Genealogy Unit Lesson The purpose of this unit is designed to incorportate a host of innovative strataegies that are not often possible in a tradition leaning environment (i.e. creatiave writings in various forms, intergenerational learning, national and international collaborative research). This is an interdisciplinary unit incorporting skills and types of writing learned in Language Arts; Social Studies through the geography and history found in research of different countries and geographical regions; Reading; Computer Science; and the use of the Internet as a research source.

Using Maps in Genealogy Fact Sheet 099-02 (September 2002) Getting Started How Maps Can Be Useful Finding the Right Maps Gathering Other Resources ... More Information Getting Started Maps are one of the many sources you may need to complete a family tree. In genealogical research, maps can provide clues to where our ancestors may have lived and where to look for written records about them. Beginners should master basic genealogical research techniques before starting to use topographic maps. Introductory books on genealogy suggest timesaving ways to plan, gather, organize, and record findings. To learn basic genealogical research techniques, it's best to start with the most concise, easy-to-read books, gazetteers, articles, pamphlets, and other sources that apply directly to the kind of research you plan to do. Books on the shelves of your local library may not include those that will best serve your purpose. However, many libraries and bookstores have the latest edition of Books in Print. Its subject guide gives the titles, authors, publishers, and prices of hundreds of books on genealogy. Many libraries also have directories that give the names and addresses of local, State, regional, and national associations of genealogists, historians, and ethnic groups.

52. Beginning Scandinavian Genealogy Join genealogy/history clubs in localities where your ancestors lived. The World GenWeb similarly divides the world into regions, countries, http://www.scanfest.org/NGenealogy/genealogy.htm

Beginning Scandinavian Genealogy William B. Fagerström This is the handout from the lecture given at the 2002 Scandinavian Fest. 1. BEGINNINGS Start by documenting names, dates, and stories about family members. Let family know your interest and interview older family members. Church and civil records will always be there but personal memories and records will be lost with time unless documented. Family Stories When conducting an oral interview: make interviewee comfortable, don't correct them, let them take conversation in a direction they want. If you touch on a sensitive issue, don't pry. Ask specific questions (where was born). Ask broad questions (what was it like going to school, to church). Avoid asking "tell me all you know about our family history" as this can be overwhelming and hard for them to know where to start. Remember tape recorders and VCRs may be threatening, particularly on a first interview. Limit interview to about 60 minutes. Document stories-who said what and when. Important Records The family bible (may have notes about births, marriages and deaths), certificates of birth or baptism, marriage, and death certificates, naturalization papers, newspaper clippings, photo albums, movies, immigration, old letters from/to Scandinavian country, family tree, etc.

What's New Free Trials Orders Contacts ... Shopping Cart Facts About American Immigration By David M. Brownstone and Irene M. Franck The massive, worldwide emigration to the United States has been a major feature of world history for more than five centuries and into the present day. Facts About American Immigration explores this extraordinary saga, focusing on who came to the U.S. and from where, their reasons for coming, the nature of their journey, and where they settled, starting with the earliest Americans, who crossed the Bering Land Bridge into Alaska between 12,000 and 15,000 B.C. The volume is a practical resource for historians and sociologists, as well as a boon to genealogical researchers. The work opens with an overview, including extensive statistical materials, to place the process of immigration in a wide historical context. This section also includes A survey of the efforts to restrict immigration A portrait of the immigrant journey over the centuries A discussion of Native Americans and immigration A chronology of immigration The main section of the book delves into immigration experiences, numbers, and motives, by region of emigration: Europe, Africa, Asia, the Americas, and Oceania. Each section begins with a brief introduction to the region, followed by a series of articles focusing on specific countries or groups of countries. Articles include tables and graphs that summarize and portray statistical information relating to immigration, as well as related Internet and print resources. Each regional section ends with tables and graphs summarizing the pattern of immigration from the region, plus general Internet and print resources.

Family members have been at all levels of society from modestly successful farmers in New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania to wealthy New York tycoons and a First Lady, Elizabeth Kortright, Mrs. James Monroe. We anticipate that DNA test results will supplement traditional family history research and relate to it to define various branches of the family or families, and to help individuals find where they fit in the family tree. Project Goals: The primary goal is to support and supplement the work of persons researching Courtright family relationships by using DNA measurement comparisons to help confirm paternal links and to define separate branchs of the family tree.
