sheet and a check for $8 in return for which you receive free any and all (up to 40) family group sheets already on file for that surname Yates will also put your pedigree chart into its files without charge and will publicize the names on it

Yates has distilled these two volumes of Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents from its data banks of group sheets and pedigree charts More volumes are apparently on the way We have the first two volumes in our LAGS library In my opinion we also ought to add any future sequels

-241shy

There is no difference in kind between the two books -- evidently the volumes are being released as data entry and reduction proceeds Perhaps each volume contains as much information as the Yates computer can handle at once Here are some statistics Volume I has 8037 marriage records of length 110 bytes each containing full name of bride and groom birth year and place for each marriage year and place and a number keyed to the source document The entire file is printed twice once alphabetically by groom and again alphabetically by bride Source documents (747 in Volume I) are listed twice once by key numer and once alphabetically by author Volume II has somewhat more (10935) marriage records but fewer (513) cited documents

At the end of Volume II is the list of surnames used by Yates in the GH ads again printed in 6-point type Almost 13000 different surnames appear in this list Only one surname (Welhoff) from my ancestry was missing from the 13000 However not one of my ancestors that I know about appears in the marriage lists

There is little chance to assess the accuracy of the data as printed and even less chance to detect errors in the data submitted to Yates I spotted only one obvious data entry error in Volume I but 7 in Volume II A curious pattem in Volume II makes me suspicious of error up to the letter E in the

alphabetical listing by grooms there are roughly the same number of entries derived from group sheets as from pedigree charts while after that almost every one is from pedigrees A computer-wise publisher would insist on an explanation for such non-random behavior

Marriages ofSome American Residents and Guide to Documents is a set of books that all of our members should consult -- it provides a quick and easy index to masses of data

In the spirit of experimental research I decided to put the Yates Family Group Sheet Exchange to the test I have submitted group sheets for my greatshygrandfathers Samuel Black and John Flake and have paid my $16 I will let readers of The Roots Tracer know in a future issue how well the system works

Ancestors We Have Found 1986 Harold Dwain Williams Editor Dale SmathersIndexer Published by the North San Diego County Genealogical Society POBox 581 Carlsbad CA 92008 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 353+viii pages indexed no price given

This book is like our own LAGS Surname Index in purpose but is larger and has some interesting differences in the way it is organized Our book (with supplement) contains 1620 different surnames on 54 pages Ancestors We Have Found contains 3870 different surnames on 361 pages The discrepancy in surnamespage is accounted for by the way the San Diego book is organized it is largely given over to ancestor charts of the sort we have begun printing in The Roots Tracer The full name of each known ancestor of each member of the society is listed with date and place of birth marriage and death if known In contrast our book lists only surnames For each locality associated with that surname we list only one date or range of dates The result is that the San Diego book contains a great deal of information -- including kinship information -- that ours does not It may be that when we have printed enough of our members charts in The Roots Tracer we will want to collect them into a book like Ancestors We Have Found

To test the book from San Diego I searched for a number of names in my family I quickly found that if we ever do publish a book like this wewill need a better index The problem is that many of the ancestor charts are over 10 pages long with 50 namespage but the index refers you only to the members name so you end up scanning through hundreds of names to find the one the index lists The book looks like it has been computerized so it would have been a simple matter to list both the members name and the ancestors number in the index The penalty would have been increasing the size of the index from 30 to perhaps 45 pages

My search finally did produce a hit 1 now have a name in Carlsbad California to correspond with about the Mullikins of Maryland

Are genealogists addicted to word play You might think so to read the titles of genealogy magazines advertised in the most recent issue of The Genealogical Helper I was so intrigued by a few titles that caught my eye that I compUlsively pored over the whole issue writing down example after outrageous example There were at least 33 Most were simply alliterative The Bennington Bunch The Thornton Throng Phillips Family Finder A few were punning Trees Company The Knight Letter One 1 could hardly believe was a rhyme A Crump on Every Stump But my favorite was The ODell Diggins -- I guess if your name is ODell and you get teased often enough about Digger ODell rhe comic undertaker you might as well join in the ftm and name your newsletter after him A fev that I didnt see (I think Ill copyright them) were Rodeau Rooter The Budd Light Bumpp Kin and Kiepcrs Finders

Mil i tary records are very he 1pfu 1 to the family researcher Besides giuing proof of mil itary service a pension record giues a personal d~scripti o n of him and can furnish clues leading to other sources Civil War pension r ec ords are especially good sources of information Plac e and dat e of entry into the s ervice can hel p you find him in the 1850 and 1860 censuses probably still with his par ents The place of entry may not be his actual place of residence but youll probably find him fairly close If not consider why he chose to join at that place May be youll find relatives in his company Places of residence after discharge are ususal1 y included

A questionnaire completed by the Civ i l War veteran usuallY included full names and birthdates of his children (at least those under 18 years of age) information about his marriage(s) and any divorc e information Some even have photos tats of Bible records to prove the veterans identity

A few pension records also contain photostatic copies of the marriage 1 icense especially if the ~ltJidow is claiming the pension So you may even get the date and place of marriage and t he names of their parents

SOLVE IT WITH SOUNDEX by Shirley Siems Terry

With twenty years experience in genealogy I am someltJhat hesitant to admit that I have rcfally just discovered the wonders of Soundex You see when I began my census searching twenty years ago there didn~t seem to be much need to go through the 1880 Soundex as I knew all four sets of my grea t-grandparen ts were in the same county in the 1880 census and I really wanted to search all of Gage County NE to pick up all the fam1 jar surnames I started ~Yi th the 1880 census and worked back There was no general 1890 census to search because of its loss and the 1900 and 1910 censuses hadnt yet been released

This February decided to search the 1900 and 1910 censuses for clues on my great-grandfather Claus SIEMS I had exhausted the usual sources

On my first trip to the Archives in San Bruno I still had no intention of using the Soundex I expected to find Claus SIEMS either still 1 iving on his farm in Clatonia Twp or in the town of Beatrice at the street address on his 1911 death certificate

The volunteer at the Archives insisted I use the Soundex to locate him in the 1900 census 1 spen t an hour or so figuring out all my Soundex codes for my various surnames and try i ng to find Claus SI EMS under S520 for Nebraska I was amazed at the variety of surnames that end~ with the same code and final1~ noticed that although the last names seemed to have nothing much in common bu t the code the first names were 10 alphabetical or depound (Also several codes are sometimes lumped together) I went through the entire film for his code and cop i ed down the information from index car-ds on all SIEMSSIMSSIMESSEIMS I found some possible brothers for Claus but 1

did NOT find Claus BECAUSE his youngest son was 14 in 1900 and ~ families with children under 10 were Soundexed However I ~Jas gl ad the volunteer had made me search the Soundex as it provided several families of the same surname in other NE counties to follow up on

It also gave me some additional information on a Sophie SIEMS b 1833 dJ923 who had found 1 isted in Cemeteries in Lancaster County Nebraska a book in our own LAGS Library She is in Kramer Cemetery which is in the sw corner township of Lancaster County neighboring my Gage County and very close to my German ancestors In fact one set of my grgrgrandparents is buried in the same ceme tery Odd1 y my Grandmother and a first cousin both had the same maiden name of Sophia DAMKROGER and when the marl i ed brothers they were both Sophia SIEMS so I was very curious about this third lady of the same name born 50 years earl ieI This older one was just the right age to be a sister or sister-in-law to my Claus The 1900 Soundex said she was born April 1833 in Germany and 1 ived in the 01 ive 8ranch Precinct of Lancaster Co as the mother-in-law of Edward H WElLAGE with whom she 1 ived I went back to our LAGS Library where I found members of the WElLAGE family buried in the same cemetery including Edward (1866-1951) and Johanne (1869-1960) Johannes maiden name must have been SIEMS and her death certificate might be helpful to me

But here comes my SOUNDEX BONANZA Claus SIEMS first wife Carol ine He 1ena t~ELTZEINWI SeTEN my great grandmother died in 1890 1eav i ng m grandfather l4illiam as the youngest son age three or four We knew Claus second wife was Arne] iaEmi 1 ie (Penn) REDt1ER I was very surpr i sed not to find her with Claus and the

-229shy

ch i 1dren in 1900 The 1910 census tells me that Claus and Amel ia had been married only six years so 1 looKed her up on the 1900 Soundex where I was surprised to find her as a housekeeper in Pawnee Coun ty southeast of Gage County Since I had searched the Gage County marriage records myself for his sons and hadnt found one for Claus I came home from the Archives and sent off a letter to Pawnee County to asK if Claus and Arne ia were married there By return mail came a c oP y of their marriage 1 icense and certificate IlJith the modest bill of $150 Claus gave his parents as John SIEMS and Mary GETNER

Remember somewhere out there you r elusive record is just waiting for you to figure out its location Keep sleuthing

Remember too that somet imes the information given for such records is wrong The names of Mrs Emel ie REDMER s parents were not completed on the first writing In a I ighter ink th ey are shown as Carl REDMER and Dorothea Z~~KER We have several sources that show REDMER as he r marri ed name including the marriage 1 icense and certificate th emselves where we find MMrs written in by hand

My own mother-in-Jaws death certificate has he r father g iven incorrectly Her bereaved husband gave her mothers fathers name Frances FINN instead of Harvey FISHER although he gave her mother Grace C FINN correctly He knew his in-laws personally but was probably tired and confused at the time and misunderstood the question

Guide to the Soundex System The Soundex filing system alphabetic for the first letter of

surname and numeric thereunder as indicated by divider cards keeps together names of the same and similar sounds but of variant spellings

To search for a par~icular name you must first work out the code number for the surname of the individual No number is asigned to the first Jetter of the surname If the name is Kuhne for example the index card will be in the K segment cil the index The code number for Kuhne worked out according to the system below is 500

Soundex Coding Guide Code Key Letters and Equivalents

1 b p f V

2 cskgjqxz 3 d t 4 1 5 mn 6 r

The letters a e i 0 u y w and h are not coded The first letter of a surname is not codd Every Soundex number must be a3-digit number A

name yielding no code numbers as Lee would thus be L 000 one yielding only on code number would have two zeros added as Kuhne coded as K 500 and one yielding two code numbers would have one zero added as Ebell coded as E 140 Not more than three digits are used so Ebelson would be coded as E 142 not E 1425

When two key leters ~uivalents appear together or one key letter immediately follows or precedes an equivalent the two are coded as one letter by a single number as follows Kelly coded 88 K400

Buerpoundjs coded as B620 ~oyd coded as L300 and Ssbaefer coded as SlGO

If several surnames have the same code the cards for them are arranged alphabetically by given name There are divider cards showing most code numbers but not aiL For instance one divider may be numbered 350 and the next one 400 Between the two divider cards there may be names coded 353 350 360 364 365 and 355 but instead of being in numerical order they are inter-filed alphabetically by given name

Such prefixes to su r names as van Von Di de Ie Di D del a or du are sometimes disregarded in alphabetizing and in coding

SURNAME ADDENDUM

The Surname Addendum is now available for $1 per coPy This booklet was needed to up-date the one our society publ ished several years ago The Addendum contains the surnames of newer members with local ities and t ime periods as well as newly found ancestors of those members included in the original A coPy of the or i g j na 1 is on f i 1 e in our 1 i brary

Reviewed by George Anderson

Three new books are reviewed in this issue of The _ Roots Tracer All are data compilations worth searching by LAGS members All are now on the shelf at our library in the Carnegie Building in Livermore

Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents Volume I August 1986 bullbull Volume II October 1986 Compiled and published by Yates Publishing Company POBox 237 Ozark MO 65721 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 193 pages (VoL I) 245 pages (Vol II) $800 per volume

If you pick up each new issue of The Genealogical Helper and full of hope turn to the index to see if someone else is finally publishing something about your Zutz family you will often find -- Eureka -shyThere it is -- Zutz T021 Turning quickly to page 21 you see a page full of surnames including Zutz in microscopic print Elation tul1S to deflation Now you remember biting on that one every two months

This manic-depressive event is brought to you by the Yates Publishing Company of Ozark Missouri who bought page 21 and surrounding pages for advertising its Family Group Sheet Exchange Yates also publishes Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents the subject of this review

The family group sheet exchange conducted by Yates requires you to send in a family group sheet and a check for $8 in return for which you receive free any and all (up to 40) family group sheets already on file for that surname Yates will also put your pedigree chart into its files without charge and will publicize the names on it

Yates has distilled these two volumes of Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents from its data banks of group sheets and pedigree charts More volumes are apparently on the way We have the first two volumes in our LAGS library In my opinion we also ought to add any future sequels

-241shy

There is no difference in kind between the two books -- evidently the volumes are being released as data entry and reduction proceeds Perhaps each volume contains as much information as the Yates computer can handle at once Here are some statistics Volume I has 8037 marriage records of length 110 bytes each containing full name of bride and groom birth year and place for each marriage year and place and a number keyed to the source document The entire file is printed twice once alphabetically by groom and again alphabetically by bride Source documents (747 in Volume I) are listed twice once by key numer and once alphabetically by author Volume II has somewhat more (10935) marriage records but fewer (513) cited documents

At the end of Volume II is the list of surnames used by Yates in the GH ads again printed in 6-point type Almost 13000 different surnames appear in this list Only one surname (Welhoff) from my ancestry was missing from the 13000 However not one of my ancestors that I know about appears in the marriage lists

There is little chance to assess the accuracy of the data as printed and even less chance to detect errors in the data submitted to Yates I spotted only one obvious data entry error in Volume I but 7 in Volume II A curious pattem in Volume II makes me suspicious of error up to the letter E in the

alphabetical listing by grooms there are roughly the same number of entries derived from group sheets as from pedigree charts while after that almost every one is from pedigrees A computer-wise publisher would insist on an explanation for such non-random behavior

Marriages ofSome American Residents and Guide to Documents is a set of books that all of our members should consult -- it provides a quick and easy index to masses of data

In the spirit of experimental research I decided to put the Yates Family Group Sheet Exchange to the test I have submitted group sheets for my greatshygrandfathers Samuel Black and John Flake and have paid my $16 I will let readers of The Roots Tracer know in a future issue how well the system works

Ancestors We Have Found 1986 Harold Dwain Williams Editor Dale SmathersIndexer Published by the North San Diego County Genealogical Society POBox 581 Carlsbad CA 92008 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 353+viii pages indexed no price given

