SGS Computer IG on 7/14/2001 abt National Genealogical Society Meeting For the Computer Interest Group of the Seattle Genealogical Society (SGS) meeting, Dick Anderson will share his personal perspective on the National Genealogical Society (NGS) Meeting held this past May in Portland, OR. He will begin with an overview of the NGS meeting, since the program included much more than just computer topics. He will share important insights on doing Internet research that he gained from several papers presented there. He also attended the Advanced TMG (The Master Genealogist) Workshop and he discovered several interesting computer products at the conference, both of which he will tell us about. Besides discussing computers, he found the topics "solving difficult problems" and "certification of genealogists" worthy to share with us. NOTE OFF-SITE MEETING LOCATION!!! We will meet Saturday, July 14th, from 10:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. at the Broadview branch of the Seattle Public Library, located at 12755 Greenwood Avenue North in Seattle. It is situated on the southwest corner of Greenwood Ave. N. and N. 130th St., just a few blocks west of Aurora Ave. N. On the No. 5 bus line. Auto drivers please park on the street to leave the parking lot for library patrons. This program is not sponsored by the Seattle Public Library System. The Computer Interest Group looks forward to begin meeting at the new SGS Offices located at 6200 Sand Point Way NE as soon as the facility is ready to accommodate a group of our size. We hope that this will be true in time for our August 11th meeting. The SGS Computer Interest Group is the first established computer genealogy group in the US (January 1981) and second in the world (one in Sweden was first).

Heritage Festival & Genealogy Search Invitation The Seattle Genealogical Society and its Computer Interest Group invite you to come to the Heritage Festival and we hope that you will visit our "Genealogy Search" booth. It is located in the Parlor, Library, and Great Room of the Clise Mansion and Museum. The Heritage Festival is from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Saturday, July 7th, and from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Sunday, July 8th, at Marymoor Park, near Redmond, Washington. The Park is located at the north end of Lake Sammamish, and at the intersection of Route 520 and the West Lake Sammamish Parkway NE. Entrance to the Festival is free and there is a $6 parking fee. The King County Parks Department invited SGS members to assist Heritage Festival visitors seek information about their ancestors. Prior to sitting down at a computer, SGS volunteers will assist each visitor as they enter their genealogical information on a pedigree chart or family group sheet. If you already have this information, feel free to bring it with you. This information is used by a Computer Interest Group volunteer to help the visitor search genealogy web sites for information about one of their ancestors. As an alternative to an Internet search, volunteers guide visitors in a search of genealogy CDs for their ancestor's information. We will also have an SGS genealogy information and book sales table. There will be information available about the Black Genealogy Research Group, the Eastside Genealogical Society, and the Daughters of the American Revolution. As a special attraction, Julia Jefferson, descendant of past President Thomas Jefferson and Sally Hemings, his slave, will make a short presentation and answer questions in the Great Room of the Clise Mansion at 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. each day. In addition to our Genealogy Search booth, the Festival will have many exciting activities, music and crafts. There will be a US Civil War reenactment, a baseball game with 1860s rules, and the Interlake Mountain Men and Oregon Trail Travelers will show how pioneers worked, cooked, camped and entertained themselves during the 1800s. Plus, Northwest Coast Indian Tribes will show their crafts, music and dancing. Further, there will be a variety of popular crafts, some being made at the Festival. The music focus this year is on jazz, blues and swing with an array of national and regional headliners. The dance stage will offer over 30 groups presenting dances from around the world. For further information please visit the Heritage Festival Web Site at http://www.metrokc.gov/parks/heritage/ We hope to see you there, sincerely, Dave Ault, for the Genealogy Search Steering Committee.

Thank you Kevin for your most welcomed reply. I'm so pleased that the Sno Pioneer Cem site will be a part of that itinerary. We all need examples of our shortcomings to jar our awareness of reality of what is going on about us. This one is an excellent Example of what is meant by that idea. The North portion and the South portion, both sides of the "Hwy 2 Cemetery Cut of 1947" must be seen to get the scope of what happened at that old cem site. It is still a cemetery, though abandoned, legally. It is desgnated as a cem. on most maps of Snohomish, including the Thomas maps, et al. I would very much enjoy going on that Tour of cems. in Aug. Thank you, Kevin and all of the others involved in creating and sponsoring this very worthwhile endeavor to preserve and maintain our cems in honor of those who have gone before us, and who deserve c a r e and r e s p e c t.

