Thanks David, This genealogy stuff to me is kinda like growing (30's and 40's) up on my parent’s farm in the MS delta. It takes a bit of weeding now and then before you get to the heart of the matter. Ever think about taking over the Attala's site again? At times it appears to be on life support. Doug

Doug, The search problem you described with Ancestry has been a problem with them for several years. They provide expanded searches where you may enter last name, first name, place and year of birth, age , etc. When you enter all that info they still dump many, many names on you because they don't even use many of the parameters included in the expanded search. Guess they don't want to admit they didn't find what you were searching for and list all the unwanted results to convince you they are trying. I won't subscribe to them again until they correct some of their serious problems.

You might fwd this msg to the friends you are trying to get hooked into Attala County rock turning. Doug Class Now in Session at Family Tree University The following announcement was written by F+W Media, Inc.: Genealogists who want to improve their research skills—and make family history progress in the process—will find guidance on the new virtual “campus” of Family Tree University. This genealogy education website, located at http://www.familytreeuniversity.com, features courses designed to help students learn about genealogy topics on a flexible schedule. Each course lasts four weeks, and students can log in any time of day or night during their course session to complete lessons and interact with instructors. “Our goal is to make the experience convenient and enjoyable,” says Family Tree University publisher and editorial director Allison Stacy. “Students can interact with instructors and other students. The lessons are dynamic—some even include video. It’s not just reading a textbook.” The first session of courses will begin in early May. In the meantime, students can try out Family Tree University through a special preview class offered at a discounted rate. Registration is now open for Google Tools for Genealogists, taught by Lisa Louise Cooke, which starts April 26.

Do you have any ancient business ancestors in or from Attala County? Details of 19th-Century Businesses Now on Ancestry.com Writing in the Ancestry.com blog, Heather Erickson describes the newest offerings on the giant online service. If your ancestors owned a business between 1850 and 1880, you’ll now be able to learn the details of their company, or even their farm, in the Non-Population Census Schedules, 1850-1880 that are now online. This unique collection of agriculture, industry/manufacturers, and social statistics contains the names and details of more than 4 million people and businesses from the late 1800s. Included in the industry/manufacturing schedules are the company name, a description of the type of business, amount of capital invested, the quantity and value of resources used, the quantity of yearly production, and the number of individuals hired. Erickson then goes on to give several examples of companies in the 1800s, including Folgers Coffee, Bausch & Lomb, Tiffany & Co., and Harper's. I tried the searches but found nothing about any of my ancestors In fact, the search didn't seem to work properly. The search allows the user to specify the town and state in which the business was located. However, the results seemed to ignore the locations. I specified a search for an ancestor who lived in the small town of Corinth, Maine and yet the system returned all sorts of results for men of the same last name in New York. I didn't see a single listing for anyone in Maine. I specified a search for men named Washington Eastman (my great-great-grandfather) but the not one record for any man of that name was returned. Instead, Ancestry.com displayed lots of records for people with a first name of Charles, Catherine, Cyrus, Daniel, and all sorts of other first names but there was not a single Washington in the group. I have to wonder why I even entered that name as a search term. I'd say that Ancestry.com's latest offering shows a lot of promise but it needs some refinement before it becomes useful. When I specify a search for a particular name in a certain town, I would expect to see matching results for that name and that town and nothing else. Sadly, I saw everything but what I had specified. The last names were correct, but the first names and the locations were wrong 100% of the time when I searched the Non-Population Census Schedules this evening. I tried searching for records in several different states, but Ancestry.com always displayed New York records and apparently ignored the first names that I had entered. Non-Population Census Schedules reportedly are available for California, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Nebraska, New York, North Carolina, South Carolina, Texas, Virginia and Washington.

Ever wonder where all those years of delete Attala County family research and other research stuff files went to? Unless you have a Window Washer, Cyber Scrub or something similar, its still accumulating on your laptop or pc "C" drive(s). Here is a simple procedure to rid your computer(s) of 'em....... 1. Right click My Computer 2. Click Explore 3. Right click your probably C: drive 4. Click Properties 5. Click Disk Cleanup 6.Make a decision to clean up. By doing this, your computer's speed should kick up a notch or 2.

There are excellent on-line programs (Legacy.com) that are very reasonable, guests are welcome to add whatever they want plus photos etc. They offer a one year listing or for a small additional fee a listing in perpetuity. I have used this program, Legacy.com and I found it much more satisfactory than the expensive newspaper.

Geneticist Inherits A Mystery: His Own Genealogy Nobel Prize-winning geneticist Sir Paul Nurse recently applied for a Green Card to work in the United States. He had no reason to suspect that he would be deemed an undesirable. He had not only lived in America for three years, but he is also president of Rockefeller University New York – a powerhouse of American research. When his application was turned down by the Department of Homeland Security, he assumed that it was nothing more than a bureaucratic blip. He was wrong. The problem was that the details on Sir Paul's birth certificate did not carry the names of his parents. He applied for a fuller version of the birth certificate from Britain's General Register Office. He was not prepared for what was returned. "The name of my mother given on the certificate was the name of the person I thought was my sister and the space for my father's name was just a dash. No father," said Sir Paul. There was no escaping the irony: here was one of the country's most eminent geneticists and he couldn't even be sure of his own genetic identity. His parents were his grandparents, and they had brought him up as their own. Could it have been to protect their daughter, his "sister", from some scandal? His "parents" now became his grandparents, brothers became uncles, nephews and nieces became half-brothers and sisters. "I am not a bad geneticist," he says, "and my own family managed to keep my genetic secrets for over half a century."