This book is like our own LAGS Surname Index in purpose but is larger and has some interesting differences in the way it is organized Our book (with supplement) contains 1620 different surnames on 54 pages Ancestors We Have Found contains 3870 different surnames on 361 pages The discrepancy in surnamespage is accounted for by the way the San Diego book is organized it is largely given over to ancestor charts of the sort we have begun printing in The Roots Tracer The full name of each known ancestor of each member of the society is listed with date and place of birth marriage and death if known In contrast our book lists only surnames For each locality associated with that surname we list only one date or range of dates The result is that the San Diego book contains a great deal of information -- including kinship information -- that ours does not It may be that when we have printed enough of our members charts in The Roots Tracer we will want to collect them into a book like Ancestors We Have Found

To test the book from San Diego I searched for a number of names in my family I quickly found that if we ever do publish a book like this wewill need a better index The problem is that many of the ancestor charts are over 10 pages long with 50 namespage but the index refers you only to the members name so you end up scanning through hundreds of names to find the one the index lists The book looks like it has been computerized so it would have been a simple matter to list both the members name and the ancestors number in the index The penalty would have been increasing the size of the index from 30 to perhaps 45 pages

My search finally did produce a hit 1 now have a name in Carlsbad California to correspond with about the Mullikins of Maryland

Are genealogists addicted to word play You might think so to read the titles of genealogy magazines advertised in the most recent issue of The Genealogical Helper I was so intrigued by a few titles that caught my eye that I compUlsively pored over the whole issue writing down example after outrageous example There were at least 33 Most were simply alliterative The Bennington Bunch The Thornton Throng Phillips Family Finder A few were punning Trees Company The Knight Letter One 1 could hardly believe was a rhyme A Crump on Every Stump But my favorite was The ODell Diggins -- I guess if your name is ODell and you get teased often enough about Digger ODell rhe comic undertaker you might as well join in the ftm and name your newsletter after him A fev that I didnt see (I think Ill copyright them) were Rodeau Rooter The Budd Light Bumpp Kin and Kiepcrs Finders

A cl ipping from a FUNKHOUSER familY newsletter included some mind boggl ing facts about the number of ancestors each person has Paul FUNKHOUSER heard the following statement at a graduation program Since everyone must have two parents and since a generation is approximately twenty-five years (the average number of years from the birth of a male until the birth of his first child) then there have been thirty-seven gen~rations since the Normans invaded England in 1066 AD Since that is so then we each have had almost 275 bi 11 ion ancestors (274a77906944) since 1066 AD Since the cur r ent world population is only 4 12 bi 11i ol1 ( 4 422000000) as of 1981 I according to the Readers Digest World Atlas and since most Cultural Geographers and Anthropologists agree that there are more people on the earth now than the tota1 of those lJho 1 i ved before th i s time we must conc 1 ude tha t the present and past total could not exceed 9 bill ion people Since we each have had 30 times as many ancestors during the past 920 years as have ever 1 ived on this earth we can on l y draw one is that each of each other many anyone can find reasoning to be that lAJed all 1 ike

A modest gentleman in speaking of his family said The Hardson family is a very very old family The 1 ine runs away back into antiquity We do not Know how far bacK it runs but itsa long long way bacK and the history of the Hardson family is recorded in five volumes In about the middle of the third volume in a marginal note we read About this time the world was created u

from uThe Publ ic SpeaKers Treasure Chest by Prochnow

For your next family birthday party or reunion why not ask each relative to bring ten family trivia cards written on unl ined index cards with questions on one s i de answers on the other ProvoKe memor ies of past pets cars vacations celebrations embarrassments special events awards etc New cards can be brought to each family celebration and added to the Hdeck of memories A

This idea could also be appl ied to a family newsletter by putting Questions on one page and answers on another and asking relatives to participate by submitting their own memories I can hardly wait to try this one on my cousins bold iron bed 1 ike my daughter has now R The answer would be What was Grandpa Schanacha sitting on when it was strucK by 1 ightening causing his death

Mil i tary records are very he 1pfu 1 to the family researcher Besides giuing proof of mil itary service a pension record giues a personal d~scripti o n of him and can furnish clues leading to other sources Civil War pension r ec ords are especially good sources of information Plac e and dat e of entry into the s ervice can hel p you find him in the 1850 and 1860 censuses probably still with his par ents The place of entry may not be his actual place of residence but youll probably find him fairly close If not consider why he chose to join at that place May be youll find relatives in his company Places of residence after discharge are ususal1 y included

A questionnaire completed by the Civ i l War veteran usuallY included full names and birthdates of his children (at least those under 18 years of age) information about his marriage(s) and any divorc e information Some even have photos tats of Bible records to prove the veterans identity

A few pension records also contain photostatic copies of the marriage 1 icense especially if the ~ltJidow is claiming the pension So you may even get the date and place of marriage and t he names of their parents

In addition to sending for direct 1 i ne ancestors IJJho served in the Civil War dont forget his brothe r s and those of h i s wife In my case it was a brothers file that held a Bible record And an unmarried brothers pension may have been claimed by his mother your direct ancestor Some files euen have letters either furnished as proof of SOffie claim or found in the personal possession of the soldier whe n killed

SOLVE IT WITH SOUNDEX by Shirley Siems Terry

With twenty years experience in genealogy I am someltJhat hesitant to admit that I have rcfally just discovered the wonders of Soundex You see when I began my census searching twenty years ago there didn~t seem to be much need to go through the 1880 Soundex as I knew all four sets of my grea t-grandparen ts were in the same county in the 1880 census and I really wanted to search all of Gage County NE to pick up all the fam1 jar surnames I started ~Yi th the 1880 census and worked back There was no general 1890 census to search because of its loss and the 1900 and 1910 censuses hadnt yet been released

This February decided to search the 1900 and 1910 censuses for clues on my great-grandfather Claus SIEMS I had exhausted the usual sources

On my first trip to the Archives in San Bruno I still had no intention of using the Soundex I expected to find Claus SIEMS either still 1 iving on his farm in Clatonia Twp or in the town of Beatrice at the street address on his 1911 death certificate

The volunteer at the Archives insisted I use the Soundex to locate him in the 1900 census 1 spen t an hour or so figuring out all my Soundex codes for my various surnames and try i ng to find Claus SI EMS under S520 for Nebraska I was amazed at the variety of surnames that end~ with the same code and final1~ noticed that although the last names seemed to have nothing much in common bu t the code the first names were 10 alphabetical or depound (Also several codes are sometimes lumped together) I went through the entire film for his code and cop i ed down the information from index car-ds on all SIEMSSIMSSIMESSEIMS I found some possible brothers for Claus but 1

did NOT find Claus BECAUSE his youngest son was 14 in 1900 and ~ families with children under 10 were Soundexed However I ~Jas gl ad the volunteer had made me search the Soundex as it provided several families of the same surname in other NE counties to follow up on

It also gave me some additional information on a Sophie SIEMS b 1833 dJ923 who had found 1 isted in Cemeteries in Lancaster County Nebraska a book in our own LAGS Library She is in Kramer Cemetery which is in the sw corner township of Lancaster County neighboring my Gage County and very close to my German ancestors In fact one set of my grgrgrandparents is buried in the same ceme tery Odd1 y my Grandmother and a first cousin both had the same maiden name of Sophia DAMKROGER and when the marl i ed brothers they were both Sophia SIEMS so I was very curious about this third lady of the same name born 50 years earl ieI This older one was just the right age to be a sister or sister-in-law to my Claus The 1900 Soundex said she was born April 1833 in Germany and 1 ived in the 01 ive 8ranch Precinct of Lancaster Co as the mother-in-law of Edward H WElLAGE with whom she 1 ived I went back to our LAGS Library where I found members of the WElLAGE family buried in the same cemetery including Edward (1866-1951) and Johanne (1869-1960) Johannes maiden name must have been SIEMS and her death certificate might be helpful to me

But here comes my SOUNDEX BONANZA Claus SIEMS first wife Carol ine He 1ena t~ELTZEINWI SeTEN my great grandmother died in 1890 1eav i ng m grandfather l4illiam as the youngest son age three or four We knew Claus second wife was Arne] iaEmi 1 ie (Penn) REDt1ER I was very surpr i sed not to find her with Claus and the

-229shy

ch i 1dren in 1900 The 1910 census tells me that Claus and Amel ia had been married only six years so 1 looKed her up on the 1900 Soundex where I was surprised to find her as a housekeeper in Pawnee Coun ty southeast of Gage County Since I had searched the Gage County marriage records myself for his sons and hadnt found one for Claus I came home from the Archives and sent off a letter to Pawnee County to asK if Claus and Arne ia were married there By return mail came a c oP y of their marriage 1 icense and certificate IlJith the modest bill of $150 Claus gave his parents as John SIEMS and Mary GETNER

Remember somewhere out there you r elusive record is just waiting for you to figure out its location Keep sleuthing

Remember too that somet imes the information given for such records is wrong The names of Mrs Emel ie REDMER s parents were not completed on the first writing In a I ighter ink th ey are shown as Carl REDMER and Dorothea Z~~KER We have several sources that show REDMER as he r marri ed name including the marriage 1 icense and certificate th emselves where we find MMrs written in by hand

My own mother-in-Jaws death certificate has he r father g iven incorrectly Her bereaved husband gave her mothers fathers name Frances FINN instead of Harvey FISHER although he gave her mother Grace C FINN correctly He knew his in-laws personally but was probably tired and confused at the time and misunderstood the question

Guide to the Soundex System The Soundex filing system alphabetic for the first letter of

surname and numeric thereunder as indicated by divider cards keeps together names of the same and similar sounds but of variant spellings

To search for a par~icular name you must first work out the code number for the surname of the individual No number is asigned to the first Jetter of the surname If the name is Kuhne for example the index card will be in the K segment cil the index The code number for Kuhne worked out according to the system below is 500

Soundex Coding Guide Code Key Letters and Equivalents

1 b p f V

2 cskgjqxz 3 d t 4 1 5 mn 6 r

The letters a e i 0 u y w and h are not coded The first letter of a surname is not codd Every Soundex number must be a3-digit number A

name yielding no code numbers as Lee would thus be L 000 one yielding only on code number would have two zeros added as Kuhne coded as K 500 and one yielding two code numbers would have one zero added as Ebell coded as E 140 Not more than three digits are used so Ebelson would be coded as E 142 not E 1425

When two key leters ~uivalents appear together or one key letter immediately follows or precedes an equivalent the two are coded as one letter by a single number as follows Kelly coded 88 K400

Buerpoundjs coded as B620 ~oyd coded as L300 and Ssbaefer coded as SlGO

If several surnames have the same code the cards for them are arranged alphabetically by given name There are divider cards showing most code numbers but not aiL For instance one divider may be numbered 350 and the next one 400 Between the two divider cards there may be names coded 353 350 360 364 365 and 355 but instead of being in numerical order they are inter-filed alphabetically by given name

Such prefixes to su r names as van Von Di de Ie Di D del a or du are sometimes disregarded in alphabetizing and in coding

SURNAME ADDENDUM

The Surname Addendum is now available for $1 per coPy This booklet was needed to up-date the one our society publ ished several years ago The Addendum contains the surnames of newer members with local ities and t ime periods as well as newly found ancestors of those members included in the original A coPy of the or i g j na 1 is on f i 1 e in our 1 i brary

Reviewed by George Anderson

Three new books are reviewed in this issue of The _ Roots Tracer All are data compilations worth searching by LAGS members All are now on the shelf at our library in the Carnegie Building in Livermore

Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents Volume I August 1986 bullbull Volume II October 1986 Compiled and published by Yates Publishing Company POBox 237 Ozark MO 65721 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 193 pages (VoL I) 245 pages (Vol II) $800 per volume

If you pick up each new issue of The Genealogical Helper and full of hope turn to the index to see if someone else is finally publishing something about your Zutz family you will often find -- Eureka -shyThere it is -- Zutz T021 Turning quickly to page 21 you see a page full of surnames including Zutz in microscopic print Elation tul1S to deflation Now you remember biting on that one every two months

This manic-depressive event is brought to you by the Yates Publishing Company of Ozark Missouri who bought page 21 and surrounding pages for advertising its Family Group Sheet Exchange Yates also publishes Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents the subject of this review

The family group sheet exchange conducted by Yates requires you to send in a family group sheet and a check for $8 in return for which you receive free any and all (up to 40) family group sheets already on file for that surname Yates will also put your pedigree chart into its files without charge and will publicize the names on it

Yates has distilled these two volumes of Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents from its data banks of group sheets and pedigree charts More volumes are apparently on the way We have the first two volumes in our LAGS library In my opinion we also ought to add any future sequels

-241shy

There is no difference in kind between the two books -- evidently the volumes are being released as data entry and reduction proceeds Perhaps each volume contains as much information as the Yates computer can handle at once Here are some statistics Volume I has 8037 marriage records of length 110 bytes each containing full name of bride and groom birth year and place for each marriage year and place and a number keyed to the source document The entire file is printed twice once alphabetically by groom and again alphabetically by bride Source documents (747 in Volume I) are listed twice once by key numer and once alphabetically by author Volume II has somewhat more (10935) marriage records but fewer (513) cited documents

At the end of Volume II is the list of surnames used by Yates in the GH ads again printed in 6-point type Almost 13000 different surnames appear in this list Only one surname (Welhoff) from my ancestry was missing from the 13000 However not one of my ancestors that I know about appears in the marriage lists

There is little chance to assess the accuracy of the data as printed and even less chance to detect errors in the data submitted to Yates I spotted only one obvious data entry error in Volume I but 7 in Volume II A curious pattem in Volume II makes me suspicious of error up to the letter E in the

alphabetical listing by grooms there are roughly the same number of entries derived from group sheets as from pedigree charts while after that almost every one is from pedigrees A computer-wise publisher would insist on an explanation for such non-random behavior

Marriages ofSome American Residents and Guide to Documents is a set of books that all of our members should consult -- it provides a quick and easy index to masses of data

In the spirit of experimental research I decided to put the Yates Family Group Sheet Exchange to the test I have submitted group sheets for my greatshygrandfathers Samuel Black and John Flake and have paid my $16 I will let readers of The Roots Tracer know in a future issue how well the system works

Ancestors We Have Found 1986 Harold Dwain Williams Editor Dale SmathersIndexer Published by the North San Diego County Genealogical Society POBox 581 Carlsbad CA 92008 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 353+viii pages indexed no price given

This book is like our own LAGS Surname Index in purpose but is larger and has some interesting differences in the way it is organized Our book (with supplement) contains 1620 different surnames on 54 pages Ancestors We Have Found contains 3870 different surnames on 361 pages The discrepancy in surnamespage is accounted for by the way the San Diego book is organized it is largely given over to ancestor charts of the sort we have begun printing in The Roots Tracer The full name of each known ancestor of each member of the society is listed with date and place of birth marriage and death if known In contrast our book lists only surnames For each locality associated with that surname we list only one date or range of dates The result is that the San Diego book contains a great deal of information -- including kinship information -- that ours does not It may be that when we have printed enough of our members charts in The Roots Tracer we will want to collect them into a book like Ancestors We Have Found