COMMENTARY: Shows 2 PIX, each wearing a SEATTLE uniform. Native born Snohomish, the late Earl Averill, honored by the National Baseball Hall of Fame, Cooperstown, NY. Earl Averill began in Seattle professionally; spent 13 yrs. with major leagues, including Cleveland Indians, Detroit Tigers. Snohomish High School grad., the late Earl Torgeson spent 15 yrs in the major leagues, including Boston Braves, Chicago White Sox, and he was a member of 1951 World Series New York Yankees. I'd like to add another Earl of Snohomish, Earl Averill ("Jr.") who played ball professionally for several teams around the U.S. Earl currently lives in Auburn, WA. He keeps the genealogy of the Averill Line of Snohomish, et al and the branches of the Averill Family. * * * It is well to note here that Earl Averill Sr. the Hall of Famer's father Entor Averill, and Earl's infant brother, Jothem, or Joe Averill were buried in the SNOHOMISH PIONEER CEMETERY, located at 2nd St & Cypress (bridge cut leaving Snohomish to access Hwy 2 east toward Monroe). Traditionally, Averill Field is and has been located at 2nd & Pine Ave (NW corner), but the City, nor any of its organizations has posted a plaque there in his honor. There is not even a sign which designates the location as Averill Field. The City, and Others have visions of Other uses in the near Future of Averill Field. Earl Averill did a great deal to put "Snohomish on the Map" in the United States - the quaint Indian name became synonymous with this baseball Hall of Famer, a part of Snohomish's History that need not be obscured by true historians of this place. * * * KLA HA YA !

When on August 18, 2001 a Tour of 8 Cems. Snohomish & Machias areas, be sure to INCLUDE Snohomish Cemetery (variously known as Snohomish Pioneer Cem., Indian Cem.- which contained Pioneer Caucasian & Indian remains some of which may still remain there.). It's Location at 2nd Street & Cypress, just East of Pine Street should be a FINE EXAMPLE of an Old Cemetery - the only cem. within the city limits of Snohomish - a cem that was desecrated in several ways, neglected, vandalized, and the City of Snohomish held the Deed to it. Snohomish Cemetery dates to 1875, and the last burial was approx. 1930. The Last of the Pilchuck Tribe of Snohomish Indians, namely Pilchuck Jack Julie was buried there in 1923. Though there is a Memorial pink granite stone at the G.A.R. cem. her remains are NOT definitely know to buried at that memorial stone site. Some of the stones were moved from Snohomish Cemetery (aka Snohomish Indian Cem.) to the G.A.R., but not necessarily the remains as attested by Family Members, descendants who know this to be true. The stones were removed because they were tall statuesque stones and vandals had threatened to deface and overturn them at Snohomish Cem. site, therefore they were moved to GAR where they could be preserved from such destruction. I hope that this Site will be a PART of the Cem. Tour on August 18, 2001 because it is a Prime Example of WHAT CAN HAPPEN to a cemetery when is dishonored, desecrated, and in disarray. Buildings were moved upon it both in the South and North portions. Some of the better stones were moved to the North portion of it when Hwy 2 was cut throught the near center of that Cemetery, which was done as legally as possible at the time in 1947 as a necessary access for Hwy 2 to access areas to the East, such as Monroe. Since then, Hwy 2 has been re-routed around the City of Snohomish, and the cemetery cut, formerly Hwy 2, is simply called 2nd St bridge across the Pilchuck River, just below the Cemetery. I hope that Snohomish Cemetery will be used a Learning Tool for those of you who go on that Tour of the Cems. of Snohomish and Machias. As kids, we used to stop at the Old Indian Cemetery as we called it, and tromp around in the high grass. I can recall several of the high oblisks which were eventually moved to the GAR cem just out of town. Many of the stones were in disarray. Some had lambs at the top of the stone denoting a child buried there. We talked of Pilchuck Julia's burial place approximately, and of the the other Indian burials, and of pioneers buried there. This cemetery was located just above our swimming hole at the old 2nd Str. bridge - a steel bridge - the concrete bases for it are still visible. The road that had been used today leads down to the playfields and park for youth to the South near the Pilchuck River today. Many of us fought and supported legal measures to try to further utilize the Snohomish Cem. but the judge set up responsibilities for any further use of the cem. for other means. The Site is a Learning Tool and should be experienced as an EXAMPLE of what can happen to a cem. that was neglected, not only by the community, but by the City who held the Deed to it. There were recessions, hard times, WWI, the Depression, WWII, all sorts of excuses why it was neglected. But, it was an excellent hiding place for the booze distribution that sometimes accompanied the milk distribution. Tombstones were good drop-off places for a bottle or two of the "good stuff" from a still not that far away, or from the rum-runners what came down from Canada and had their drop off places. Snohomish Sand & Gravel at one point in time - Prohibition - had a "hollow spot" for the rum & other products. That gravel pit that I recall, but didn't realize at the time that I was a small kid, was hollow and made a great stashing place. That was a few blocks N of the cem. Snohomish has a lot of h i s t o r y that hasn't been told. Snohomish Cemetery is one of them - the long List of burials at that cemetery says that not all of those remains could have been removed. It would have been too costly to do so, and just the cut through the cem. for the 1947 cut through the near center, was much more costly than had been anticipated. Much of the remains taken just for the Hwy 2 cut are unaccountable, yet they were supposed to have been accountable at the time, in 1947! Amen. Happy Fourth of July ! Sincerely, Carroll H. Clark, Snohomish, WA (1924) [email protected] * * * 30 * * *

