Although I qualify for one of these certificates, it beats the daylights out of me WHY anyone would want one of these (not actual fighting against Russians, etc) but I am SURE there will be loads of persons who WILL want one of them. If you served in military or civilian capacity between Sep 2, 1945 and Dec 26, 1991 and want to receive your Cold War Recognition Certificate go to this website. (my personal opinion -- just another wasteful expense for the Govt postage-wise, paper and printing-wise, manpower-wise, etc) I personally think money would be better spent putting the government military records ONLINE or at least all the census' <ha,ha -- genealogist in me "rears its beautiful head"> http://coldwar.army.mil Exact info follows my name.

I just received a notice that there's a new publication being published by Heritage Pathways of Fort Wayne. It's entitled _Pre 1882 Indiana Births From Secondary Sources Vol. 1_ (hot dog! maybe there will be more volumes!).... Anywho, it costs $19.95 plus $3.00 shipping if you order before April 15. Send your $$ to Heritage Pathways, Inc, PO Box 13485, Fort Wayne, IN 46869-3485. OR, it says they take MasterCard & Visa (who doesn't?) if you call 219-744-4807. According to the blurb, it contains nearly 10,000 Indiana births that took place prior to 1882. These births were culled from county histories, genealogical periodicals, Civil War pension files, obits, etc... All secondary sources. It's 278 pages with INDEX (hot dog!). I thought some of you may be interested in this publication. I think I'll order a couple for the Library and maybe one for myself personally. Sue Otte p.s. I'm not affiliated with this publication in any way... I just received the flyer on it.

Let's all welcome Joe Markovitch - to the InGenWeb... Joe is the new CC for Marshal and Starke counties... Please make Joe welcome . The new state pages are located at: www.markovich.org/marshall.html www.markovich.org/starke.html I'd like to thank Eric for doing a great job with these counties and I'm happy that he is still an InGenWeb coordinator....

Hello all, My page isn't well advertised but has a LOT on it and I thought maybe someone on the list could benefit from it. A lot of the queries I've seen come on the list could be answered by one of the sites I have listed. I have links to lots of Indiana genealogy and other categories such as: Civil War, Revolution, Pennsylvania, Immigrants, Ship Lists, Old Countries(links to genealogy sites around the world) etc...the list goes on...as well as actual records I have transcribed in various genealogy subjects. Feel free to check the site and any constructive ideas are welcome. Oh and check back again over the next few weeks, I have around another 100 links to add but need to make seperate pages for categories because theyre getting too large :) http://members.tripod.com/~KHuish (KH in capitals) or if you can click in email <A HREF="http://members.tripod.com/~KHuish">Firstmoms Genealogy and Adoption Site</A> Thanks Kathy -CC Lake County IN GenWeb