To test the book from San Diego I searched for a number of names in my family I quickly found that if we ever do publish a book like this wewill need a better index The problem is that many of the ancestor charts are over 10 pages long with 50 namespage but the index refers you only to the members name so you end up scanning through hundreds of names to find the one the index lists The book looks like it has been computerized so it would have been a simple matter to list both the members name and the ancestors number in the index The penalty would have been increasing the size of the index from 30 to perhaps 45 pages

My search finally did produce a hit 1 now have a name in Carlsbad California to correspond with about the Mullikins of Maryland

Are genealogists addicted to word play You might think so to read the titles of genealogy magazines advertised in the most recent issue of The Genealogical Helper I was so intrigued by a few titles that caught my eye that I compUlsively pored over the whole issue writing down example after outrageous example There were at least 33 Most were simply alliterative The Bennington Bunch The Thornton Throng Phillips Family Finder A few were punning Trees Company The Knight Letter One 1 could hardly believe was a rhyme A Crump on Every Stump But my favorite was The ODell Diggins -- I guess if your name is ODell and you get teased often enough about Digger ODell rhe comic undertaker you might as well join in the ftm and name your newsletter after him A fev that I didnt see (I think Ill copyright them) were Rodeau Rooter The Budd Light Bumpp Kin and Kiepcrs Finders

A cl ipping from a FUNKHOUSER familY newsletter included some mind boggl ing facts about the number of ancestors each person has Paul FUNKHOUSER heard the following statement at a graduation program Since everyone must have two parents and since a generation is approximately twenty-five years (the average number of years from the birth of a male until the birth of his first child) then there have been thirty-seven gen~rations since the Normans invaded England in 1066 AD Since that is so then we each have had almost 275 bi 11 ion ancestors (274a77906944) since 1066 AD Since the cur r ent world population is only 4 12 bi 11i ol1 ( 4 422000000) as of 1981 I according to the Readers Digest World Atlas and since most Cultural Geographers and Anthropologists agree that there are more people on the earth now than the tota1 of those lJho 1 i ved before th i s time we must conc 1 ude tha t the present and past total could not exceed 9 bill ion people Since we each have had 30 times as many ancestors during the past 920 years as have ever 1 ived on this earth we can on l y draw one is that each of each other many anyone can find reasoning to be that lAJed all 1 ike

For your next family birthday party or reunion why not ask each relative to bring ten family trivia cards written on unl ined index cards with questions on one s i de answers on the other ProvoKe memor ies of past pets cars vacations celebrations embarrassments special events awards etc New cards can be brought to each family celebration and added to the Hdeck of memories A

This idea could also be appl ied to a family newsletter by putting Questions on one page and answers on another and asking relatives to participate by submitting their own memories I can hardly wait to try this one on my cousins bold iron bed 1 ike my daughter has now R The answer would be What was Grandpa Schanacha sitting on when it was strucK by 1 ightening causing his death

Mil i tary records are very he 1pfu 1 to the family researcher Besides giuing proof of mil itary service a pension record giues a personal d~scripti o n of him and can furnish clues leading to other sources Civil War pension r ec ords are especially good sources of information Plac e and dat e of entry into the s ervice can hel p you find him in the 1850 and 1860 censuses probably still with his par ents The place of entry may not be his actual place of residence but youll probably find him fairly close If not consider why he chose to join at that place May be youll find relatives in his company Places of residence after discharge are ususal1 y included

A questionnaire completed by the Civ i l War veteran usuallY included full names and birthdates of his children (at least those under 18 years of age) information about his marriage(s) and any divorc e information Some even have photos tats of Bible records to prove the veterans identity

A few pension records also contain photostatic copies of the marriage 1 icense especially if the ~ltJidow is claiming the pension So you may even get the date and place of marriage and t he names of their parents

In addition to sending for direct 1 i ne ancestors IJJho served in the Civil War dont forget his brothe r s and those of h i s wife In my case it was a brothers file that held a Bible record And an unmarried brothers pension may have been claimed by his mother your direct ancestor Some files euen have letters either furnished as proof of SOffie claim or found in the personal possession of the soldier whe n killed

SOLVE IT WITH SOUNDEX by Shirley Siems Terry

With twenty years experience in genealogy I am someltJhat hesitant to admit that I have rcfally just discovered the wonders of Soundex You see when I began my census searching twenty years ago there didn~t seem to be much need to go through the 1880 Soundex as I knew all four sets of my grea t-grandparen ts were in the same county in the 1880 census and I really wanted to search all of Gage County NE to pick up all the fam1 jar surnames I started ~Yi th the 1880 census and worked back There was no general 1890 census to search because of its loss and the 1900 and 1910 censuses hadnt yet been released

This February decided to search the 1900 and 1910 censuses for clues on my great-grandfather Claus SIEMS I had exhausted the usual sources

On my first trip to the Archives in San Bruno I still had no intention of using the Soundex I expected to find Claus SIEMS either still 1 iving on his farm in Clatonia Twp or in the town of Beatrice at the street address on his 1911 death certificate

The volunteer at the Archives insisted I use the Soundex to locate him in the 1900 census 1 spen t an hour or so figuring out all my Soundex codes for my various surnames and try i ng to find Claus SI EMS under S520 for Nebraska I was amazed at the variety of surnames that end~ with the same code and final1~ noticed that although the last names seemed to have nothing much in common bu t the code the first names were 10 alphabetical or depound (Also several codes are sometimes lumped together) I went through the entire film for his code and cop i ed down the information from index car-ds on all SIEMSSIMSSIMESSEIMS I found some possible brothers for Claus but 1

did NOT find Claus BECAUSE his youngest son was 14 in 1900 and ~ families with children under 10 were Soundexed However I ~Jas gl ad the volunteer had made me search the Soundex as it provided several families of the same surname in other NE counties to follow up on

It also gave me some additional information on a Sophie SIEMS b 1833 dJ923 who had found 1 isted in Cemeteries in Lancaster County Nebraska a book in our own LAGS Library She is in Kramer Cemetery which is in the sw corner township of Lancaster County neighboring my Gage County and very close to my German ancestors In fact one set of my grgrgrandparents is buried in the same ceme tery Odd1 y my Grandmother and a first cousin both had the same maiden name of Sophia DAMKROGER and when the marl i ed brothers they were both Sophia SIEMS so I was very curious about this third lady of the same name born 50 years earl ieI This older one was just the right age to be a sister or sister-in-law to my Claus The 1900 Soundex said she was born April 1833 in Germany and 1 ived in the 01 ive 8ranch Precinct of Lancaster Co as the mother-in-law of Edward H WElLAGE with whom she 1 ived I went back to our LAGS Library where I found members of the WElLAGE family buried in the same cemetery including Edward (1866-1951) and Johanne (1869-1960) Johannes maiden name must have been SIEMS and her death certificate might be helpful to me

But here comes my SOUNDEX BONANZA Claus SIEMS first wife Carol ine He 1ena t~ELTZEINWI SeTEN my great grandmother died in 1890 1eav i ng m grandfather l4illiam as the youngest son age three or four We knew Claus second wife was Arne] iaEmi 1 ie (Penn) REDt1ER I was very surpr i sed not to find her with Claus and the

-229shy

ch i 1dren in 1900 The 1910 census tells me that Claus and Amel ia had been married only six years so 1 looKed her up on the 1900 Soundex where I was surprised to find her as a housekeeper in Pawnee Coun ty southeast of Gage County Since I had searched the Gage County marriage records myself for his sons and hadnt found one for Claus I came home from the Archives and sent off a letter to Pawnee County to asK if Claus and Arne ia were married there By return mail came a c oP y of their marriage 1 icense and certificate IlJith the modest bill of $150 Claus gave his parents as John SIEMS and Mary GETNER

Remember somewhere out there you r elusive record is just waiting for you to figure out its location Keep sleuthing

Remember too that somet imes the information given for such records is wrong The names of Mrs Emel ie REDMER s parents were not completed on the first writing In a I ighter ink th ey are shown as Carl REDMER and Dorothea Z~~KER We have several sources that show REDMER as he r marri ed name including the marriage 1 icense and certificate th emselves where we find MMrs written in by hand

My own mother-in-Jaws death certificate has he r father g iven incorrectly Her bereaved husband gave her mothers fathers name Frances FINN instead of Harvey FISHER although he gave her mother Grace C FINN correctly He knew his in-laws personally but was probably tired and confused at the time and misunderstood the question

Guide to the Soundex System The Soundex filing system alphabetic for the first letter of

surname and numeric thereunder as indicated by divider cards keeps together names of the same and similar sounds but of variant spellings

To search for a par~icular name you must first work out the code number for the surname of the individual No number is asigned to the first Jetter of the surname If the name is Kuhne for example the index card will be in the K segment cil the index The code number for Kuhne worked out according to the system below is 500

Soundex Coding Guide Code Key Letters and Equivalents

1 b p f V

2 cskgjqxz 3 d t 4 1 5 mn 6 r

The letters a e i 0 u y w and h are not coded The first letter of a surname is not codd Every Soundex number must be a3-digit number A

name yielding no code numbers as Lee would thus be L 000 one yielding only on code number would have two zeros added as Kuhne coded as K 500 and one yielding two code numbers would have one zero added as Ebell coded as E 140 Not more than three digits are used so Ebelson would be coded as E 142 not E 1425

When two key leters ~uivalents appear together or one key letter immediately follows or precedes an equivalent the two are coded as one letter by a single number as follows Kelly coded 88 K400

Buerpoundjs coded as B620 ~oyd coded as L300 and Ssbaefer coded as SlGO

If several surnames have the same code the cards for them are arranged alphabetically by given name There are divider cards showing most code numbers but not aiL For instance one divider may be numbered 350 and the next one 400 Between the two divider cards there may be names coded 353 350 360 364 365 and 355 but instead of being in numerical order they are inter-filed alphabetically by given name

Such prefixes to su r names as van Von Di de Ie Di D del a or du are sometimes disregarded in alphabetizing and in coding

SURNAME ADDENDUM

The Surname Addendum is now available for $1 per coPy This booklet was needed to up-date the one our society publ ished several years ago The Addendum contains the surnames of newer members with local ities and t ime periods as well as newly found ancestors of those members included in the original A coPy of the or i g j na 1 is on f i 1 e in our 1 i brary

Reviewed by George Anderson

Three new books are reviewed in this issue of The _ Roots Tracer All are data compilations worth searching by LAGS members All are now on the shelf at our library in the Carnegie Building in Livermore

Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents Volume I August 1986 bullbull Volume II October 1986 Compiled and published by Yates Publishing Company POBox 237 Ozark MO 65721 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 193 pages (VoL I) 245 pages (Vol II) $800 per volume

If you pick up each new issue of The Genealogical Helper and full of hope turn to the index to see if someone else is finally publishing something about your Zutz family you will often find -- Eureka -shyThere it is -- Zutz T021 Turning quickly to page 21 you see a page full of surnames including Zutz in microscopic print Elation tul1S to deflation Now you remember biting on that one every two months

This manic-depressive event is brought to you by the Yates Publishing Company of Ozark Missouri who bought page 21 and surrounding pages for advertising its Family Group Sheet Exchange Yates also publishes Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents the subject of this review

The family group sheet exchange conducted by Yates requires you to send in a family group sheet and a check for $8 in return for which you receive free any and all (up to 40) family group sheets already on file for that surname Yates will also put your pedigree chart into its files without charge and will publicize the names on it

Yates has distilled these two volumes of Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents from its data banks of group sheets and pedigree charts More volumes are apparently on the way We have the first two volumes in our LAGS library In my opinion we also ought to add any future sequels

-241shy

There is no difference in kind between the two books -- evidently the volumes are being released as data entry and reduction proceeds Perhaps each volume contains as much information as the Yates computer can handle at once Here are some statistics Volume I has 8037 marriage records of length 110 bytes each containing full name of bride and groom birth year and place for each marriage year and place and a number keyed to the source document The entire file is printed twice once alphabetically by groom and again alphabetically by bride Source documents (747 in Volume I) are listed twice once by key numer and once alphabetically by author Volume II has somewhat more (10935) marriage records but fewer (513) cited documents

At the end of Volume II is the list of surnames used by Yates in the GH ads again printed in 6-point type Almost 13000 different surnames appear in this list Only one surname (Welhoff) from my ancestry was missing from the 13000 However not one of my ancestors that I know about appears in the marriage lists

There is little chance to assess the accuracy of the data as printed and even less chance to detect errors in the data submitted to Yates I spotted only one obvious data entry error in Volume I but 7 in Volume II A curious pattem in Volume II makes me suspicious of error up to the letter E in the

alphabetical listing by grooms there are roughly the same number of entries derived from group sheets as from pedigree charts while after that almost every one is from pedigrees A computer-wise publisher would insist on an explanation for such non-random behavior

Marriages ofSome American Residents and Guide to Documents is a set of books that all of our members should consult -- it provides a quick and easy index to masses of data

In the spirit of experimental research I decided to put the Yates Family Group Sheet Exchange to the test I have submitted group sheets for my greatshygrandfathers Samuel Black and John Flake and have paid my $16 I will let readers of The Roots Tracer know in a future issue how well the system works

Ancestors We Have Found 1986 Harold Dwain Williams Editor Dale SmathersIndexer Published by the North San Diego County Genealogical Society POBox 581 Carlsbad CA 92008 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 353+viii pages indexed no price given

This book is like our own LAGS Surname Index in purpose but is larger and has some interesting differences in the way it is organized Our book (with supplement) contains 1620 different surnames on 54 pages Ancestors We Have Found contains 3870 different surnames on 361 pages The discrepancy in surnamespage is accounted for by the way the San Diego book is organized it is largely given over to ancestor charts of the sort we have begun printing in The Roots Tracer The full name of each known ancestor of each member of the society is listed with date and place of birth marriage and death if known In contrast our book lists only surnames For each locality associated with that surname we list only one date or range of dates The result is that the San Diego book contains a great deal of information -- including kinship information -- that ours does not It may be that when we have printed enough of our members charts in The Roots Tracer we will want to collect them into a book like Ancestors We Have Found

To test the book from San Diego I searched for a number of names in my family I quickly found that if we ever do publish a book like this wewill need a better index The problem is that many of the ancestor charts are over 10 pages long with 50 namespage but the index refers you only to the members name so you end up scanning through hundreds of names to find the one the index lists The book looks like it has been computerized so it would have been a simple matter to list both the members name and the ancestors number in the index The penalty would have been increasing the size of the index from 30 to perhaps 45 pages