Hello folks - just want to inform everyone about the recent up-date to my Buford website. www.bufordfamilies.com In addition to my regular pages that you all might be familiar with I have added a new category. It is entitled "OLD NEWS" and has ten(10) sub titles. This has been a ton of fun for me and a great way of researching my family. As I researched my Buford family I have also included some of my collateral families. I believe everyone might find something of interest to read as there is a lot of history to be found in the old newspapers available in local libraries and on micro-film. Hard on the eyes but if you are a history buff like I am, it is well worth the time and eye strain. My up-date covers over a hundred new pages. I hope you all find something interesting. If you have questions you may contact me at: rumycuzn@bresnan.net My sincere apologies if you receive duplicate emails regarding my update - remember your 'delete' key. Thanks and God Bless - Fern K. Buford Walker www.bufordfamilies.com

Genealogical Writing: Donating Your Genealogy by Michael J. Leclerc Authors of compiled family histories often ask me where they should give a copy of their work. Some people ask this in the belief that there is only one place they should place their book. Many of those are surprised when I start talking with them, as a number of places come to mind immediately. The first place is the Library of Congress. The Local History and Genealogy Reading Room at LOC has more than 50,000 compiled genealogies and more than 100,000 local histories. If you register your book with the Copyright Office, you are required to submit two copies of your work within three months of publication. One of those copies will be given to the Local History and Genealogy Reading Room. If you choose not to register, you can still donate a copy at any time. You can find more information about donating to LOC at www.loc.gov/rr/genealogy/gifts.html. You should also donate a copy of your book to major genealogical libraries. I recommend at least three. The first, as you have probably guessed, is the New England Historic Genealogical Society. With more than 30,000 published genealogies, NEHGS has one of the premier collections in the country. Visit www.NewEnglandAncestors.org for more information about the library and making donations. The Allen County Public Library in Fort Wayne, Indiana, is also a leading repository for genealogical research. Between print, microtext, and manuscripts, there are more than 50,000 volumes of compiled genealogies at the library. The ACPL also publishes the Periodical Source Index for genealogical magazines and journals. You can find more information at www.acpl.lib.in.us. And of course, the biggest genealogical library in the world is the Family History Library in Salt Lake City. The FHL has an active program of collecting compiled genealogies for families from around the world. They do have stringent requirements for donations, which you can read in the Library section of www.FamilySearch.org. Each state in the U.S. also has a state library and state historical society. Consider donating copies to the libraries and historical societies for the states covered in your compilation. The same could be said for local and county libraries and historical societies for locations featured in your work. And remember to include state, county, and local genealogical societies as well. The more places you place your book, the more likely it is that a copy will be found by descendants in the future. And when somebody finds a copy of your book at the library, they may contact you to purchase a copy for themselves. That’s a win-win.

Hi Doug, My Madison County, MS Mitchell's originated, we think, from NC, then [definitely] into Bedford Co., TN before settling Madison Co. MS. They married McDaniel's from Attala and Turner from TN. You're probably familiar with Curtis McDaniel's work on the Attala & Madison County McDaniel's. You mentioned Turner from Attala and NC. My ggggrandfather James H. Mitchell c1810 TN - c1878-80 Madison Co MS married c1833 Susannah Turner c1817 TN - 1868 Madison Co. MS. They lived in Madison Co. from c1833-35 until their deaths. I've always wondered if Susannah had clan members living nearby in Madison  & Attala counties. Do you have much on your Turner's? Thanks!

Cummins" <doug_36c@yahoo.com> To: msattala@rootsweb.com Sent: Friday, April 9, 2010 9:32:50 AM GMT -06:00 US/Canada Central Subject: [MSATTALA] Censuses My ggg grandparents (Cummins, Guess, McDaniel and Turner) were from NC and migrated/settled in Attala County. This is encouraging.....  

It is always smart to have documentation before presenting something as a fact. During my early research days back in the mid 90's I got a verbal (written) smack a few times from some on this list for "not having proof". Submitted trees and family group sheets to Ancestry/ Rootsweb/ Familysearch and many other places are submitted by people not documented officially. So it is good to verify and get actual copies of records if possible. I say all of the above for a reason. For those who would like to further genealogy and have some spare time on their hands the LDS (Mormon) Church has a census transcription project under way. I volunteer for it and do a little along as I can. You download software, then census page, transcribe, then send back. http://indexing.familysearch.org/newuser/nuhome.jsf Below is a list that people just like you and I have completed, are working on now, and have to complete in the future.... Worldwide Indexing Projects Current Projects U.S., 1920 Federal CensusU.S., Indiana MarriagesU.K., Cheshire Parish RecordsCanada, British Columbia MarriagesMexico, 1930 Federal CensusSee more Completed Projects U.S., 1900 Federal CensusU.S., Texas DeathsU.S., Ohio DeathsIreland, Civil RegistrationsArgentina, 1895 Federal CensusAnd more Future Projects England, Bristol, Parish RegistersEngland, Essex, Parish RegistersU.S., 1910 Federal CensusU.S., New York MarriagesU.S., Tennessee County MarriagesAnd more Even if this isn't your "cup of tea" the site is a wonderful source for submitted family group sheets, personal contacts, historical books, death certificates, birth information, and census records. You may ask what is in it for me? I know that the information will be there for someone who needs it and in turn if they transcribe perhaps I will locate that elusive ancestor or a descendant of them and break down a brick wall.
