Hi list, Does anyone one have access to Narratives of Early Maryland, 1633-1684, ed. C. C. Hall (New York, 1910), p. 315. Would you please do a lookup for me in regard to "Marcus the Finn"? Thank you so very much! :) Happy hunting, Helen

In Marriage Licenses 0f Caroline County, Maryland, 17774-1815, I found an entry for the marriage of Isaac Baggs and Elizabeth Clark on January 31, 1786. There are also listed: James Baggs to Nancy Mason Oct 15, 1779 Solomon Scott to Elizabeth Baggs Nov. 1, 1781 William Mason to Nancy Baggs Jan 3, 1785 James Hardcastle to Eliazabeth Baggs Jun 20, 1787 Philemon Spencer to Nancy Baggs Jun 13, 1797 Richard Swift to Minty Baggs Nov 5, 1803 Hope this helps you. Maybe you can do me a favor and look around in your sources in Maryland for the marriage of James Hughes and Nancy Willoughby about 1790. She died in 1814 and he married a Margaret Satterfield in Aug of 1814 which is recorded in this book of Caroline Co. Marriages. Jim Hughes

Hi Karen, Yes, I do agree with you that the Denton Library version of "the Newspaper Archive" is very slow to load and now takes you to the first page of the paper in question (this is only a recent problem, I'd say in the last month or so) and not to the page the query is actually on. This does cause me frustration to say the least. Having read these papers at the Library on micro-film for too many years for me to be comfortable with (and I'm not all that old), I would know that most of the "important" information would be found on "page 5" on almost every Denton Journal from the 1880s to the 1930s. Concerning the search engine for the two sites. I have hard copies of two of my wife's great grandparents who died in 1925 and 1931 that do not appear in either of the search engines. Both died in Caroline Co., and their death were reported in The Denton Journal, which is where I found them on the micro-film at the Library. I just now tried in once again from The Newspaper Archive site and it still doesn't show. I can understand why people not living in the area would rather have this service but for my self give me the micro-film any day, that is if it isn't so scratched up that you can't possibly read it, but that's another story.

Parker Dear Parker, Your note about using the Caroline Library system to access the Denton Journal was interesting. It may be easier to get into the Denton paper via the library, but I thought you might be interested in an experiment I conducted to compare the two search engines. I went into both systems. I got into the library system faster, but after I completed the search for Alfred B. Carter in each and got a list of matches, I found that the newspaperarchive.com system brought up the full page images faster (Both produced the thumbnail sketches quickly). More important, I discovered that although both systems give you a "thumbnail sketch" of the name you want when you click on one of the matches listed, the systems performed quite differently when you tried to switch from the thumbnail sketch to the full page view. The library system took me to the front page of the newspaper for every match and I had to use the navigation option (found my right clicking on the mouse when I had the curser placed on the article) to get to the page in the newspaper which had n article about Alfred B. Carter. In contrast, the newspaperarchive.com system took me right to the page where the article was found. Furthermore, it highlighted the name I was searching for in yellow so that it was easy to find on the page. The library system did not highlight the name and, therefore, in addition to having to navigate through the paper page by page, I had to read all of each page until I came to the article. A BIG waste of time!! Finally, the library search engine produced a list of 7 matches for Alfred B. Carter while the newspaperarchive.com system produced 18. All of the library matches were included in the newspaperarchive.com list. I looked at all 18 from newspaperarchive.com and found Alfred B. Carter on every one of the pages on the list of matches found by the search engine. Only because I had looked up the articles on newspaperarchive.com, was I able to find the seven matches fairly quickly in the Caroline County library system -- I was able to find the matches in the library's system faster because I already knew the title of the article, and if the newspaper had printed page numbers on the page, I knew the page number from looking at the article in the newspaperarchive.com system prior to looking for it in the Caroline County library system. Incidentally, in case you want to go page by page in newspaperarchive.com, they have the same exact navigation system and you can right click on your mouse to get to it and move through the paper page by page. Result: Based on this one test, I would certainly choose to use the newspaperarchive.com system over the libary system. It moved faster, took me to the exact page, highlighted the name I searched for, and will still let me navigate page by page instead of making me navigate page by page. Just thought you might be interested if you had not done a matched comparison of the two systems! Karen Minneapolis, MN

I have no difficulty using the system except for occasional spells when the system goes down. Have you downloaded the viewing program? I don't think that would affect the problem you are having, but it wouldn't hurt to check. Are you limiting your search to the Denton paper? You have to go into advanced search to do this. First, log on. If the message comes back that you are logged on, then click on advanced next to the search space. Then fill in the family name to find every mention of your family name in the paper, or fill in the given and family name of a particular person you want to find. Then move down the list of options under advanced search and change the second block to search for exact name. Then move on down past years options (which I have not used since I want everyone!) and order of results (which doesn't work well for me because even if you tell it you want most recent first or oldest first, you will still get the results in order of the most hits). Then move to the newspaper selection -- fast way to get to Denton paper: type in D and hit the down arrow four times and then hit return. Then move to the section where you can tell the search engine how many matches you want to list on a page. I leave it at 10 to start with, but if I get a zillion matches, sometimes, I make it list higher numbers so it is easier to get to the article I last read (because I won't have to use the next page button at the bottom of the list of matches so many times!!). I also have not had difficulty getting technical help. I have left messages a couple of times. But, it will be a day or two before you get an answer if you do get through. I wish we actually lived near to each other so that I could just come over to your house and show you how it works! By the way, if you get any items in your list of matches that have a picture of a closed lock next to it, you are looking at articles which are not from the Denton paper. Rather, it is from a paper that is part of the paid subscription. Also, I wonder if the fact that the website sends an ad to become a paid member almost every time you ask to look at the full page picture of the page that has your family name in it is tricking you. If you are able to get to the thumbnail sketch and think you are being denied access because that ad pops up, then all you have to do is click on the X in the upper right hand corner of the ad and you will be able to see the page that is loading up. (Sometimes that takes a while if you are using your phone line to connect to the web and don't have DSL -- we have our connection through the cable company which is very fast, but we still have a little wait for the newspaper page to finally appear. It takes a long time to load up photograph type stuff -- which is actually what you are looking at when you see the newspaper page -- a photograph (microfilmed probably) of the page. At first, when I used this page, I thought I was not getting in when I simply was not waiting long enough for the computer to finish loading the image. That was when I had a dial-up phone connection. It is much better now that I have AoL cable connection. But if you are still on a dial-up line that is slow, just make sure you have some other stuff you can do between pulling up images! Like writing checks to pay bills!! Or the chance to play yet one more game of solitaire or mine field to further the process of driving you insane!) I hope this helps.

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: KEALY KEALEY Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/iEB.2ACE/659 Message Board Post: I am looking for information about the last years of Thomas Kealy or Kealey, who died in or near Federalsburg in 1879. Thomas was born in 1809 in NY. In the 1830s he farmed in Cayuga County, and from about 1837 to 1858 he lived in Lenawee Co., MI, where he traded land and had a milling business. In 1858 he relocated to Denton Co., TX, where he and a brother were large landholders and ran another mill. In 1872 his wife Henrietta died, and probably in the mid-1870s he moved back east to NJ or MD. He may have remarried, so there may be a widow Kealy in Caroline County in 1880. Thomas was on the road a lot during his life. In 1849/1850, before he moved to TX, he appears to have been a leader of a California expedition that started from Council Bluffs IA. After the Civil War he participated in one of the Texas conventions devoted to creating a new constitution for the readmitted state, and he served in the state legislature representing Denton County. Any help would be appreciated.