My search finally did produce a hit 1 now have a name in Carlsbad California to correspond with about the Mullikins of Maryland

Are genealogists addicted to word play You might think so to read the titles of genealogy magazines advertised in the most recent issue of The Genealogical Helper I was so intrigued by a few titles that caught my eye that I compUlsively pored over the whole issue writing down example after outrageous example There were at least 33 Most were simply alliterative The Bennington Bunch The Thornton Throng Phillips Family Finder A few were punning Trees Company The Knight Letter One 1 could hardly believe was a rhyme A Crump on Every Stump But my favorite was The ODell Diggins -- I guess if your name is ODell and you get teased often enough about Digger ODell rhe comic undertaker you might as well join in the ftm and name your newsletter after him A fev that I didnt see (I think Ill copyright them) were Rodeau Rooter The Budd Light Bumpp Kin and Kiepcrs Finders

SOLVE IT WITH SOUNDEX by Shirley Siems Terry

With twenty years experience in genealogy I am someltJhat hesitant to admit that I have rcfally just discovered the wonders of Soundex You see when I began my census searching twenty years ago there didn~t seem to be much need to go through the 1880 Soundex as I knew all four sets of my grea t-grandparen ts were in the same county in the 1880 census and I really wanted to search all of Gage County NE to pick up all the fam1 jar surnames I started ~Yi th the 1880 census and worked back There was no general 1890 census to search because of its loss and the 1900 and 1910 censuses hadnt yet been released

This February decided to search the 1900 and 1910 censuses for clues on my great-grandfather Claus SIEMS I had exhausted the usual sources

On my first trip to the Archives in San Bruno I still had no intention of using the Soundex I expected to find Claus SIEMS either still 1 iving on his farm in Clatonia Twp or in the town of Beatrice at the street address on his 1911 death certificate

The volunteer at the Archives insisted I use the Soundex to locate him in the 1900 census 1 spen t an hour or so figuring out all my Soundex codes for my various surnames and try i ng to find Claus SI EMS under S520 for Nebraska I was amazed at the variety of surnames that end~ with the same code and final1~ noticed that although the last names seemed to have nothing much in common bu t the code the first names were 10 alphabetical or depound (Also several codes are sometimes lumped together) I went through the entire film for his code and cop i ed down the information from index car-ds on all SIEMSSIMSSIMESSEIMS I found some possible brothers for Claus but 1

did NOT find Claus BECAUSE his youngest son was 14 in 1900 and ~ families with children under 10 were Soundexed However I ~Jas gl ad the volunteer had made me search the Soundex as it provided several families of the same surname in other NE counties to follow up on

It also gave me some additional information on a Sophie SIEMS b 1833 dJ923 who had found 1 isted in Cemeteries in Lancaster County Nebraska a book in our own LAGS Library She is in Kramer Cemetery which is in the sw corner township of Lancaster County neighboring my Gage County and very close to my German ancestors In fact one set of my grgrgrandparents is buried in the same ceme tery Odd1 y my Grandmother and a first cousin both had the same maiden name of Sophia DAMKROGER and when the marl i ed brothers they were both Sophia SIEMS so I was very curious about this third lady of the same name born 50 years earl ieI This older one was just the right age to be a sister or sister-in-law to my Claus The 1900 Soundex said she was born April 1833 in Germany and 1 ived in the 01 ive 8ranch Precinct of Lancaster Co as the mother-in-law of Edward H WElLAGE with whom she 1 ived I went back to our LAGS Library where I found members of the WElLAGE family buried in the same cemetery including Edward (1866-1951) and Johanne (1869-1960) Johannes maiden name must have been SIEMS and her death certificate might be helpful to me

But here comes my SOUNDEX BONANZA Claus SIEMS first wife Carol ine He 1ena t~ELTZEINWI SeTEN my great grandmother died in 1890 1eav i ng m grandfather l4illiam as the youngest son age three or four We knew Claus second wife was Arne] iaEmi 1 ie (Penn) REDt1ER I was very surpr i sed not to find her with Claus and the

-229shy

ch i 1dren in 1900 The 1910 census tells me that Claus and Amel ia had been married only six years so 1 looKed her up on the 1900 Soundex where I was surprised to find her as a housekeeper in Pawnee Coun ty southeast of Gage County Since I had searched the Gage County marriage records myself for his sons and hadnt found one for Claus I came home from the Archives and sent off a letter to Pawnee County to asK if Claus and Arne ia were married there By return mail came a c oP y of their marriage 1 icense and certificate IlJith the modest bill of $150 Claus gave his parents as John SIEMS and Mary GETNER

Remember somewhere out there you r elusive record is just waiting for you to figure out its location Keep sleuthing

Remember too that somet imes the information given for such records is wrong The names of Mrs Emel ie REDMER s parents were not completed on the first writing In a I ighter ink th ey are shown as Carl REDMER and Dorothea Z~~KER We have several sources that show REDMER as he r marri ed name including the marriage 1 icense and certificate th emselves where we find MMrs written in by hand

My own mother-in-Jaws death certificate has he r father g iven incorrectly Her bereaved husband gave her mothers fathers name Frances FINN instead of Harvey FISHER although he gave her mother Grace C FINN correctly He knew his in-laws personally but was probably tired and confused at the time and misunderstood the question

Guide to the Soundex System The Soundex filing system alphabetic for the first letter of

surname and numeric thereunder as indicated by divider cards keeps together names of the same and similar sounds but of variant spellings

To search for a par~icular name you must first work out the code number for the surname of the individual No number is asigned to the first Jetter of the surname If the name is Kuhne for example the index card will be in the K segment cil the index The code number for Kuhne worked out according to the system below is 500

Soundex Coding Guide Code Key Letters and Equivalents

1 b p f V

2 cskgjqxz 3 d t 4 1 5 mn 6 r

The letters a e i 0 u y w and h are not coded The first letter of a surname is not codd Every Soundex number must be a3-digit number A

name yielding no code numbers as Lee would thus be L 000 one yielding only on code number would have two zeros added as Kuhne coded as K 500 and one yielding two code numbers would have one zero added as Ebell coded as E 140 Not more than three digits are used so Ebelson would be coded as E 142 not E 1425

When two key leters ~uivalents appear together or one key letter immediately follows or precedes an equivalent the two are coded as one letter by a single number as follows Kelly coded 88 K400

Buerpoundjs coded as B620 ~oyd coded as L300 and Ssbaefer coded as SlGO

If several surnames have the same code the cards for them are arranged alphabetically by given name There are divider cards showing most code numbers but not aiL For instance one divider may be numbered 350 and the next one 400 Between the two divider cards there may be names coded 353 350 360 364 365 and 355 but instead of being in numerical order they are inter-filed alphabetically by given name

Such prefixes to su r names as van Von Di de Ie Di D del a or du are sometimes disregarded in alphabetizing and in coding

Reviewed by George Anderson

Three new books are reviewed in this issue of The _ Roots Tracer All are data compilations worth searching by LAGS members All are now on the shelf at our library in the Carnegie Building in Livermore

Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents Volume I August 1986 bullbull Volume II October 1986 Compiled and published by Yates Publishing Company POBox 237 Ozark MO 65721 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 193 pages (VoL I) 245 pages (Vol II) $800 per volume

If you pick up each new issue of The Genealogical Helper and full of hope turn to the index to see if someone else is finally publishing something about your Zutz family you will often find -- Eureka -shyThere it is -- Zutz T021 Turning quickly to page 21 you see a page full of surnames including Zutz in microscopic print Elation tul1S to deflation Now you remember biting on that one every two months

This manic-depressive event is brought to you by the Yates Publishing Company of Ozark Missouri who bought page 21 and surrounding pages for advertising its Family Group Sheet Exchange Yates also publishes Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents the subject of this review

The family group sheet exchange conducted by Yates requires you to send in a family group sheet and a check for $8 in return for which you receive free any and all (up to 40) family group sheets already on file for that surname Yates will also put your pedigree chart into its files without charge and will publicize the names on it

Yates has distilled these two volumes of Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents from its data banks of group sheets and pedigree charts More volumes are apparently on the way We have the first two volumes in our LAGS library In my opinion we also ought to add any future sequels

-241shy

There is no difference in kind between the two books -- evidently the volumes are being released as data entry and reduction proceeds Perhaps each volume contains as much information as the Yates computer can handle at once Here are some statistics Volume I has 8037 marriage records of length 110 bytes each containing full name of bride and groom birth year and place for each marriage year and place and a number keyed to the source document The entire file is printed twice once alphabetically by groom and again alphabetically by bride Source documents (747 in Volume I) are listed twice once by key numer and once alphabetically by author Volume II has somewhat more (10935) marriage records but fewer (513) cited documents

At the end of Volume II is the list of surnames used by Yates in the GH ads again printed in 6-point type Almost 13000 different surnames appear in this list Only one surname (Welhoff) from my ancestry was missing from the 13000 However not one of my ancestors that I know about appears in the marriage lists

There is little chance to assess the accuracy of the data as printed and even less chance to detect errors in the data submitted to Yates I spotted only one obvious data entry error in Volume I but 7 in Volume II A curious pattem in Volume II makes me suspicious of error up to the letter E in the

alphabetical listing by grooms there are roughly the same number of entries derived from group sheets as from pedigree charts while after that almost every one is from pedigrees A computer-wise publisher would insist on an explanation for such non-random behavior

Marriages ofSome American Residents and Guide to Documents is a set of books that all of our members should consult -- it provides a quick and easy index to masses of data

In the spirit of experimental research I decided to put the Yates Family Group Sheet Exchange to the test I have submitted group sheets for my greatshygrandfathers Samuel Black and John Flake and have paid my $16 I will let readers of The Roots Tracer know in a future issue how well the system works

Ancestors We Have Found 1986 Harold Dwain Williams Editor Dale SmathersIndexer Published by the North San Diego County Genealogical Society POBox 581 Carlsbad CA 92008 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 353+viii pages indexed no price given

This book is like our own LAGS Surname Index in purpose but is larger and has some interesting differences in the way it is organized Our book (with supplement) contains 1620 different surnames on 54 pages Ancestors We Have Found contains 3870 different surnames on 361 pages The discrepancy in surnamespage is accounted for by the way the San Diego book is organized it is largely given over to ancestor charts of the sort we have begun printing in The Roots Tracer The full name of each known ancestor of each member of the society is listed with date and place of birth marriage and death if known In contrast our book lists only surnames For each locality associated with that surname we list only one date or range of dates The result is that the San Diego book contains a great deal of information -- including kinship information -- that ours does not It may be that when we have printed enough of our members charts in The Roots Tracer we will want to collect them into a book like Ancestors We Have Found

To test the book from San Diego I searched for a number of names in my family I quickly found that if we ever do publish a book like this wewill need a better index The problem is that many of the ancestor charts are over 10 pages long with 50 namespage but the index refers you only to the members name so you end up scanning through hundreds of names to find the one the index lists The book looks like it has been computerized so it would have been a simple matter to list both the members name and the ancestors number in the index The penalty would have been increasing the size of the index from 30 to perhaps 45 pages

My search finally did produce a hit 1 now have a name in Carlsbad California to correspond with about the Mullikins of Maryland

Are genealogists addicted to word play You might think so to read the titles of genealogy magazines advertised in the most recent issue of The Genealogical Helper I was so intrigued by a few titles that caught my eye that I compUlsively pored over the whole issue writing down example after outrageous example There were at least 33 Most were simply alliterative The Bennington Bunch The Thornton Throng Phillips Family Finder A few were punning Trees Company The Knight Letter One 1 could hardly believe was a rhyme A Crump on Every Stump But my favorite was The ODell Diggins -- I guess if your name is ODell and you get teased often enough about Digger ODell rhe comic undertaker you might as well join in the ftm and name your newsletter after him A fev that I didnt see (I think Ill copyright them) were Rodeau Rooter The Budd Light Bumpp Kin and Kiepcrs Finders

For your next family birthday party or reunion why not ask each relative to bring ten family trivia cards written on unl ined index cards with questions on one s i de answers on the other ProvoKe memor ies of past pets cars vacations celebrations embarrassments special events awards etc New cards can be brought to each family celebration and added to the Hdeck of memories A

This idea could also be appl ied to a family newsletter by putting Questions on one page and answers on another and asking relatives to participate by submitting their own memories I can hardly wait to try this one on my cousins bold iron bed 1 ike my daughter has now R The answer would be What was Grandpa Schanacha sitting on when it was strucK by 1 ightening causing his death

ch i 1dren in 1900 The 1910 census tells me that Claus and Amel ia had been married only six years so 1 looKed her up on the 1900 Soundex where I was surprised to find her as a housekeeper in Pawnee Coun ty southeast of Gage County Since I had searched the Gage County marriage records myself for his sons and hadnt found one for Claus I came home from the Archives and sent off a letter to Pawnee County to asK if Claus and Arne ia were married there By return mail came a c oP y of their marriage 1 icense and certificate IlJith the modest bill of $150 Claus gave his parents as John SIEMS and Mary GETNER

Remember somewhere out there you r elusive record is just waiting for you to figure out its location Keep sleuthing

Remember too that somet imes the information given for such records is wrong The names of Mrs Emel ie REDMER s parents were not completed on the first writing In a I ighter ink th ey are shown as Carl REDMER and Dorothea Z~~KER We have several sources that show REDMER as he r marri ed name including the marriage 1 icense and certificate th emselves where we find MMrs written in by hand

My own mother-in-Jaws death certificate has he r father g iven incorrectly Her bereaved husband gave her mothers fathers name Frances FINN instead of Harvey FISHER although he gave her mother Grace C FINN correctly He knew his in-laws personally but was probably tired and confused at the time and misunderstood the question

Guide to the Soundex System The Soundex filing system alphabetic for the first letter of

surname and numeric thereunder as indicated by divider cards keeps together names of the same and similar sounds but of variant spellings

To search for a par~icular name you must first work out the code number for the surname of the individual No number is asigned to the first Jetter of the surname If the name is Kuhne for example the index card will be in the K segment cil the index The code number for Kuhne worked out according to the system below is 500

Soundex Coding Guide Code Key Letters and Equivalents

1 b p f V

2 cskgjqxz 3 d t 4 1 5 mn 6 r

The letters a e i 0 u y w and h are not coded The first letter of a surname is not codd Every Soundex number must be a3-digit number A

name yielding no code numbers as Lee would thus be L 000 one yielding only on code number would have two zeros added as Kuhne coded as K 500 and one yielding two code numbers would have one zero added as Ebell coded as E 140 Not more than three digits are used so Ebelson would be coded as E 142 not E 1425