Hi Andi, That would be very nice, thank you very much. The first tour was a week ago, and was lots of fun.

Thank you to all who helped me out with the Mexico yearbook question.... I can't believe I didn't think about looking 'em up through their website.... Unfortunately I took German in school.... Darilee

The July meeting of the Seattle TMG users group will be held July 14, at 2:30 p.m., Broadview Library. We've not had a "beginners" meeting for some time, so this month we'll focus on some of the basics of TMG: navigating the main menu and the three Views (Person, Family, Tree); setting up new repositories and new sources; and finally, entering new people, new events, pictures and other exhibits. If there's time, we'll also talk about cleaning up data imported from other software (e.g., using the Master Source List's "realign" feature to fix imported place names). The Broadview Library is located on the corner of 130th & Greenwood Ave. N. Please find parking on the adjacent streets, as the library's parking lot is reserved for library patrons. The intersection is served by Metro Route #5, southbound from Shoreline and northbound from downtown Seattle. (Note that the earthquake-related closure of the Alaskan Way Viaduct to bus traffic to & from West Seattle means the almost certain delay of the Route #5 from downtown, so don't trust the printed schedule ... take an earlier bus!) Metro Route #302 also serves the 130th & Greenwood intersection, leaving the Northgate Transit Center at 2:05, arriving at about 2:20. From the north, Route #302 leaves Aurora Village at 1:58 and arrives at around 2:20. Everyone is welcome! Please RSVP to this message, to help us prepare sufficient handouts. --Ed

Darilee, The book is from the Little Hebrew School of Mexico. I don't read Hebrew, but that's what the writing is. It is probably in celebration of the 30th anniversary of the school.

The yearbook you have is from the Colegio (College) Israelita (Israelite) De (of) Mexico. Go into Google.com and do a serch and the web site will come up. I tried to translate into English but did not work. Good Luck! Susan Hudgens

Ah, the joy of doing mass emails. I forgot I had the PS roots address in my address book when I sent out my change of address email. Please disregard. Sorry for the inconvenience Jan Hubert

First off, I didn't mean to make the message sooooo criptic but I wrote this at work and a customer was NOT pleased that I was trying to get the first note sent off.... the yearbook at http://www.3rdstbooks.com/mexicoybook.JPG is IMO a yearbook from Mexico.... and is in two languages perhaps spanish and hebrew???? and covers the time period longer then 1 year. There are student pictures for such years at 1949 1952 1954 etc. etc. Lots of pictures of adults... all the students names are in the hebrew???? script.... It opens from back to front... OK...it opens at the back and I think goes to front... Hope that helps a bit...

Everybody, So OK, don't tell your husbands, but do tell your congressmen and senators. Do something now while there may still be time. These increases are horrendous and uncalled for. the chaps Austin, Texas
