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).

Frank Navarre is mentioned on the memorial plate at Battle Ground Cemetery near Mackay Reservoir in Custer County. Only mentioned his name and I think his age. I believe he would have been born in 1880, however I was unable to find the Navarre (or the Dewitt (the in-laws)) in that census, even though, he should be, but isn't. If the first son's birth David Martin Navarre is proven to be correct that he was born in Butte County, Idaho, then they should have been there or near there. I need to re-read Martin Dewitt biography as the author mentioned several places they've lived at in Idaho before their final desination of Houston, Idaho. The only reason I believe Stephen D. & Orpha (Ortha) A. (Dewitt) Navarre is that they were the ONLY Navarre in the area at the time. Stephen w/2nd wife was in the Battle Ground, Cassia, Idaho 1900 census and continue to the next census but as under Custer County. I think there was a boundary change with Cassia and Custer. Also, I know that they were in Houston, Idaho is that the only daughter, Kathryn Cora Muriel Navarre was born in 1882 in Houston, according to her death info. So the mother had to have died between 1882 to 1899 but unless I have access to the Messengers in Custer County. I don't know where to look other than the other newspapers that were used or received was the one or two Idaho newspapers which are online and I never found any mention of Navarre or Dewitt in them except in the Wood River Times for about six weeks over some land claim. I need to find the historical society contact info in Custer to see if there's an index of newspapers article on their citizens in the area. I wish they had the older Challis Messenger like the Silver Messenger and Idaho Messenger that were in the area post 1880.

Me again. Since Jesse McCaleb was killed by Indians in 1878 and the other pioneers were buried afterwards, you should be able to check newspapers for a possible mention of death.

There's no birth or death date for Frank Navarre. From the plate it reads his name and Age 4. As for Ortha or Orpha Ann (Dewitt) Navarre. she could've died between 1884-1899.

I'll try those historical society Juv., but I tried reading those books on FamilySearch Books section and they won't open for me. It seems lots of them won't. That's annoying. I'm trying to find the death of Ortha IOrpha) Ann (Dewitt) Navarre. It seems she not buried in any of the Custer County cemeteries? And I'm trying to see if this Frank Navarre (age 4) was her son.

It seems lots of them won't. That's annoying. I'm trying to find the death of Ortha IOrpha) Ann (Dewitt) Navarre. It seems she not buried in any of the Custer County cemeteries? And I'm trying to see if this Frank Navarre (age 4) was her son. Matt Matt On Wed, Feb 22, 2017 at 5:34 PM, juvanne <juvanne@earthlink.net> wrote: > Matt, did you happen to check with the following:?