When two key leters ~uivalents appear together or one key letter immediately follows or precedes an equivalent the two are coded as one letter by a single number as follows Kelly coded 88 K400

Buerpoundjs coded as B620 ~oyd coded as L300 and Ssbaefer coded as SlGO

If several surnames have the same code the cards for them are arranged alphabetically by given name There are divider cards showing most code numbers but not aiL For instance one divider may be numbered 350 and the next one 400 Between the two divider cards there may be names coded 353 350 360 364 365 and 355 but instead of being in numerical order they are inter-filed alphabetically by given name

Such prefixes to su r names as van Von Di de Ie Di D del a or du are sometimes disregarded in alphabetizing and in coding

SURNAME ADDENDUM

The Surname Addendum is now available for $1 per coPy This booklet was needed to up-date the one our society publ ished several years ago The Addendum contains the surnames of newer members with local ities and t ime periods as well as newly found ancestors of those members included in the original A coPy of the or i g j na 1 is on f i 1 e in our 1 i brary

Reviewed by George Anderson

Three new books are reviewed in this issue of The _ Roots Tracer All are data compilations worth searching by LAGS members All are now on the shelf at our library in the Carnegie Building in Livermore

Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents Volume I August 1986 bullbull Volume II October 1986 Compiled and published by Yates Publishing Company POBox 237 Ozark MO 65721 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 193 pages (VoL I) 245 pages (Vol II) $800 per volume

If you pick up each new issue of The Genealogical Helper and full of hope turn to the index to see if someone else is finally publishing something about your Zutz family you will often find -- Eureka -shyThere it is -- Zutz T021 Turning quickly to page 21 you see a page full of surnames including Zutz in microscopic print Elation tul1S to deflation Now you remember biting on that one every two months

This manic-depressive event is brought to you by the Yates Publishing Company of Ozark Missouri who bought page 21 and surrounding pages for advertising its Family Group Sheet Exchange Yates also publishes Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents the subject of this review

The family group sheet exchange conducted by Yates requires you to send in a family group sheet and a check for $8 in return for which you receive free any and all (up to 40) family group sheets already on file for that surname Yates will also put your pedigree chart into its files without charge and will publicize the names on it

Yates has distilled these two volumes of Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents from its data banks of group sheets and pedigree charts More volumes are apparently on the way We have the first two volumes in our LAGS library In my opinion we also ought to add any future sequels

-241shy

There is no difference in kind between the two books -- evidently the volumes are being released as data entry and reduction proceeds Perhaps each volume contains as much information as the Yates computer can handle at once Here are some statistics Volume I has 8037 marriage records of length 110 bytes each containing full name of bride and groom birth year and place for each marriage year and place and a number keyed to the source document The entire file is printed twice once alphabetically by groom and again alphabetically by bride Source documents (747 in Volume I) are listed twice once by key numer and once alphabetically by author Volume II has somewhat more (10935) marriage records but fewer (513) cited documents

At the end of Volume II is the list of surnames used by Yates in the GH ads again printed in 6-point type Almost 13000 different surnames appear in this list Only one surname (Welhoff) from my ancestry was missing from the 13000 However not one of my ancestors that I know about appears in the marriage lists

There is little chance to assess the accuracy of the data as printed and even less chance to detect errors in the data submitted to Yates I spotted only one obvious data entry error in Volume I but 7 in Volume II A curious pattem in Volume II makes me suspicious of error up to the letter E in the

alphabetical listing by grooms there are roughly the same number of entries derived from group sheets as from pedigree charts while after that almost every one is from pedigrees A computer-wise publisher would insist on an explanation for such non-random behavior

Marriages ofSome American Residents and Guide to Documents is a set of books that all of our members should consult -- it provides a quick and easy index to masses of data

In the spirit of experimental research I decided to put the Yates Family Group Sheet Exchange to the test I have submitted group sheets for my greatshygrandfathers Samuel Black and John Flake and have paid my $16 I will let readers of The Roots Tracer know in a future issue how well the system works

Ancestors We Have Found 1986 Harold Dwain Williams Editor Dale SmathersIndexer Published by the North San Diego County Genealogical Society POBox 581 Carlsbad CA 92008 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 353+viii pages indexed no price given

This book is like our own LAGS Surname Index in purpose but is larger and has some interesting differences in the way it is organized Our book (with supplement) contains 1620 different surnames on 54 pages Ancestors We Have Found contains 3870 different surnames on 361 pages The discrepancy in surnamespage is accounted for by the way the San Diego book is organized it is largely given over to ancestor charts of the sort we have begun printing in The Roots Tracer The full name of each known ancestor of each member of the society is listed with date and place of birth marriage and death if known In contrast our book lists only surnames For each locality associated with that surname we list only one date or range of dates The result is that the San Diego book contains a great deal of information -- including kinship information -- that ours does not It may be that when we have printed enough of our members charts in The Roots Tracer we will want to collect them into a book like Ancestors We Have Found

To test the book from San Diego I searched for a number of names in my family I quickly found that if we ever do publish a book like this wewill need a better index The problem is that many of the ancestor charts are over 10 pages long with 50 namespage but the index refers you only to the members name so you end up scanning through hundreds of names to find the one the index lists The book looks like it has been computerized so it would have been a simple matter to list both the members name and the ancestors number in the index The penalty would have been increasing the size of the index from 30 to perhaps 45 pages

My search finally did produce a hit 1 now have a name in Carlsbad California to correspond with about the Mullikins of Maryland

Are genealogists addicted to word play You might think so to read the titles of genealogy magazines advertised in the most recent issue of The Genealogical Helper I was so intrigued by a few titles that caught my eye that I compUlsively pored over the whole issue writing down example after outrageous example There were at least 33 Most were simply alliterative The Bennington Bunch The Thornton Throng Phillips Family Finder A few were punning Trees Company The Knight Letter One 1 could hardly believe was a rhyme A Crump on Every Stump But my favorite was The ODell Diggins -- I guess if your name is ODell and you get teased often enough about Digger ODell rhe comic undertaker you might as well join in the ftm and name your newsletter after him A fev that I didnt see (I think Ill copyright them) were Rodeau Rooter The Budd Light Bumpp Kin and Kiepcrs Finders

A cl ipping from a FUNKHOUSER familY newsletter included some mind boggl ing facts about the number of ancestors each person has Paul FUNKHOUSER heard the following statement at a graduation program Since everyone must have two parents and since a generation is approximately twenty-five years (the average number of years from the birth of a male until the birth of his first child) then there have been thirty-seven gen~rations since the Normans invaded England in 1066 AD Since that is so then we each have had almost 275 bi 11 ion ancestors (274a77906944) since 1066 AD Since the cur r ent world population is only 4 12 bi 11i ol1 ( 4 422000000) as of 1981 I according to the Readers Digest World Atlas and since most Cultural Geographers and Anthropologists agree that there are more people on the earth now than the tota1 of those lJho 1 i ved before th i s time we must conc 1 ude tha t the present and past total could not exceed 9 bill ion people Since we each have had 30 times as many ancestors during the past 920 years as have ever 1 ived on this earth we can on l y draw one is that each of each other many anyone can find reasoning to be that lAJed all 1 ike

For your next family birthday party or reunion why not ask each relative to bring ten family trivia cards written on unl ined index cards with questions on one s i de answers on the other ProvoKe memor ies of past pets cars vacations celebrations embarrassments special events awards etc New cards can be brought to each family celebration and added to the Hdeck of memories A

This idea could also be appl ied to a family newsletter by putting Questions on one page and answers on another and asking relatives to participate by submitting their own memories I can hardly wait to try this one on my cousins bold iron bed 1 ike my daughter has now R The answer would be What was Grandpa Schanacha sitting on when it was strucK by 1 ightening causing his death

Reviewed by George Anderson

Three new books are reviewed in this issue of The _ Roots Tracer All are data compilations worth searching by LAGS members All are now on the shelf at our library in the Carnegie Building in Livermore

Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents Volume I August 1986 bullbull Volume II October 1986 Compiled and published by Yates Publishing Company POBox 237 Ozark MO 65721 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 193 pages (VoL I) 245 pages (Vol II) $800 per volume

If you pick up each new issue of The Genealogical Helper and full of hope turn to the index to see if someone else is finally publishing something about your Zutz family you will often find -- Eureka -shyThere it is -- Zutz T021 Turning quickly to page 21 you see a page full of surnames including Zutz in microscopic print Elation tul1S to deflation Now you remember biting on that one every two months

This manic-depressive event is brought to you by the Yates Publishing Company of Ozark Missouri who bought page 21 and surrounding pages for advertising its Family Group Sheet Exchange Yates also publishes Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents the subject of this review

The family group sheet exchange conducted by Yates requires you to send in a family group sheet and a check for $8 in return for which you receive free any and all (up to 40) family group sheets already on file for that surname Yates will also put your pedigree chart into its files without charge and will publicize the names on it

Yates has distilled these two volumes of Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents from its data banks of group sheets and pedigree charts More volumes are apparently on the way We have the first two volumes in our LAGS library In my opinion we also ought to add any future sequels

-241shy

There is no difference in kind between the two books -- evidently the volumes are being released as data entry and reduction proceeds Perhaps each volume contains as much information as the Yates computer can handle at once Here are some statistics Volume I has 8037 marriage records of length 110 bytes each containing full name of bride and groom birth year and place for each marriage year and place and a number keyed to the source document The entire file is printed twice once alphabetically by groom and again alphabetically by bride Source documents (747 in Volume I) are listed twice once by key numer and once alphabetically by author Volume II has somewhat more (10935) marriage records but fewer (513) cited documents

At the end of Volume II is the list of surnames used by Yates in the GH ads again printed in 6-point type Almost 13000 different surnames appear in this list Only one surname (Welhoff) from my ancestry was missing from the 13000 However not one of my ancestors that I know about appears in the marriage lists

There is little chance to assess the accuracy of the data as printed and even less chance to detect errors in the data submitted to Yates I spotted only one obvious data entry error in Volume I but 7 in Volume II A curious pattem in Volume II makes me suspicious of error up to the letter E in the

alphabetical listing by grooms there are roughly the same number of entries derived from group sheets as from pedigree charts while after that almost every one is from pedigrees A computer-wise publisher would insist on an explanation for such non-random behavior

Marriages ofSome American Residents and Guide to Documents is a set of books that all of our members should consult -- it provides a quick and easy index to masses of data

In the spirit of experimental research I decided to put the Yates Family Group Sheet Exchange to the test I have submitted group sheets for my greatshygrandfathers Samuel Black and John Flake and have paid my $16 I will let readers of The Roots Tracer know in a future issue how well the system works

This book is like our own LAGS Surname Index in purpose but is larger and has some interesting differences in the way it is organized Our book (with supplement) contains 1620 different surnames on 54 pages Ancestors We Have Found contains 3870 different surnames on 361 pages The discrepancy in surnamespage is accounted for by the way the San Diego book is organized it is largely given over to ancestor charts of the sort we have begun printing in The Roots Tracer The full name of each known ancestor of each member of the society is listed with date and place of birth marriage and death if known In contrast our book lists only surnames For each locality associated with that surname we list only one date or range of dates The result is that the San Diego book contains a great deal of information -- including kinship information -- that ours does not It may be that when we have printed enough of our members charts in The Roots Tracer we will want to collect them into a book like Ancestors We Have Found

To test the book from San Diego I searched for a number of names in my family I quickly found that if we ever do publish a book like this wewill need a better index The problem is that many of the ancestor charts are over 10 pages long with 50 namespage but the index refers you only to the members name so you end up scanning through hundreds of names to find the one the index lists The book looks like it has been computerized so it would have been a simple matter to list both the members name and the ancestors number in the index The penalty would have been increasing the size of the index from 30 to perhaps 45 pages

My search finally did produce a hit 1 now have a name in Carlsbad California to correspond with about the Mullikins of Maryland

Are genealogists addicted to word play You might think so to read the titles of genealogy magazines advertised in the most recent issue of The Genealogical Helper I was so intrigued by a few titles that caught my eye that I compUlsively pored over the whole issue writing down example after outrageous example There were at least 33 Most were simply alliterative The Bennington Bunch The Thornton Throng Phillips Family Finder A few were punning Trees Company The Knight Letter One 1 could hardly believe was a rhyme A Crump on Every Stump But my favorite was The ODell Diggins -- I guess if your name is ODell and you get teased often enough about Digger ODell rhe comic undertaker you might as well join in the ftm and name your newsletter after him A fev that I didnt see (I think Ill copyright them) were Rodeau Rooter The Budd Light Bumpp Kin and Kiepcrs Finders

For your next family birthday party or reunion why not ask each relative to bring ten family trivia cards written on unl ined index cards with questions on one s i de answers on the other ProvoKe memor ies of past pets cars vacations celebrations embarrassments special events awards etc New cards can be brought to each family celebration and added to the Hdeck of memories A

This idea could also be appl ied to a family newsletter by putting Questions on one page and answers on another and asking relatives to participate by submitting their own memories I can hardly wait to try this one on my cousins bold iron bed 1 ike my daughter has now R The answer would be What was Grandpa Schanacha sitting on when it was strucK by 1 ightening causing his death

Reviewed by George Anderson

Three new books are reviewed in this issue of The _ Roots Tracer All are data compilations worth searching by LAGS members All are now on the shelf at our library in the Carnegie Building in Livermore

Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents Volume I August 1986 bullbull Volume II October 1986 Compiled and published by Yates Publishing Company POBox 237 Ozark MO 65721 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 193 pages (VoL I) 245 pages (Vol II) $800 per volume

If you pick up each new issue of The Genealogical Helper and full of hope turn to the index to see if someone else is finally publishing something about your Zutz family you will often find -- Eureka -shyThere it is -- Zutz T021 Turning quickly to page 21 you see a page full of surnames including Zutz in microscopic print Elation tul1S to deflation Now you remember biting on that one every two months

This manic-depressive event is brought to you by the Yates Publishing Company of Ozark Missouri who bought page 21 and surrounding pages for advertising its Family Group Sheet Exchange Yates also publishes Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents the subject of this review

The family group sheet exchange conducted by Yates requires you to send in a family group sheet and a check for $8 in return for which you receive free any and all (up to 40) family group sheets already on file for that surname Yates will also put your pedigree chart into its files without charge and will publicize the names on it

Yates has distilled these two volumes of Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents from its data banks of group sheets and pedigree charts More volumes are apparently on the way We have the first two volumes in our LAGS library In my opinion we also ought to add any future sequels

