Has everyone heard that Ancestry is closing down the Rootsweb mailing lists in March? Is the admin of this list going to try and migrate the group somewhere else? We have started a new Idaho Genealogy message board/mailing list at "Groups.io" ( https://groups.io/g/IdahoGenealogy ) We want to place links to any county groups or specialized Idaho lists or groups on the home page. Of Course, anyone interested in Idaho genealogy is encouraged to join this new group I hope to hear from you RandyC

I've "rescued" an old family photograph of the Charles GENASCI Family of Nevada City, CA which was taken at the C. Uberto Studio in San Francisco, CA. Family members are named as follows: Front row left to right - Fritz, Charles Jr., William, and Henry GENASCI Back row left to right - Florence, Josephine, Mr. Charles GENASCI, Mary, Annie, Mrs. GENASCI, Fred, and Carrie GENASCI The photograph appears to have been taken in the 1880's and is framed in a traditional frame which appears to date back to that time. Those pictured in the photograph range in age from about 4 years to parents in their 40's. Based on limited research I was able to gather the following information regarding this family: Charles Carlo Ambrogio GENASCI was b. 4 Mar 1831 in Ariolo, Switzerland to parents Carlo Ambrogio GENASCI (1796-1963) and Guisesspa LOMBARDI (1797-1836).

Seek the burial place of John Joseph Thamm, died in Hailey on 7-29-1917, at age 35 years. He may be buried at Hailey Cemetery, where his parents and some siblings are buried, but the cemetery has no record of his burial there. If there is a Catholic section of the Hailey Cemetery, his parents may be buried there but he may not be buried there because he may have left the Catholic Church. Or he may be buried in Mackay, Custer County, Idaho, where he had operated a butcher shop. His wife was Estella (or Stella) Morgan, whom he married in 1905 in Mackay, Idaho; she later married George J. Roessler and died in 1970 at age 84 years at Spokane, WA, where she is buried. John Joseph Thamm was the grandfather of my brother-in-law. Ronald Decker, Chicago

Could have been at the same time, or at separate times. In those days, it would take a long time to get between the two cities. Shoshone used to be a major railroad stop, so a hotel would have been a good business to have had there. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Will check out the McFall Hotel in Shoshone as they had built the International Hotel in Bellevue, and my not knowing anything on Idaho will check and see if this is one and same or two separate enterprises for them.

Surrounding Neighboring Counties "From the northern-tip is Boise, follow by the northwestern side with Custer and Butte, and on the western side is Bingham and Powers, and then on the southeastern side are Elmore, Camas, Lincoln, Minidoka and Cassia." This is actually incorrect.  From the northern-tip is Boise County.  From Boise County, the Counties are northeastern side with Custer and Butte, eastern side is Bingham and Powers, and then south from Boise County on the West side are Elmore andCamas, followed by Lincoln, Minidoka and Cassia on the South Side.   In God We Trust Frank A.

I'm looking for stories, biographies, and photos of women miners of Idaho since the early territorial days to the 20th century. These women could have been prospectors, miners, or just one of the titleholders to any mine claims. If you have a female ancestor(s) who pursued this industry, whether alone or a part of any mining company, then I would love to hear about your ancestor’s experience. I am trying to gather as much information on women miners as a part of my graduate research project. Please contact me at matthew.d.friend@gmail.com. Thank you for your time.
