Now this is a good Window's tip for those of us in Genealogy who have those names that require special characters. It is also just good to know one more Window trick. Will I ever learn everything about Windows? I hope someone out there finds this as interesting as I did. By the way Lockergnome is a great short little newsletter that I get. It is packed with free down load programs and tips. This is not a plug for them, I am just sharing information with you. http://www.lockergnome.com/ enjoy! Suzanne A few Lockergnomies pointed out that 'extended' character creation functionality is already built-in to Windows, although you'll have to turn it on before you can use it. Open up the 'Keyboard' applet in your Control Panel, select the 'Language' tab, then pull up the Properties for the 'English (United States)' layout. Now, in the drop-down menu, change it from 'United States 101' to 'United States - International.' Now, instead of having to remember the code to make an accented lowercase E, you can type an apostrophe first and then the letter; Windows will transmogrify it for you. ~n will become an 'n' with a tilde over it; "u will become a 'u' with an umlaut mark over it. Special key sequences include: ALT+/ (upside-down question mark), ALT+1 (upside-down exclamation mark), and ALT+c (copyright symbol).

The following was posted by Joan Shepp <[email protected]> on Thu, 25 Nov 1999 on the Humboldt County GenConnect Query Forum: - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Surname: Windler I am looking for connections or descendants to Lütje/Lewis Windler born 18 Dec 1821 in Wörpedorf, Germany. He immigrated in 1838 to Benton County, Missouri and left later for the California Gold Rush. The Record of Heirs lists his residence as Eureka, Humboldt, County, California on 15 March 1873. I found on the internet where a Louis Windler married Mary Ladd on 28 Dec 1869 in Alameda, CA but can't prove this is the same person. Any information would be helpful.

Hi, I'm looking for information on descendants of Nicholsons that went from Prince Edward Island in Canada and settled in Humboldt County in the later 1800's. William Nicholson, b. abt 1850 PEI was married to Margaret A. (?). b. Aug. 1846 in New Brunswick. In the 1880 census they were living in Arcata, Humboldt County. Children were Sarah (b. abt 1879), Annie (b. Nov. 1880), William (b. Sept. 1886) and Wallace (b. Jan. 1888). I have an address list from a Nicholson family reunion held in 1934. From this list I think Sarah is Mrs. Sadie Corbett, Cor. Humboldt & H Sts., Eureka. Annie may be Mrs. Anne Getchell, 3414 K St., Eureka. Wallace Nicholson lived in Bayside. Any information about these individuals would be appreciated. Thank you. Bill Nicholson

Ahlive: Yes, the address is correct. DC's cost $8.00 in California. Death certificates go back to 1853 in some cases. I have index books to deaths, if you would like me to take a look, let me know the name. If you have any trouble, let me know, I live about a half mile from the Humboldt County Vital Statistics office here in Eureka.

Greetings, I've been slowly but surely adding to the Humboldt County website and thought I would give an overview of recent additions and solicit suggestions. The main page is here: http://www.qworld.net/humboldt/index.html I have recently added a page for "Humboldts" all over -- there three Humboldt Counties in the US altogether, and a myriad of Humboldts in general. These are all listed and linked to at: http://www.qworld.net/humboldt/humboldt.html I added a sitemap that lists all of the pieces and parts of the Humboldt County site: http://www.qworld.net/humboldt/sitemap.html I added the Rootsweb SSDI to the website with a page of explanation on using the SSDI in your research: http://www.qworld.net/humboldt/ssdi.html My work in serious progress is Humboldt County Placenames: http://www.qworld.net/humboldt/placenames.html I'm through "E" right now. These pages feature a descriptions, any relevant links, and with the help of Expedia & USGS, maps to the locations. I recently purchased digital topo maps for all of Humboldt County and am hoping to do maps for specific locations such as churches, schools, etc. After living there for 10 years, I'm constantly surprised at what I *don't* know. If anyone has information to contribute, I would be grateful for it. I would also like to feature homepages relevant to Humboldt County researchers, so you if you have one, please send the URL. Also, as the California Census Project Coordinator, there are transcription projects galore that would be of terrific benefit to researchers. If you have old humboldt county history books, biographies, bible records, obits, etc... and have time to transcribe, the entire project would be highly grateful for your contributions. Thanks so much!

If you missed the following from the Rootsweb newsletter I think you might find it interesting. It should be a great tool for everyone if we all post notes giving more identification on the listings that we know are ours - might make some new connections and help others eliminate some names in their searches. Just did a couple of mine and another link is provided once you post a post-em that you can view any posted. POST-EMs. Now you can attach a message to any of the more than 61 million records in the Social Security Death Index (SSDI) at RootsWeb by using a "post-em," developed by RootsWeb's own Randy Winch. Some suggested uses: attach notes to the records of your relatives, providing researchers with a direct link to you; add background information on an individual in the database, such as pointers to other records relating to that individual; or add a correction to an incorrect record. Check the records of individuals of interest to you often. Someone recently might have left a note there for you. To add a note to a record, do a search and click on "Post-em" at the end of a record at: <http://ssdi.genealogy.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/ssdi.cgi>. Post-ems are a another example of your contributions at work.

Recently had an email message about a new website. Looks promising so I thought I would share. New site, Ancestory Gravesite Project, consists of gravesite photos that have been submitted from researchers all over the world. This site is for anyone in any country who is interested in contributing to the project. Includes a search engine. http://www.piedmontsoftware.com/graves/ and a link at the bottom - Leave Your Epitaph On The Message Board which leads to a new screen with a text box and the title Messages from the Grave http://www.piedmontsoftware.com/graves/comments.asp

In July, 1997 NARA established an updated fee schedule for services provided to the public. The minimum mail-order fee for photocopies for each WWI Draft card was increased from $6.00 to $10.00, a fee which includes both sides of the card. Patrons need not request that both sides of the card be copied, and patrons need not submit a self-addressed stamped envelope (SASE) with their request. Walk-in customers can make self-service photocopies of the original records for $0.10 per side. Please contact individual regions for their policies regarding microfilm copies. These fees are copying fees only; there is no charge for searches when a record is not located. **At a minimum, the following information is required from the requestor for NARA staff to conduct a search for draft registration cards: o Full name of registrant o Complete home address at the time of registration (to include county) o Name of nearest relative Additional information, if known, which can improve the thoroughness of a search includes: o Birth date o Birthplace o Occupation of registrant NARA, Southeast Region, has provided a request form for these records for a number of years. The forms can be ordered via e-mail ([email protected]), telephone (404-763-7383), or in writing (NARA, Southeast Region, 1557 St. Joseph Avenue, East Point, GA 30344). JAMES J.