-241shy

There is no difference in kind between the two books -- evidently the volumes are being released as data entry and reduction proceeds Perhaps each volume contains as much information as the Yates computer can handle at once Here are some statistics Volume I has 8037 marriage records of length 110 bytes each containing full name of bride and groom birth year and place for each marriage year and place and a number keyed to the source document The entire file is printed twice once alphabetically by groom and again alphabetically by bride Source documents (747 in Volume I) are listed twice once by key numer and once alphabetically by author Volume II has somewhat more (10935) marriage records but fewer (513) cited documents

At the end of Volume II is the list of surnames used by Yates in the GH ads again printed in 6-point type Almost 13000 different surnames appear in this list Only one surname (Welhoff) from my ancestry was missing from the 13000 However not one of my ancestors that I know about appears in the marriage lists

There is little chance to assess the accuracy of the data as printed and even less chance to detect errors in the data submitted to Yates I spotted only one obvious data entry error in Volume I but 7 in Volume II A curious pattem in Volume II makes me suspicious of error up to the letter E in the

alphabetical listing by grooms there are roughly the same number of entries derived from group sheets as from pedigree charts while after that almost every one is from pedigrees A computer-wise publisher would insist on an explanation for such non-random behavior

Marriages ofSome American Residents and Guide to Documents is a set of books that all of our members should consult -- it provides a quick and easy index to masses of data

In the spirit of experimental research I decided to put the Yates Family Group Sheet Exchange to the test I have submitted group sheets for my greatshygrandfathers Samuel Black and John Flake and have paid my $16 I will let readers of The Roots Tracer know in a future issue how well the system works

Ancestors We Have Found 1986 Harold Dwain Williams Editor Dale SmathersIndexer Published by the North San Diego County Genealogical Society POBox 581 Carlsbad CA 92008 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 353+viii pages indexed no price given

This book is like our own LAGS Surname Index in purpose but is larger and has some interesting differences in the way it is organized Our book (with supplement) contains 1620 different surnames on 54 pages Ancestors We Have Found contains 3870 different surnames on 361 pages The discrepancy in surnamespage is accounted for by the way the San Diego book is organized it is largely given over to ancestor charts of the sort we have begun printing in The Roots Tracer The full name of each known ancestor of each member of the society is listed with date and place of birth marriage and death if known In contrast our book lists only surnames For each locality associated with that surname we list only one date or range of dates The result is that the San Diego book contains a great deal of information -- including kinship information -- that ours does not It may be that when we have printed enough of our members charts in The Roots Tracer we will want to collect them into a book like Ancestors We Have Found

To test the book from San Diego I searched for a number of names in my family I quickly found that if we ever do publish a book like this wewill need a better index The problem is that many of the ancestor charts are over 10 pages long with 50 namespage but the index refers you only to the members name so you end up scanning through hundreds of names to find the one the index lists The book looks like it has been computerized so it would have been a simple matter to list both the members name and the ancestors number in the index The penalty would have been increasing the size of the index from 30 to perhaps 45 pages

My search finally did produce a hit 1 now have a name in Carlsbad California to correspond with about the Mullikins of Maryland

Are genealogists addicted to word play You might think so to read the titles of genealogy magazines advertised in the most recent issue of The Genealogical Helper I was so intrigued by a few titles that caught my eye that I compUlsively pored over the whole issue writing down example after outrageous example There were at least 33 Most were simply alliterative The Bennington Bunch The Thornton Throng Phillips Family Finder A few were punning Trees Company The Knight Letter One 1 could hardly believe was a rhyme A Crump on Every Stump But my favorite was The ODell Diggins -- I guess if your name is ODell and you get teased often enough about Digger ODell rhe comic undertaker you might as well join in the ftm and name your newsletter after him A fev that I didnt see (I think Ill copyright them) were Rodeau Rooter The Budd Light Bumpp Kin and Kiepcrs Finders

For your next family birthday party or reunion why not ask each relative to bring ten family trivia cards written on unl ined index cards with questions on one s i de answers on the other ProvoKe memor ies of past pets cars vacations celebrations embarrassments special events awards etc New cards can be brought to each family celebration and added to the Hdeck of memories A

This idea could also be appl ied to a family newsletter by putting Questions on one page and answers on another and asking relatives to participate by submitting their own memories I can hardly wait to try this one on my cousins bold iron bed 1 ike my daughter has now R The answer would be What was Grandpa Schanacha sitting on when it was strucK by 1 ightening causing his death

Reviewed by George Anderson

Three new books are reviewed in this issue of The _ Roots Tracer All are data compilations worth searching by LAGS members All are now on the shelf at our library in the Carnegie Building in Livermore

Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents Volume I August 1986 bullbull Volume II October 1986 Compiled and published by Yates Publishing Company POBox 237 Ozark MO 65721 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 193 pages (VoL I) 245 pages (Vol II) $800 per volume

If you pick up each new issue of The Genealogical Helper and full of hope turn to the index to see if someone else is finally publishing something about your Zutz family you will often find -- Eureka -shyThere it is -- Zutz T021 Turning quickly to page 21 you see a page full of surnames including Zutz in microscopic print Elation tul1S to deflation Now you remember biting on that one every two months

This manic-depressive event is brought to you by the Yates Publishing Company of Ozark Missouri who bought page 21 and surrounding pages for advertising its Family Group Sheet Exchange Yates also publishes Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents the subject of this review

The family group sheet exchange conducted by Yates requires you to send in a family group sheet and a check for $8 in return for which you receive free any and all (up to 40) family group sheets already on file for that surname Yates will also put your pedigree chart into its files without charge and will publicize the names on it

Yates has distilled these two volumes of Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents from its data banks of group sheets and pedigree charts More volumes are apparently on the way We have the first two volumes in our LAGS library In my opinion we also ought to add any future sequels

-241shy

There is no difference in kind between the two books -- evidently the volumes are being released as data entry and reduction proceeds Perhaps each volume contains as much information as the Yates computer can handle at once Here are some statistics Volume I has 8037 marriage records of length 110 bytes each containing full name of bride and groom birth year and place for each marriage year and place and a number keyed to the source document The entire file is printed twice once alphabetically by groom and again alphabetically by bride Source documents (747 in Volume I) are listed twice once by key numer and once alphabetically by author Volume II has somewhat more (10935) marriage records but fewer (513) cited documents

At the end of Volume II is the list of surnames used by Yates in the GH ads again printed in 6-point type Almost 13000 different surnames appear in this list Only one surname (Welhoff) from my ancestry was missing from the 13000 However not one of my ancestors that I know about appears in the marriage lists

There is little chance to assess the accuracy of the data as printed and even less chance to detect errors in the data submitted to Yates I spotted only one obvious data entry error in Volume I but 7 in Volume II A curious pattem in Volume II makes me suspicious of error up to the letter E in the

alphabetical listing by grooms there are roughly the same number of entries derived from group sheets as from pedigree charts while after that almost every one is from pedigrees A computer-wise publisher would insist on an explanation for such non-random behavior

Marriages ofSome American Residents and Guide to Documents is a set of books that all of our members should consult -- it provides a quick and easy index to masses of data

In the spirit of experimental research I decided to put the Yates Family Group Sheet Exchange to the test I have submitted group sheets for my greatshygrandfathers Samuel Black and John Flake and have paid my $16 I will let readers of The Roots Tracer know in a future issue how well the system works

Ancestors We Have Found 1986 Harold Dwain Williams Editor Dale SmathersIndexer Published by the North San Diego County Genealogical Society POBox 581 Carlsbad CA 92008 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 353+viii pages indexed no price given

This book is like our own LAGS Surname Index in purpose but is larger and has some interesting differences in the way it is organized Our book (with supplement) contains 1620 different surnames on 54 pages Ancestors We Have Found contains 3870 different surnames on 361 pages The discrepancy in surnamespage is accounted for by the way the San Diego book is organized it is largely given over to ancestor charts of the sort we have begun printing in The Roots Tracer The full name of each known ancestor of each member of the society is listed with date and place of birth marriage and death if known In contrast our book lists only surnames For each locality associated with that surname we list only one date or range of dates The result is that the San Diego book contains a great deal of information -- including kinship information -- that ours does not It may be that when we have printed enough of our members charts in The Roots Tracer we will want to collect them into a book like Ancestors We Have Found

To test the book from San Diego I searched for a number of names in my family I quickly found that if we ever do publish a book like this wewill need a better index The problem is that many of the ancestor charts are over 10 pages long with 50 namespage but the index refers you only to the members name so you end up scanning through hundreds of names to find the one the index lists The book looks like it has been computerized so it would have been a simple matter to list both the members name and the ancestors number in the index The penalty would have been increasing the size of the index from 30 to perhaps 45 pages

My search finally did produce a hit 1 now have a name in Carlsbad California to correspond with about the Mullikins of Maryland

Are genealogists addicted to word play You might think so to read the titles of genealogy magazines advertised in the most recent issue of The Genealogical Helper I was so intrigued by a few titles that caught my eye that I compUlsively pored over the whole issue writing down example after outrageous example There were at least 33 Most were simply alliterative The Bennington Bunch The Thornton Throng Phillips Family Finder A few were punning Trees Company The Knight Letter One 1 could hardly believe was a rhyme A Crump on Every Stump But my favorite was The ODell Diggins -- I guess if your name is ODell and you get teased often enough about Digger ODell rhe comic undertaker you might as well join in the ftm and name your newsletter after him A fev that I didnt see (I think Ill copyright them) were Rodeau Rooter The Budd Light Bumpp Kin and Kiepcrs Finders

For your next family birthday party or reunion why not ask each relative to bring ten family trivia cards written on unl ined index cards with questions on one s i de answers on the other ProvoKe memor ies of past pets cars vacations celebrations embarrassments special events awards etc New cards can be brought to each family celebration and added to the Hdeck of memories A

This idea could also be appl ied to a family newsletter by putting Questions on one page and answers on another and asking relatives to participate by submitting their own memories I can hardly wait to try this one on my cousins bold iron bed 1 ike my daughter has now R The answer would be What was Grandpa Schanacha sitting on when it was strucK by 1 ightening causing his death

Reviewed by George Anderson

Three new books are reviewed in this issue of The _ Roots Tracer All are data compilations worth searching by LAGS members All are now on the shelf at our library in the Carnegie Building in Livermore

Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents Volume I August 1986 bullbull Volume II October 1986 Compiled and published by Yates Publishing Company POBox 237 Ozark MO 65721 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 193 pages (VoL I) 245 pages (Vol II) $800 per volume

If you pick up each new issue of The Genealogical Helper and full of hope turn to the index to see if someone else is finally publishing something about your Zutz family you will often find -- Eureka -shyThere it is -- Zutz T021 Turning quickly to page 21 you see a page full of surnames including Zutz in microscopic print Elation tul1S to deflation Now you remember biting on that one every two months

This manic-depressive event is brought to you by the Yates Publishing Company of Ozark Missouri who bought page 21 and surrounding pages for advertising its Family Group Sheet Exchange Yates also publishes Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents the subject of this review

The family group sheet exchange conducted by Yates requires you to send in a family group sheet and a check for $8 in return for which you receive free any and all (up to 40) family group sheets already on file for that surname Yates will also put your pedigree chart into its files without charge and will publicize the names on it

Yates has distilled these two volumes of Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents from its data banks of group sheets and pedigree charts More volumes are apparently on the way We have the first two volumes in our LAGS library In my opinion we also ought to add any future sequels

-241shy

There is no difference in kind between the two books -- evidently the volumes are being released as data entry and reduction proceeds Perhaps each volume contains as much information as the Yates computer can handle at once Here are some statistics Volume I has 8037 marriage records of length 110 bytes each containing full name of bride and groom birth year and place for each marriage year and place and a number keyed to the source document The entire file is printed twice once alphabetically by groom and again alphabetically by bride Source documents (747 in Volume I) are listed twice once by key numer and once alphabetically by author Volume II has somewhat more (10935) marriage records but fewer (513) cited documents

At the end of Volume II is the list of surnames used by Yates in the GH ads again printed in 6-point type Almost 13000 different surnames appear in this list Only one surname (Welhoff) from my ancestry was missing from the 13000 However not one of my ancestors that I know about appears in the marriage lists

There is little chance to assess the accuracy of the data as printed and even less chance to detect errors in the data submitted to Yates I spotted only one obvious data entry error in Volume I but 7 in Volume II A curious pattem in Volume II makes me suspicious of error up to the letter E in the

alphabetical listing by grooms there are roughly the same number of entries derived from group sheets as from pedigree charts while after that almost every one is from pedigrees A computer-wise publisher would insist on an explanation for such non-random behavior

Marriages ofSome American Residents and Guide to Documents is a set of books that all of our members should consult -- it provides a quick and easy index to masses of data

In the spirit of experimental research I decided to put the Yates Family Group Sheet Exchange to the test I have submitted group sheets for my greatshygrandfathers Samuel Black and John Flake and have paid my $16 I will let readers of The Roots Tracer know in a future issue how well the system works

Ancestors We Have Found 1986 Harold Dwain Williams Editor Dale SmathersIndexer Published by the North San Diego County Genealogical Society POBox 581 Carlsbad CA 92008 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 353+viii pages indexed no price given

This book is like our own LAGS Surname Index in purpose but is larger and has some interesting differences in the way it is organized Our book (with supplement) contains 1620 different surnames on 54 pages Ancestors We Have Found contains 3870 different surnames on 361 pages The discrepancy in surnamespage is accounted for by the way the San Diego book is organized it is largely given over to ancestor charts of the sort we have begun printing in The Roots Tracer The full name of each known ancestor of each member of the society is listed with date and place of birth marriage and death if known In contrast our book lists only surnames For each locality associated with that surname we list only one date or range of dates The result is that the San Diego book contains a great deal of information -- including kinship information -- that ours does not It may be that when we have printed enough of our members charts in The Roots Tracer we will want to collect them into a book like Ancestors We Have Found

To test the book from San Diego I searched for a number of names in my family I quickly found that if we ever do publish a book like this wewill need a better index The problem is that many of the ancestor charts are over 10 pages long with 50 namespage but the index refers you only to the members name so you end up scanning through hundreds of names to find the one the index lists The book looks like it has been computerized so it would have been a simple matter to list both the members name and the ancestors number in the index The penalty would have been increasing the size of the index from 30 to perhaps 45 pages

My search finally did produce a hit 1 now have a name in Carlsbad California to correspond with about the Mullikins of Maryland