>From Bowling List: with so many persons of Melungeon ancestry throughout USA thought you might like to know this if you live near or are vacationing near there that time of year: From: Kay Martin <suni@QNI.com> To: BOWLING-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [BOWLING-L] "Melungeon Roots: A Family Heritage Workshop" Berea College, KY Hi Everybody! Some of you on this list may be interested in learning more about a fascinating group of people called Melungeons, especially if your family comes from northeast TN, southeast KY, northwest NC or southwest VA. If you have any questions about the article below, please write to me directly at suni@qni.com. Thanks! -Kay ****** Recent books and documentaries on Appalachia's mysterious Melungeons have led many people to search for their Melungeon roots. A genealogy workshop at Berea College may provide help for those who are seeking information about their families and possible Melungeon connections. "Melungeon Roots: A Family Heritage Workshop" will be held on the Berea College campus on Saturday, June 26. This event will feature sessions on beginning, intermediate, and Internet genealogy, as well as specific sessions to explore Native American and African-American connections. There will also be chat sessions for various family groups, a showing of a documentary film about the Melungeons, and a panel discussion featuring Brent Kennedy, Manuel Mira, and others.. The Melungeons are a multi-racial and multi-ethnic people who were first documented in the Appalachian mountains at the end of the 18th century. Since that time, they have become a part of Appalachian folklore - "sons and daughters of the legend." Prior to the Civil War, some were classified as "free persons of color." More recently, they have been identified by anthropologists and sociologists as "tri-racial isolates" - an amalgam of European, Native American, and African-American ancestry. They faced discrimination, both legal and social, and tended to settle in isolated communities such as Newman's Ridge in Hancock County, Tennessee, or Stone Mountain, Virginia. Over the years, Melungeons kept to themselves -- or moved to other areas where their heritage was not suspect. Oral history among Melungeon families was often not shared with succeeding generations. "Melungeon" had become an epithet, even if no one knew where the word originated. Jean Patterson Bible wrote in 1975 that generations of intermarriage has resulted in near racial dissolution: "They'll be gone in a generation or two, except for an occasional dark-complected [sic] child as a reminder of the past." Instead, many Melungeon descendants are coming to recognize and embrace the diverse heritage that is theirs. They've been encouraged and inspired by Dr. N. Brent Kennedy, author of the 1994 book The Melungeons: The Resurrection of A Proud People; An Untold Story of Ethnic Cleansing in America. Kennedy, in researching his own family background, concludes that the Melungeons were descended from groups of Spaniards, Portuguese, Turks, Berbers, Moors, Jews, and others who arrived on these shores between the arrival of Columbus and the establishment of Jamestown. Generations of intermarriage with Europeans, Native Americans, and African-Americans resulted in the people now known as Melungeons. Participants may pre-register before June 1, for "Melungeon Roots: A Family Heritage Workshop" by sending a check or money order to: Melungeon Roots, P.O. Box 4042, Wise, VA 24293. Admission to the event is $5 for each pre-registered participant (before June 1), and $10 for those who register after June 1 and for on-site registrants. On-site registration begins Friday, June 25, at 7:00 pm at the Alumni Building on the Berea campus. The Melungeon Heritage Association, Inc. will hold a mixer on Friday night at the Alumni Building from 7 to 9 pm. Workshops will begin on Saturday morning at 9:00 am at Phelps-Stokes Hall, with welcoming remarks by Audie Kennedy, president of the Melungeon Heritage Association, Inc., and Gordon McKinney of the Berea College Appalachian Center. Workshops will be held in the Frost Building and Phelps Stokes chapel. Chat groups will be running all day at various locations on campus. Throughout the day, "Melungeon Roots" will feature "how-to" genealogy sessions as well as sessions on Native American, African-American, and Portuguese-American genealogy. A panel discussion with a question-and-answer session will close the workshop. "Melungeon Roots: A Family Heritage Workshop" is sponsored by the Appalachian Center at Berea College, continuing the college's long tradition of commitment to Appalachia and to diversity. The event is organized by the Melungeon Heritage Association, Inc. (MHA), a non-profit organization formed in 1998. MHA was an outgrowth of the highly successful First Union: A Melungeon Gathering held in Wise in 1997. In 1998, MHA sponsored Second Union, an even larger gathering which featured sessions and lectures on history, social issues, and medical issues, as well as genealogy. The gatherings are only a part of the work of MHA. The organization is also dedicated to several other tasks, including continued research and writing, telling the story of the Melungeon people, and contributing to the mosaic of a past that has been hidden too long. At the same time, MHA plans to collect and preserve the research and artifacts of the past, forming the basis of a Melungeon Research Center to give these materials a permanent home. MHA's mission is to document and preserve the heritage and cultural legacy of mixed-ancestry people of the Southern Appalachians. While the focus will be on those of Melungeon heritage, they do not restrict themselves to honoring only this group, but believe in the dignity of all such mixed ancestry groups. MHA is committed to preserving this rich heritage of racial diversity and harmony. MHA plans to hold Third Union in the summer of 2000. In the meantime, "Melungeon Roots" is the first of several planned smaller events which will focus on individual aspects of Melungeon heritage. PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT: MELUNGEON ROOTS "Melungeon Roots: A Family Heritage Workshop" will be held on the Berea College campus in Berea, Kentucky, on Saturday, June 26. This event will feature sessions on beginning, intermediate, and Internet genealogy, as well as specific sessions on other aspects of Melungeon genealogy. To register, send five dollars per registrant to Melungeon Roots, P.O. Box 4042, Wise, VA 24293.
