Genealogy always uses a woman's maiden name.

Rootsweb and the usual places still have the death records online. For the birth records, you're looking for something like ca-vitalrec or vitalrec-ca.com. There's definently a "ca" and a dash attached to vitalrec.

My gggGrandparents were Isaac Perry, b. abt. 1770 in Vermont; d. 1845 in Lenox, Berkshire Co., Massachusetts and Betsy Galloway, b. 1795 in Natic, MA or Newfane, VT. Isaac was married twice; the first marriage was to Sally Balcous. All I have is the combined children, not really knowing who belongs to Betsy and who belongs to Sally. Here is what I have as their children- does someone recognize this family?- 1.) Sally Perry, b. 21 Jun 1795 2.) Lyman Perry, b. 25 Arp 1797 3.) Arthusa Perry, b. 10 Aug 1799 4.)

Julia Perry, b. 14 Nov 1811 8.) Mary Perry, b. 27 Mar 1814 9.) Titus Ellis Perry; b. 15 Apr 1817, in Massachusetts; married Phebe Maria Jadwin on 04 Jul 1836, in New Lebanon Springs, NY; d. 14 Jul 1890. (My ggGrandparents.) I really only know more detail on Titus and Phebe's descendents; I would like to know more about any of these descendents of Isaac and Betsy (Galloway) Perry. Flanagan Purchase

When I lived in California in the seventies I had my last name "legally" changed to reflect both my maiden and married name with a hyphen in between as the *entire* surname. All I had to do was change all of my important documents to reflect this new name and to start using this new name consistently. I did not go to a lawyer- I just "read up" on it. As an addendum for those who want to "connect" their married and maiden name: I found in the long run that this was not worth it! Some people were highly offended that I did this so that when I went to a new insurance agent, for example, the man took it as a personal offense to HIM! He was furious at my name! When I tried to sign up to teach a college class, a woman in Administration refused to believe that I could do this and would only write my last name down as ONE name- so "pick which one." My brother did the same thing and he has a child who is abhorred that her last name is so "funny." When she is of age, I am certain that she will change her name back to my brother's suname! And what if she didn't? When she married, her last name would be Smith-Jones-Farrell (sort of like an attorney's office!) And what if she married a man whose parents had the same idea? So the newlyweds last name would be: Smith-Jones-Garcia-Farrell!!

but..... you could benefit ( and make your own decision) based on others experiences.. I use the following method to stored scanned images on my hard disk.. You might use the same for paper stuff in REAL folders.. Family tree data + +-----"birth family name", ( "married family name") , "Given name" eg Yellow, (Blue) Emily for Emily born a "Yellow" and married into the "Blue" family. If Emily married again, then it might look like....

I had an experience with the female first name "Amy" occurring in one Census as "Emma." "Emma" could be the "proper" name and "Amy" the abbreviated name or Emma could just be a name that was "mis-heard" by the Census taker. Flanagan

I have uncovered some addresses (from birth & wedding certificates) that refer to house names in a location. Here are a couple: Garon Villa Penrhiwceiber (Wales - 1901) and 14 Walcot Villas Stratton St Margaret (Wiltshire - 1933) Finding the towns/villages hasn't been a problem - find the houses (or where they may have been) is... Does anyone have knowledge of a resource or resources that may keep a record of such things? =================================== Graham Walter Genealogical research looking for: DAVIS / ROWLAND / JAMES Abercarn, Wales JUKES / BRADLEY - Dorchester, England web: www.walter-family.org ===================================

Free opinion, worth twice what you paid for it: Assuming you've no horrendous typos -- The child born in 1795 cannot POSSIBLY belong to the wife born 1795. Nor can any child born before her 10th birthday (i.e., 1805). The last four, maybe five, are the only ones I'd even tentatively assign, but more likely the 2nd wife produced no offspring, and was a widower marries his housekeeper sort of thing.

Yes, this is the simplest. For one thing, if you file it under the maiden name, sooner or later you're going to stumble across it while you're looking for something else and say "what's this doing in here?" and move it. (g) If you file it under the married name, then sooner or later, you're going to be collating all the papers for the P!tty-P4t family and the one who married the QT family is going to be missing, and you'll have to go on a hunt for her. And on the third hand, a piece of paper takes up x-onehundredths of an inch, no matter what's on it, so you may as well file a copy as a cross-reference.

I'll say an amen to that. I've become a great fan of making multiple copies and filing them under every possible catagory. If you're dealing with some kind of certified record, you'll want to note which is the original and which are copies. --

I think that'd be entirely up to you - who else would care?

If I'm filing papers according to surname, would it make more sense to file a document for a married woman under her married name or maiden name??? I'm leaning towards the married name because that's the one that the document has on it, but then she's in my genealogy program with her maiden name (although the married name is quickly discernible).

I have many ancestors in my family with the middle name of "Ellis." My question is: I am sure that there was an original person in the family whose LAST name was Ellis. Does anybody agree? In case it would help, the first such ancestor I have with with this name is Titus Ellis Perry, born in 1817 in Massachusettes; his father was Isaac Perry, b. in Vermont and his mother was Betsy Galloway. Titus and his brothers and sisters were to move around the country so that Titus died in West Holman twp, Osceola Co., Iowa. Titus had a son called George Ellis Perry. Titus' daughter, Jane Maria Perry, was to marry Wallace Spencer and they had a son called Austin Ellis Spencer. They also had a son called George Albert Spencer who with his wife had a son called George Ellis Spencer, my grandfather And on and on it goes with the Ellises!! (Was the original Ellis probably someone of repute?) Thanks for any insight! Sincerley, Flanagan

Can anyone tell me where to find passenger lists for people departing US ports, IE NY and others, from 1900-1915? Robert Jerin

There is another site to view these records. If you go to vitalrec.com, I think that is the site. I go to google and put in california birth index and it comes up first in the results. It takes a minute to get to the right page, but still allows searches.
