Extractions: Subscribe to Ancestry Magazine! You might use maps to locate an ancestral home or to find a reference to a town that no longer exists. In "Gazetteers: Identifying Research Localities," Ancestry 12 (4) (July/August 1994), David Thackery notes the following: "Genealogy is, among other things, an exercise in geography. Successful research often hinges on identifying the locality in which one's ancestors lived. Once we know the locality, we are in a position to consult the records and histories for the area in an effort to piece together the lives of our forebears." Pinpointing modern place-names can begin with Frank R. Abate, ed., Omni Gazetteer of the United State of America , 11 vols. (Detroit: Omnigraphics, 1991). The work is subtitled "Providing Name, Location, and Identification for Nearly 1,500,000 Populated Places and Geographic Features in the Fifty States, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and U.S. Territories." Modern towns can also be sought in

For example, a lesson plan dealing with archaeology is automatically dealing with an anthropological subject. A lesson plan dealing with indigenous people is also automatically dealing with anthropology and any of them may, or may not, be dealing with history or ancient civilizations.

GENIP Politics As Usual. By PETER REES University of delaware social studies guidelines made occasional mention of maps, but the word geography was absent. http://genip.tamu.edu/article7.htm
Extractions: University of Delaware pdf The Experience of the Delaware Geographic Alliance Delaware is a small state, twenty minutes wide and two hours long. The only state that can claim to lie east of the Mason-Dixon line, it is a mix of the Tidewater South and South-East Pennsylvania culture areas. It has a strong rural base, exceeding most states in the proportion of its land under agriculture, yet it is also home to two major auto assembly plants, the chemical industry, and a large financial services center. Its population contains a melding of Protestant and Catholic, and Polish, Italian, African-American, Greek, and Hispanic ethnic groups. In other words, Delaware is very much a microcosm of the country. As such, it is a good place to examine the prospects for educational reform, in particular the growth of geography teaching and learning which is the goal of state geographic alliances across the country. FROM THE BEGINNING When the Delaware Geographic Alliance was formed in 1988 with a planning grant from the National Geographic Society, a geography instruction in Delaware was non-existent, buried as elsewhere in social studies curricula, taught primarily by history-trained teachers. A set of state-level social studies guidelines made occasional mention of maps, but the word "geography" was absent. Instead, the guidelines were dominated by economics, the result of active, energetic, and well-funded and politically connected