Are genealogists addicted to word play You might think so to read the titles of genealogy magazines advertised in the most recent issue of The Genealogical Helper I was so intrigued by a few titles that caught my eye that I compUlsively pored over the whole issue writing down example after outrageous example There were at least 33 Most were simply alliterative The Bennington Bunch The Thornton Throng Phillips Family Finder A few were punning Trees Company The Knight Letter One 1 could hardly believe was a rhyme A Crump on Every Stump But my favorite was The ODell Diggins -- I guess if your name is ODell and you get teased often enough about Digger ODell rhe comic undertaker you might as well join in the ftm and name your newsletter after him A fev that I didnt see (I think Ill copyright them) were Rodeau Rooter The Budd Light Bumpp Kin and Kiepcrs Finders

A cl ipping from a FUNKHOUSER familY newsletter included some mind boggl ing facts about the number of ancestors each person has Paul FUNKHOUSER heard the following statement at a graduation program Since everyone must have two parents and since a generation is approximately twenty-five years (the average number of years from the birth of a male until the birth of his first child) then there have been thirty-seven gen~rations since the Normans invaded England in 1066 AD Since that is so then we each have had almost 275 bi 11 ion ancestors (274a77906944) since 1066 AD Since the cur r ent world population is only 4 12 bi 11i ol1 ( 4 422000000) as of 1981 I according to the Readers Digest World Atlas and since most Cultural Geographers and Anthropologists agree that there are more people on the earth now than the tota1 of those lJho 1 i ved before th i s time we must conc 1 ude tha t the present and past total could not exceed 9 bill ion people Since we each have had 30 times as many ancestors during the past 920 years as have ever 1 ived on this earth we can on l y draw one is that each of each other many anyone can find reasoning to be that lAJed all 1 ike

For your next family birthday party or reunion why not ask each relative to bring ten family trivia cards written on unl ined index cards with questions on one s i de answers on the other ProvoKe memor ies of past pets cars vacations celebrations embarrassments special events awards etc New cards can be brought to each family celebration and added to the Hdeck of memories A

This idea could also be appl ied to a family newsletter by putting Questions on one page and answers on another and asking relatives to participate by submitting their own memories I can hardly wait to try this one on my cousins bold iron bed 1 ike my daughter has now R The answer would be What was Grandpa Schanacha sitting on when it was strucK by 1 ightening causing his death

Reviewed by George Anderson

Three new books are reviewed in this issue of The _ Roots Tracer All are data compilations worth searching by LAGS members All are now on the shelf at our library in the Carnegie Building in Livermore

Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents Volume I August 1986 bullbull Volume II October 1986 Compiled and published by Yates Publishing Company POBox 237 Ozark MO 65721 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 193 pages (VoL I) 245 pages (Vol II) $800 per volume

If you pick up each new issue of The Genealogical Helper and full of hope turn to the index to see if someone else is finally publishing something about your Zutz family you will often find -- Eureka -shyThere it is -- Zutz T021 Turning quickly to page 21 you see a page full of surnames including Zutz in microscopic print Elation tul1S to deflation Now you remember biting on that one every two months

This manic-depressive event is brought to you by the Yates Publishing Company of Ozark Missouri who bought page 21 and surrounding pages for advertising its Family Group Sheet Exchange Yates also publishes Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents the subject of this review

The family group sheet exchange conducted by Yates requires you to send in a family group sheet and a check for $8 in return for which you receive free any and all (up to 40) family group sheets already on file for that surname Yates will also put your pedigree chart into its files without charge and will publicize the names on it

Yates has distilled these two volumes of Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents from its data banks of group sheets and pedigree charts More volumes are apparently on the way We have the first two volumes in our LAGS library In my opinion we also ought to add any future sequels

-241shy

There is no difference in kind between the two books -- evidently the volumes are being released as data entry and reduction proceeds Perhaps each volume contains as much information as the Yates computer can handle at once Here are some statistics Volume I has 8037 marriage records of length 110 bytes each containing full name of bride and groom birth year and place for each marriage year and place and a number keyed to the source document The entire file is printed twice once alphabetically by groom and again alphabetically by bride Source documents (747 in Volume I) are listed twice once by key numer and once alphabetically by author Volume II has somewhat more (10935) marriage records but fewer (513) cited documents

At the end of Volume II is the list of surnames used by Yates in the GH ads again printed in 6-point type Almost 13000 different surnames appear in this list Only one surname (Welhoff) from my ancestry was missing from the 13000 However not one of my ancestors that I know about appears in the marriage lists

There is little chance to assess the accuracy of the data as printed and even less chance to detect errors in the data submitted to Yates I spotted only one obvious data entry error in Volume I but 7 in Volume II A curious pattem in Volume II makes me suspicious of error up to the letter E in the

alphabetical listing by grooms there are roughly the same number of entries derived from group sheets as from pedigree charts while after that almost every one is from pedigrees A computer-wise publisher would insist on an explanation for such non-random behavior

Marriages ofSome American Residents and Guide to Documents is a set of books that all of our members should consult -- it provides a quick and easy index to masses of data

In the spirit of experimental research I decided to put the Yates Family Group Sheet Exchange to the test I have submitted group sheets for my greatshygrandfathers Samuel Black and John Flake and have paid my $16 I will let readers of The Roots Tracer know in a future issue how well the system works

Ancestors We Have Found 1986 Harold Dwain Williams Editor Dale SmathersIndexer Published by the North San Diego County Genealogical Society POBox 581 Carlsbad CA 92008 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 353+viii pages indexed no price given

This book is like our own LAGS Surname Index in purpose but is larger and has some interesting differences in the way it is organized Our book (with supplement) contains 1620 different surnames on 54 pages Ancestors We Have Found contains 3870 different surnames on 361 pages The discrepancy in surnamespage is accounted for by the way the San Diego book is organized it is largely given over to ancestor charts of the sort we have begun printing in The Roots Tracer The full name of each known ancestor of each member of the society is listed with date and place of birth marriage and death if known In contrast our book lists only surnames For each locality associated with that surname we list only one date or range of dates The result is that the San Diego book contains a great deal of information -- including kinship information -- that ours does not It may be that when we have printed enough of our members charts in The Roots Tracer we will want to collect them into a book like Ancestors We Have Found

To test the book from San Diego I searched for a number of names in my family I quickly found that if we ever do publish a book like this wewill need a better index The problem is that many of the ancestor charts are over 10 pages long with 50 namespage but the index refers you only to the members name so you end up scanning through hundreds of names to find the one the index lists The book looks like it has been computerized so it would have been a simple matter to list both the members name and the ancestors number in the index The penalty would have been increasing the size of the index from 30 to perhaps 45 pages

My search finally did produce a hit 1 now have a name in Carlsbad California to correspond with about the Mullikins of Maryland

Are genealogists addicted to word play You might think so to read the titles of genealogy magazines advertised in the most recent issue of The Genealogical Helper I was so intrigued by a few titles that caught my eye that I compUlsively pored over the whole issue writing down example after outrageous example There were at least 33 Most were simply alliterative The Bennington Bunch The Thornton Throng Phillips Family Finder A few were punning Trees Company The Knight Letter One 1 could hardly believe was a rhyme A Crump on Every Stump But my favorite was The ODell Diggins -- I guess if your name is ODell and you get teased often enough about Digger ODell rhe comic undertaker you might as well join in the ftm and name your newsletter after him A fev that I didnt see (I think Ill copyright them) were Rodeau Rooter The Budd Light Bumpp Kin and Kiepcrs Finders

For your next family birthday party or reunion why not ask each relative to bring ten family trivia cards written on unl ined index cards with questions on one s i de answers on the other ProvoKe memor ies of past pets cars vacations celebrations embarrassments special events awards etc New cards can be brought to each family celebration and added to the Hdeck of memories A

This idea could also be appl ied to a family newsletter by putting Questions on one page and answers on another and asking relatives to participate by submitting their own memories I can hardly wait to try this one on my cousins bold iron bed 1 ike my daughter has now R The answer would be What was Grandpa Schanacha sitting on when it was strucK by 1 ightening causing his death

Reviewed by George Anderson

Three new books are reviewed in this issue of The _ Roots Tracer All are data compilations worth searching by LAGS members All are now on the shelf at our library in the Carnegie Building in Livermore

Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents Volume I August 1986 bullbull Volume II October 1986 Compiled and published by Yates Publishing Company POBox 237 Ozark MO 65721 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 193 pages (VoL I) 245 pages (Vol II) $800 per volume

If you pick up each new issue of The Genealogical Helper and full of hope turn to the index to see if someone else is finally publishing something about your Zutz family you will often find -- Eureka -shyThere it is -- Zutz T021 Turning quickly to page 21 you see a page full of surnames including Zutz in microscopic print Elation tul1S to deflation Now you remember biting on that one every two months

This manic-depressive event is brought to you by the Yates Publishing Company of Ozark Missouri who bought page 21 and surrounding pages for advertising its Family Group Sheet Exchange Yates also publishes Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents the subject of this review

The family group sheet exchange conducted by Yates requires you to send in a family group sheet and a check for $8 in return for which you receive free any and all (up to 40) family group sheets already on file for that surname Yates will also put your pedigree chart into its files without charge and will publicize the names on it

Yates has distilled these two volumes of Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents from its data banks of group sheets and pedigree charts More volumes are apparently on the way We have the first two volumes in our LAGS library In my opinion we also ought to add any future sequels

-241shy

There is no difference in kind between the two books -- evidently the volumes are being released as data entry and reduction proceeds Perhaps each volume contains as much information as the Yates computer can handle at once Here are some statistics Volume I has 8037 marriage records of length 110 bytes each containing full name of bride and groom birth year and place for each marriage year and place and a number keyed to the source document The entire file is printed twice once alphabetically by groom and again alphabetically by bride Source documents (747 in Volume I) are listed twice once by key numer and once alphabetically by author Volume II has somewhat more (10935) marriage records but fewer (513) cited documents

At the end of Volume II is the list of surnames used by Yates in the GH ads again printed in 6-point type Almost 13000 different surnames appear in this list Only one surname (Welhoff) from my ancestry was missing from the 13000 However not one of my ancestors that I know about appears in the marriage lists

There is little chance to assess the accuracy of the data as printed and even less chance to detect errors in the data submitted to Yates I spotted only one obvious data entry error in Volume I but 7 in Volume II A curious pattem in Volume II makes me suspicious of error up to the letter E in the

alphabetical listing by grooms there are roughly the same number of entries derived from group sheets as from pedigree charts while after that almost every one is from pedigrees A computer-wise publisher would insist on an explanation for such non-random behavior

Marriages ofSome American Residents and Guide to Documents is a set of books that all of our members should consult -- it provides a quick and easy index to masses of data

In the spirit of experimental research I decided to put the Yates Family Group Sheet Exchange to the test I have submitted group sheets for my greatshygrandfathers Samuel Black and John Flake and have paid my $16 I will let readers of The Roots Tracer know in a future issue how well the system works

Ancestors We Have Found 1986 Harold Dwain Williams Editor Dale SmathersIndexer Published by the North San Diego County Genealogical Society POBox 581 Carlsbad CA 92008 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 353+viii pages indexed no price given

This book is like our own LAGS Surname Index in purpose but is larger and has some interesting differences in the way it is organized Our book (with supplement) contains 1620 different surnames on 54 pages Ancestors We Have Found contains 3870 different surnames on 361 pages The discrepancy in surnamespage is accounted for by the way the San Diego book is organized it is largely given over to ancestor charts of the sort we have begun printing in The Roots Tracer The full name of each known ancestor of each member of the society is listed with date and place of birth marriage and death if known In contrast our book lists only surnames For each locality associated with that surname we list only one date or range of dates The result is that the San Diego book contains a great deal of information -- including kinship information -- that ours does not It may be that when we have printed enough of our members charts in The Roots Tracer we will want to collect them into a book like Ancestors We Have Found

To test the book from San Diego I searched for a number of names in my family I quickly found that if we ever do publish a book like this wewill need a better index The problem is that many of the ancestor charts are over 10 pages long with 50 namespage but the index refers you only to the members name so you end up scanning through hundreds of names to find the one the index lists The book looks like it has been computerized so it would have been a simple matter to list both the members name and the ancestors number in the index The penalty would have been increasing the size of the index from 30 to perhaps 45 pages

My search finally did produce a hit 1 now have a name in Carlsbad California to correspond with about the Mullikins of Maryland

Are genealogists addicted to word play You might think so to read the titles of genealogy magazines advertised in the most recent issue of The Genealogical Helper I was so intrigued by a few titles that caught my eye that I compUlsively pored over the whole issue writing down example after outrageous example There were at least 33 Most were simply alliterative The Bennington Bunch The Thornton Throng Phillips Family Finder A few were punning Trees Company The Knight Letter One 1 could hardly believe was a rhyme A Crump on Every Stump But my favorite was The ODell Diggins -- I guess if your name is ODell and you get teased often enough about Digger ODell rhe comic undertaker you might as well join in the ftm and name your newsletter after him A fev that I didnt see (I think Ill copyright them) were Rodeau Rooter The Budd Light Bumpp Kin and Kiepcrs Finders

This idea could also be appl ied to a family newsletter by putting Questions on one page and answers on another and asking relatives to participate by submitting their own memories I can hardly wait to try this one on my cousins bold iron bed 1 ike my daughter has now R The answer would be What was Grandpa Schanacha sitting on when it was strucK by 1 ightening causing his death

Reviewed by George Anderson

Three new books are reviewed in this issue of The _ Roots Tracer All are data compilations worth searching by LAGS members All are now on the shelf at our library in the Carnegie Building in Livermore

Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents Volume I August 1986 bullbull Volume II October 1986 Compiled and published by Yates Publishing Company POBox 237 Ozark MO 65721 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 193 pages (VoL I) 245 pages (Vol II) $800 per volume

If you pick up each new issue of The Genealogical Helper and full of hope turn to the index to see if someone else is finally publishing something about your Zutz family you will often find -- Eureka -shyThere it is -- Zutz T021 Turning quickly to page 21 you see a page full of surnames including Zutz in microscopic print Elation tul1S to deflation Now you remember biting on that one every two months

This manic-depressive event is brought to you by the Yates Publishing Company of Ozark Missouri who bought page 21 and surrounding pages for advertising its Family Group Sheet Exchange Yates also publishes Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents the subject of this review

The family group sheet exchange conducted by Yates requires you to send in a family group sheet and a check for $8 in return for which you receive free any and all (up to 40) family group sheets already on file for that surname Yates will also put your pedigree chart into its files without charge and will publicize the names on it

Yates has distilled these two volumes of Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents from its data banks of group sheets and pedigree charts More volumes are apparently on the way We have the first two volumes in our LAGS library In my opinion we also ought to add any future sequels

