    1. Unidentified Pictures
    2. Lorna
    3. Hello, Sorry if some of you may receive this message more than once. I am sending this to several lists. I have uploaded some unidentified pictures to my homepage. Can anyone identify these folks, or where the pictures were taken? On the back of one of the pictures it says, "This was made on my dad's Birthday. He was 97 June the 17, and I was 64 the 20th of May." This picture was taken abt. June of 1958. (This does not match ANY data that I have for any of my family members.) The other pictures are circa. 1939. On one of the pictures it shows a jacket cover for a book, (this is on a side table) that lists the HANS-WATTS Realty Co. Is anyone familiar with where this Realty co. could have been? Huntington,WV maybe? If anyone can identify these pictures or has any suggestions, ideas.... they are definately needed and most welcome! Thanks!!

    1. LDS web site
    2. I found this on another list and thought some on this list might be interested in the progress of the site... Fran To all of you interested in the Family Search site.....my brother in law is an employee of the LDS Church and was the head of Family Search for some time. I wrote him yesterday about the site to say that no one could get on because the server was busy.....this is his reply. Michele They don't want anyone on the server now. They aren't ready for any Beta type testing. They took it down today to put in special passwords. Somebody leaked or someone discovered the network's pre-beta test address and put the address up on the net. The internet system will not be ready for any outside internal evaluators for some period of time. Can't tell you when -- I don't think anyone knows.

The articles are prepared by DAR member Clara Pauline Adkins to enlighten enrich, educate and remember our ancestors. Any correspondence can be mailed to Adkins at P. O. Box 86, Fort Gay, WV 25514. THE LYNCH FAMILY – PART I The first record of the Lynch family I could find was of Sarah Lynch, born in 1811 or 1812. Her husband was Enoch Lynch, but he must have died early in life, as there is not record of him. He was not included in the 1850 census. Sarah lived in Pulaski County in the year 1836. Here are Lynch family members recorded in the 1850 census: --Sara Lynch, head of household, 40 years old. --Fenner Lynch, son, 17 years old. --David Lynch, son, 16 years old. --Mary A. Lynch, daughter, 12 years old. Fenner Lynch was born in 1834 in Pulaski County. He was married twice, once to a woman named Darcus and a second time to an Elizabeth. He had a total of five children. --William J. Lynch, born 1856. --Burl Lynch, born 1861. --Charlie Lynch, born 1884. --Wayne Lynch, born 1892. --Sarah Ann Lynch, born 1864.

    1. LDS Update
    2. Picked this up from another list. Lengthy but informative. ---------------------------------------- This was found at http://www.msnbc.com/news/246411.asp THE NEW WEB SITE (www.familysearch.org) won't officially launch until mid-April, but it is expected to "go live" for testing any day now. Church officials originally planned to leave the site open to all during he test period. But for fear of being swamped, they now may limit access to official testers with assigned passwords. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints collects genealogical records of all kinds because the Mormons believe it is important to perform religious rites on behalf of dead ancestors. It has the world's largest collection of such data. Genealogy is one of the most popular subjects on the Internet. As more information goes online, it seems to create more genealogists. About 100 million Americans have at least dabbled in it, and 19 million actively research their family history, according to a 1995 Maritz Marketing Research study for American Demographics magazine. Rootsweb (www.rootsweb.org) has more than 200,000 subscribers to 3,000 e-mail lists about genealogy. The number of subscribers is growing rapidly, according to John V. Wylie, a professional genealogist from Grand Prairie, Texas. Wylie is a co-founder of GENTECH (www.gentech.org), a non-profit society to help genealogists use technology. Mormon Church officials are vague about what Web surfers can expect to find on their new site, but that hasn't dampened genealogists' enthusiasm. I think the reaction is probably going to be unanimously, 'Wow! It's about time!"' said Marthe Arends, editor of the newsletter Pioneers Online (www.eskimo.com/~mnarends), based in Bellevue, Wash. The newsletter helps genealogists use the Internet. With 2.1 million rolls of microfilm, 700,000 microfiches and 280,000 books, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (www.lds.org) is the ultimate source for many genealogists. The master collection, which includes the birth, death and marriage records of an estimated 6 billion people, is kept in a vault carved 900 feet into the side of Granite Mountain. Completed in 1964, the vault is a testament to the importance the Church places on tracing one's ancestors and performing for them vicarious ordinances of baptism and marriage so that those who lived and died before Joseph Smith founded the church in 1830 can enjoy the benefits of God's grace. The vault contains six separate chambers, each 200 feet long, 30 feet wide and 15 feet tall. The entire vault, dug into the side of the canyon, lies 800 to 900 feet under the mountaintop. The microfilm records are maintained at a temperature below 70 degrees Fahrenheit and at a humidity below 35 percent. Due to the need for a controlled environment, visitors are not permitted, but MSNBC's 360-degree surround video gives you a sense of what one sees at the mouth of the vault. Anyone can use the materials at the Family History Library in Salt Lake City free of charge. They may also borrow materials for a small handling fee at any one of the library's 3,200 branches. A tiny, but important portion of that is available by computer. In 1978, the church began computerizing some of its records in a program dubbed FamilySearch. The program is currently only offered at libraries and branch libraries. The church won't sell FamilySearch to individuals because it can't afford to offer everyone support for DOS, the older operating system the program requires. That makes it the perfect candidate for putting on the Web. With 2 billion rolls of microfilm, 700,000 microfiches and 280,000 books, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (www.lds.org) is the ultimate source for many genealogists. One of the first FamilySearch databases expected to be offered on line is Ancestral File. The simple database lets surfers type in names and find family trees compiled by other researchers, mostly amateurs. As useful as that can be, the information is only as good as the person who submitted it," said Arends. "I'd personaly like to see more primary sources being put online." The International Genealogical Index, also part of FamilySearch, lets researchers search millions of marriage, death and birth records taken from records in the United States and abroad. The church won't say if the index will be offered on the Web site. Even with thousands of church volunteers typing the information from original records into computers, "We can digitize only a tiny fraction of what we capture each year," said David Rencher, manager of public outreach for the Family History Department of the Mormon Church. Still, the output is impressive. Over the past year, the church not only updated FamilySearch, but also released five sets of CD-ROMs reaching back 450 years and ranging from Australian Vital Records to the 1851 British Census. In 1999, it will release the full 1880 U.S. Census and the 1881 British Census, both on CD-ROM. Church volunteers are also working on a 17 million-person database of Ellis Island immigrants that will be released on CD-ROM by the church, posted online by the Statue of Liberty-Ellis Island Foundation (www.ellisisland.org) and made available at the new American Family Immigrant History Center due to open late next year on Ellis Island.

    2. Hi everyone. James Adkins posted this on the Adkins list group and I thought some of you on this list might be interested.. Fran Hi Everyone, I was contacted today to evaluate a new genealogy program that generates HTML pages from a GEDCOM file. As most of you know, I have been using Gene Stark's GED2HTML program for about 3 years and am very pleased with its output. There is a new shareware program called GED4WEB and the author has asked me to check it out. While it is a little different from what I currently have, I want your opinion on its output. The main homepage for GED4WEB is: http://www.papineaufamily.com/anthony/familytree/ged4web.htm To view the sample output, you can follow a link from the above link, or go directly to this one. http://www.papineaufamily.com/anthony/familytree/ged4web/Index.htm If you have forgotten what my pages look like or if you have never been to them before, my homepage is at: http://fly.hiwaay.net/~jjadkins/genealogy/HTML/surnames.html Let me know what you think about the new output and if you think I should change what I have.
