Download or read book American Genealogy written by Howexpert and published by Howexpert. This book was released on 2020-01-24 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Genealogy is increasingly popular these days. The popularity of the television show "Who Do You Think You Are" and the plethora of websites and books on the subject (this book included) attest to the popularity of understanding the present by uncovering the past. Just one hour of television viewing can bring you several commercials for Ancestry.com, and that's just one genealogy service. There are magazines, blogs, podcasts, and even degree programs about genealogy. Genealogy has become big business, worth over $1.6 billion - that's billion with a "b" - in 2012 alone. Why this sudden fascination with tracing our roots? Some people say it's because the modern world is in such a state of confusion and flux that the past, that golden realm where all of the bad things are over and everything has already happened, can see like a much safer place to put our attention. I actually think that in our drive to be more self-aware, we have discovered that to know who we are, we really need to know who we've been and where we come from. There is so much that can be learned from researching your family's past, not just about the people who came before you, but also about the world as it once was. A family tree is history writ small, showing the effects of larger events on individuals, and sometimes the influence of individuals on larger events. It's a personalized form of history, with a bit of old-fashioned detective work thrown in for good measure. It's a treasure hunt and a mental puzzle, and the thrill of discovering some new nugget of information is a very real thing. As you go back in time with your family names and dates, you'll make little stops in different eras of history, like a time traveler. Take each of these stops as opportunities to look out the windows of the house of the family that you're building. Let's say that you were born in 1969. You don't have any clear memories of that year, obviously. What was happening in your town that year? In your state? In your country? The year you were born was the end of the turbulent 1960s, a decade of change. The Vietnam War was being fought, and the conflict was being televised for the first time. Did you have relatives fighting at Khe Sanh? Did they come back? Was it your father? Your older brother? Was your cousin neighbor a hippie, while the rest of your family supported the government? Or was it the exact opposite? Look out the window at 1969. Try to get to know it, and understand how the history of that year colored who you became. About the Expert Jody Cummings is an amateur genealogist who has been researching her family tree for more than 13 years. She earned a B.A. in History, Spanish and Anthropology from the Michigan State University Honors College and has published several novels under the name J. A. Cummings.

Book Synopsis The Compendium of American Genealogy by : Frederick A. Virkus
Download or read book The Compendium of American Genealogy written by Frederick A. Virkus and published by Clearfield. This book was released on 2012-06 with total page 1042 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Compendium of American Genealogy is the most important collection of American lineage records of the 20th century. It contains the lineage records of the first families of America, with records extending in both male and female lines from the earliest-known immigrant ancestor to the then (1925-1942) living subject of the record. According to the first census there were about 650,000 families living in the United States in 1790, practically every one of which was of colonial or Revolutionary stock and thus entitled to be numbered among America's "First Families." Every lineage in the Compendium spans at least eight or nine generations. While not all families are represented, almost every name distinguished in any way in the early history of the country will be found within its pages. The Compendium was compiled largely from lineage records and manuscript genealogies submitted by individuals selected for inclusion, many illustrated with photographs, portraits, and coats of arms. Each record was checked and edited, then typed up in the form of a "proof" and returned to the submitter for final review before ultimately being printed in one of the volumes. Thus prepared at great expense of time and labor, and with painstaking care, the seven massive volumes contain more than 54,000 lineage records, with indexes listing upwards of 425,000 names, making it, without doubt, the first reference and research source in colonial era American genealogy."--Genealogical.com.

Book excerpt: The founders of a lauded family advocacy organization present a guide for reclaiming family life, even in the most hectic households. In the past twenty years, children's free time has declined by twelve hours a week, time spent on structured sports activities has doubled, family dinners are down by a third, and the number of families taking vacations together has decreased by 28 percent. When William J. Doherty and Barbara Z. Carlson observed this trend in their own families and community, they took action and founded Family Life First, an organization committed to helping parents reclaim family time. Doherty and Carlson offer realistic ways to regain valuable family connections and embark on more balanced, meaningful relationships at home. Drawing on their years of hands-on experience, they share tips for time-crunched parents on how to: --get everyone to sit down for family meals --make bedtime a meaningful end to the day --plan family outings and vacations --make time for your marriage More than just a time-management manual, this book delves into the issues that lie at the heart of all family-related choices, revealing innovative ways to address scheduling conflicts, competitiveness, and the many other situations that cause daily angst. Offering a new perspective on a fraying institution, Putting Family First restores a sense of fulfillment, fun, and security to the family once again.

Download or read book Family First written by Ruth A. Symes and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2015-10-30 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discover the history of family roles and relationships—and how to learn more about your own ancestors. A blend of social history and family history, Family First looks at relationships and our attitudes and experiences surrounding them—fathers, mothers, babies, children, aunts, uncles, cousins, grandparents and the elderly, friends and neighbors. This book examines how readers might learn more about how their own ancestors functioned in these relationships, and what records might tell us more. Each chapter starts with a guide on how to interpret the most common and direct of family history sources, then goes on to examine each relationship in its changing historical contexts—how, for example, did the role of a father differ in the Victorian period from earlier periods? What similarities and differences were there in behavior and roles between fathers of different social classes? How did fatherhood change in the context of the two world wars? How has family size changed? How have opinions shifted about marriage between cousins? Explore these questions and more in this intriguing book.

Book excerpt: Never get involved with your patients. Police department psychologist Kira McGinnis lives by that rule. She has enough on her plate – caring for her five-year-old daughter and her troubled teen-age brother – without adding more complications. But now difficult, charming Detective Jake Donnelly is one of her patients. And he’s using his tough-guy routine to hide his feelings. Jake says he’ll do anything to get back to active duty – but he’s not trying very hard. He doesn’t trust shrinks – with good reason – and he doesn’t want Kira to know what he’s thinking or feeling. He’d like to get to know Kira better – outside the job. But that’s impossible, since he is her job.