-241shy

There is no difference in kind between the two books -- evidently the volumes are being released as data entry and reduction proceeds Perhaps each volume contains as much information as the Yates computer can handle at once Here are some statistics Volume I has 8037 marriage records of length 110 bytes each containing full name of bride and groom birth year and place for each marriage year and place and a number keyed to the source document The entire file is printed twice once alphabetically by groom and again alphabetically by bride Source documents (747 in Volume I) are listed twice once by key numer and once alphabetically by author Volume II has somewhat more (10935) marriage records but fewer (513) cited documents

At the end of Volume II is the list of surnames used by Yates in the GH ads again printed in 6-point type Almost 13000 different surnames appear in this list Only one surname (Welhoff) from my ancestry was missing from the 13000 However not one of my ancestors that I know about appears in the marriage lists

There is little chance to assess the accuracy of the data as printed and even less chance to detect errors in the data submitted to Yates I spotted only one obvious data entry error in Volume I but 7 in Volume II A curious pattem in Volume II makes me suspicious of error up to the letter E in the

alphabetical listing by grooms there are roughly the same number of entries derived from group sheets as from pedigree charts while after that almost every one is from pedigrees A computer-wise publisher would insist on an explanation for such non-random behavior

Marriages ofSome American Residents and Guide to Documents is a set of books that all of our members should consult -- it provides a quick and easy index to masses of data

In the spirit of experimental research I decided to put the Yates Family Group Sheet Exchange to the test I have submitted group sheets for my greatshygrandfathers Samuel Black and John Flake and have paid my $16 I will let readers of The Roots Tracer know in a future issue how well the system works

Ancestors We Have Found 1986 Harold Dwain Williams Editor Dale SmathersIndexer Published by the North San Diego County Genealogical Society POBox 581 Carlsbad CA 92008 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 353+viii pages indexed no price given

This book is like our own LAGS Surname Index in purpose but is larger and has some interesting differences in the way it is organized Our book (with supplement) contains 1620 different surnames on 54 pages Ancestors We Have Found contains 3870 different surnames on 361 pages The discrepancy in surnamespage is accounted for by the way the San Diego book is organized it is largely given over to ancestor charts of the sort we have begun printing in The Roots Tracer The full name of each known ancestor of each member of the society is listed with date and place of birth marriage and death if known In contrast our book lists only surnames For each locality associated with that surname we list only one date or range of dates The result is that the San Diego book contains a great deal of information -- including kinship information -- that ours does not It may be that when we have printed enough of our members charts in The Roots Tracer we will want to collect them into a book like Ancestors We Have Found

To test the book from San Diego I searched for a number of names in my family I quickly found that if we ever do publish a book like this wewill need a better index The problem is that many of the ancestor charts are over 10 pages long with 50 namespage but the index refers you only to the members name so you end up scanning through hundreds of names to find the one the index lists The book looks like it has been computerized so it would have been a simple matter to list both the members name and the ancestors number in the index The penalty would have been increasing the size of the index from 30 to perhaps 45 pages

My search finally did produce a hit 1 now have a name in Carlsbad California to correspond with about the Mullikins of Maryland

Are genealogists addicted to word play You might think so to read the titles of genealogy magazines advertised in the most recent issue of The Genealogical Helper I was so intrigued by a few titles that caught my eye that I compUlsively pored over the whole issue writing down example after outrageous example There were at least 33 Most were simply alliterative The Bennington Bunch The Thornton Throng Phillips Family Finder A few were punning Trees Company The Knight Letter One 1 could hardly believe was a rhyme A Crump on Every Stump But my favorite was The ODell Diggins -- I guess if your name is ODell and you get teased often enough about Digger ODell rhe comic undertaker you might as well join in the ftm and name your newsletter after him A fev that I didnt see (I think Ill copyright them) were Rodeau Rooter The Budd Light Bumpp Kin and Kiepcrs Finders

Reviewed by George Anderson

Three new books are reviewed in this issue of The _ Roots Tracer All are data compilations worth searching by LAGS members All are now on the shelf at our library in the Carnegie Building in Livermore

Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents Volume I August 1986 bullbull Volume II October 1986 Compiled and published by Yates Publishing Company POBox 237 Ozark MO 65721 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 193 pages (VoL I) 245 pages (Vol II) $800 per volume

If you pick up each new issue of The Genealogical Helper and full of hope turn to the index to see if someone else is finally publishing something about your Zutz family you will often find -- Eureka -shyThere it is -- Zutz T021 Turning quickly to page 21 you see a page full of surnames including Zutz in microscopic print Elation tul1S to deflation Now you remember biting on that one every two months

This manic-depressive event is brought to you by the Yates Publishing Company of Ozark Missouri who bought page 21 and surrounding pages for advertising its Family Group Sheet Exchange Yates also publishes Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents the subject of this review

The family group sheet exchange conducted by Yates requires you to send in a family group sheet and a check for $8 in return for which you receive free any and all (up to 40) family group sheets already on file for that surname Yates will also put your pedigree chart into its files without charge and will publicize the names on it

Yates has distilled these two volumes of Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents from its data banks of group sheets and pedigree charts More volumes are apparently on the way We have the first two volumes in our LAGS library In my opinion we also ought to add any future sequels

-241shy

There is no difference in kind between the two books -- evidently the volumes are being released as data entry and reduction proceeds Perhaps each volume contains as much information as the Yates computer can handle at once Here are some statistics Volume I has 8037 marriage records of length 110 bytes each containing full name of bride and groom birth year and place for each marriage year and place and a number keyed to the source document The entire file is printed twice once alphabetically by groom and again alphabetically by bride Source documents (747 in Volume I) are listed twice once by key numer and once alphabetically by author Volume II has somewhat more (10935) marriage records but fewer (513) cited documents

At the end of Volume II is the list of surnames used by Yates in the GH ads again printed in 6-point type Almost 13000 different surnames appear in this list Only one surname (Welhoff) from my ancestry was missing from the 13000 However not one of my ancestors that I know about appears in the marriage lists

There is little chance to assess the accuracy of the data as printed and even less chance to detect errors in the data submitted to Yates I spotted only one obvious data entry error in Volume I but 7 in Volume II A curious pattem in Volume II makes me suspicious of error up to the letter E in the

alphabetical listing by grooms there are roughly the same number of entries derived from group sheets as from pedigree charts while after that almost every one is from pedigrees A computer-wise publisher would insist on an explanation for such non-random behavior

Marriages ofSome American Residents and Guide to Documents is a set of books that all of our members should consult -- it provides a quick and easy index to masses of data

In the spirit of experimental research I decided to put the Yates Family Group Sheet Exchange to the test I have submitted group sheets for my greatshygrandfathers Samuel Black and John Flake and have paid my $16 I will let readers of The Roots Tracer know in a future issue how well the system works

Ancestors We Have Found 1986 Harold Dwain Williams Editor Dale SmathersIndexer Published by the North San Diego County Genealogical Society POBox 581 Carlsbad CA 92008 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 353+viii pages indexed no price given

This book is like our own LAGS Surname Index in purpose but is larger and has some interesting differences in the way it is organized Our book (with supplement) contains 1620 different surnames on 54 pages Ancestors We Have Found contains 3870 different surnames on 361 pages The discrepancy in surnamespage is accounted for by the way the San Diego book is organized it is largely given over to ancestor charts of the sort we have begun printing in The Roots Tracer The full name of each known ancestor of each member of the society is listed with date and place of birth marriage and death if known In contrast our book lists only surnames For each locality associated with that surname we list only one date or range of dates The result is that the San Diego book contains a great deal of information -- including kinship information -- that ours does not It may be that when we have printed enough of our members charts in The Roots Tracer we will want to collect them into a book like Ancestors We Have Found

To test the book from San Diego I searched for a number of names in my family I quickly found that if we ever do publish a book like this wewill need a better index The problem is that many of the ancestor charts are over 10 pages long with 50 namespage but the index refers you only to the members name so you end up scanning through hundreds of names to find the one the index lists The book looks like it has been computerized so it would have been a simple matter to list both the members name and the ancestors number in the index The penalty would have been increasing the size of the index from 30 to perhaps 45 pages

My search finally did produce a hit 1 now have a name in Carlsbad California to correspond with about the Mullikins of Maryland

Three new books are reviewed in this issue of The _ Roots Tracer All are data compilations worth searching by LAGS members All are now on the shelf at our library in the Carnegie Building in Livermore

Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents Volume I August 1986 bullbull Volume II October 1986 Compiled and published by Yates Publishing Company POBox 237 Ozark MO 65721 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 193 pages (VoL I) 245 pages (Vol II) $800 per volume

If you pick up each new issue of The Genealogical Helper and full of hope turn to the index to see if someone else is finally publishing something about your Zutz family you will often find -- Eureka -shyThere it is -- Zutz T021 Turning quickly to page 21 you see a page full of surnames including Zutz in microscopic print Elation tul1S to deflation Now you remember biting on that one every two months

This manic-depressive event is brought to you by the Yates Publishing Company of Ozark Missouri who bought page 21 and surrounding pages for advertising its Family Group Sheet Exchange Yates also publishes Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents the subject of this review

The family group sheet exchange conducted by Yates requires you to send in a family group sheet and a check for $8 in return for which you receive free any and all (up to 40) family group sheets already on file for that surname Yates will also put your pedigree chart into its files without charge and will publicize the names on it

Yates has distilled these two volumes of Marriages of Some American Residents and Guide to Documents from its data banks of group sheets and pedigree charts More volumes are apparently on the way We have the first two volumes in our LAGS library In my opinion we also ought to add any future sequels

-241shy

There is no difference in kind between the two books -- evidently the volumes are being released as data entry and reduction proceeds Perhaps each volume contains as much information as the Yates computer can handle at once Here are some statistics Volume I has 8037 marriage records of length 110 bytes each containing full name of bride and groom birth year and place for each marriage year and place and a number keyed to the source document The entire file is printed twice once alphabetically by groom and again alphabetically by bride Source documents (747 in Volume I) are listed twice once by key numer and once alphabetically by author Volume II has somewhat more (10935) marriage records but fewer (513) cited documents

At the end of Volume II is the list of surnames used by Yates in the GH ads again printed in 6-point type Almost 13000 different surnames appear in this list Only one surname (Welhoff) from my ancestry was missing from the 13000 However not one of my ancestors that I know about appears in the marriage lists

There is little chance to assess the accuracy of the data as printed and even less chance to detect errors in the data submitted to Yates I spotted only one obvious data entry error in Volume I but 7 in Volume II A curious pattem in Volume II makes me suspicious of error up to the letter E in the

alphabetical listing by grooms there are roughly the same number of entries derived from group sheets as from pedigree charts while after that almost every one is from pedigrees A computer-wise publisher would insist on an explanation for such non-random behavior

Marriages ofSome American Residents and Guide to Documents is a set of books that all of our members should consult -- it provides a quick and easy index to masses of data

In the spirit of experimental research I decided to put the Yates Family Group Sheet Exchange to the test I have submitted group sheets for my greatshygrandfathers Samuel Black and John Flake and have paid my $16 I will let readers of The Roots Tracer know in a future issue how well the system works

Ancestors We Have Found 1986 Harold Dwain Williams Editor Dale SmathersIndexer Published by the North San Diego County Genealogical Society POBox 581 Carlsbad CA 92008 Soft cover 8 112 x 11 inches 353+viii pages indexed no price given

This book is like our own LAGS Surname Index in purpose but is larger and has some interesting differences in the way it is organized Our book (with supplement) contains 1620 different surnames on 54 pages Ancestors We Have Found contains 3870 different surnames on 361 pages The discrepancy in surnamespage is accounted for by the way the San Diego book is organized it is largely given over to ancestor charts of the sort we have begun printing in The Roots Tracer The full name of each known ancestor of each member of the society is listed with date and place of birth marriage and death if known In contrast our book lists only surnames For each locality associated with that surname we list only one date or range of dates The result is that the San Diego book contains a great deal of information -- including kinship information -- that ours does not It may be that when we have printed enough of our members charts in The Roots Tracer we will want to collect them into a book like Ancestors We Have Found

To test the book from San Diego I searched for a number of names in my family I quickly found that if we ever do publish a book like this wewill need a better index The problem is that many of the ancestor charts are over 10 pages long with 50 namespage but the index refers you only to the members name so you end up scanning through hundreds of names to find the one the index lists The book looks like it has been computerized so it would have been a simple matter to list both the members name and the ancestors number in the index The penalty would have been increasing the size of the index from 30 to perhaps 45 pages

My search finally did produce a hit 1 now have a name in Carlsbad California to correspond with about the Mullikins of Maryland

This book is like our own LAGS Surname Index in purpose but is larger and has some interesting differences in the way it is organized Our book (with supplement) contains 1620 different surnames on 54 pages Ancestors We Have Found contains 3870 different surnames on 361 pages The discrepancy in surnamespage is accounted for by the way the San Diego book is organized it is largely given over to ancestor charts of the sort we have begun printing in The Roots Tracer The full name of each known ancestor of each member of the society is listed with date and place of birth marriage and death if known In contrast our book lists only surnames For each locality associated with that surname we list only one date or range of dates The result is that the San Diego book contains a great deal of information -- including kinship information -- that ours does not It may be that when we have printed enough of our members charts in The Roots Tracer we will want to collect them into a book like Ancestors We Have Found

To test the book from San Diego I searched for a number of names in my family I quickly found that if we ever do publish a book like this wewill need a better index The problem is that many of the ancestor charts are over 10 pages long with 50 namespage but the index refers you only to the members name so you end up scanning through hundreds of names to find the one the index lists The book looks like it has been computerized so it would have been a simple matter to list both the members name and the ancestors number in the index The penalty would have been increasing the size of the index from 30 to perhaps 45 pages

My search finally did produce a hit 1 now have a name in Carlsbad California to correspond with about the Mullikins of Maryland

Are genealogists addicted to word play You might think so to read the titles of genealogy magazines advertised in the most recent issue of The Genealogical Helper I was so intrigued by a few titles that caught my eye that I compUlsively pored over the whole issue writing down example after outrageous example There were at least 33 Most were simply alliterative The Bennington Bunch The Thornton Throng Phillips Family Finder A few were punning Trees Company The Knight Letter One 1 could hardly believe was a rhyme A Crump on Every Stump But my favorite was The ODell Diggins -- I guess if your name is ODell and you get teased often enough about Digger ODell rhe comic undertaker you might as well join in the ftm and name your newsletter after him A fev that I didnt see (I think Ill copyright them) were Rodeau Rooter The Budd Light Bumpp Kin and Kiepcrs Finders
