In my first published venture in pre-Penn genealogy in the Delaware valley in 1983, I advanced the theory that my ancestor, the Swedish soldier Peter Jochimsson, was not only the father of Peter Peterson Yocum but "probably also had a daughter named Elizabeth Petersdotter, who later married John Ogle, one of the soldiers participating in the English conquest of the Dutch in

Rightmeyer, Don. North or South? Finding Your Kentucky Civil War Ancestor, Kentucky Ancestors, Vol. 43, No. 3, Frankfort, KY: Kentucky Historical Society, 2008

The first step in discovering if you have ancestors who served during the Civil War is to work on your own family tree back to and even earlier than the Civil War. A primary reference for Kentuckians' documented service in the Civil War are the four volumes of the Report of the Adjutant General of the State of Kentucky. Two volumes for Kentucky Union volunteers were compiled and published in 1866/67 and two additional volumes were printed in 1915/1918 for Kentucky men who served in the Confederate army. The Adjutant General's Reports include short capsule histories for individual army units and lists of the

Biographical notes: He was an early pioneer to this town [Lebanon, CT], and was highly esteemed as an intelligent father, friend and  counselor, leading a respectable family of influential children and grand-children in the paths of virtue and true religion. When he died, 18 December, 1718, he left behind him the legacy of a good name, that his children might profit by his example.  From him and his children has come down an influence for morality, for patriotism, and pure religion, which will continue to extend and bless other generations.

Notebook - Massachusetts No. 3

Anderson, Robert.  A Closer Look at the Great Migration Study Project, New England Ancestors, Fall 2001.

The primary mission of the Great Migration Study Project has been to serve as a guide to what is known about each of the immigrants to New England between 1620 and 1643 and to replace the many older reference works we have for these families.

At a very early stages of the project, we developed a sketch format to organize our biographical and genealogical knowledge of each of the immigrants.  This format has stood up well over the years, but the material included under each heading within a sketch has undergone changes. Most importantly, the original plan was to include a list of the names of the children of each immigrant, with only birth or baptismal data attached; but David Greene (who, along with Robert Wakefield and Roger Joslyn, has been from the beginning of the project one of the readers of sketch drafts) soon insisted that more detail be given for the children, including especially their marriages, but also other information where relevant.

Other changes have been made as well.  In the section on "Offices," there has been a steady trend to present the data in a more rational form, with civil offices given first, and then military offices, and within each of those subsections, the material was further divided by the jurisdiction within which the service was performed.

Notebook - Maryland No. 2

Barnes, Robert. Marriages & Deaths from the Maryland Gazette, 1727-1839, Baltimore, MD: Genealogical Publishing Co., Inc., 1973 - available on Ancestry

The Maryland Gazette was first published in Annapolis in 1727 by William Parks. Parks had previously established two newspapers in England: the Ludlow Post-Man in 1719 and the Reading Mercury in 1723. He came to Annapolis in March 1725/6 and shortly thereafter established the Maryland Gazette, which was the first paper to be published south of Pennsylvania. Publication of the Gazette was carried on intermittently until 1734.

Parks held the post of Public Printer in the Province of Maryland from 1727 until 1737. In 1730 he established a press in Williamsburg, Virginia and in 1736 became the editor of the Virginia Gazette. He was also Public Printer of Virginia until 1750, the year of his death.

The Maryland Gazette was re-established in 1745 by Jonas Green, a native of Connecticut and the son of Deacon Timothy Green. . . . 

The Gazette usually consisted of a folded sheet of four pages, with nearly half the space devoted to advertising. News from Europe and from other colonies took up the bulk of the remaining space, with part of one column given over to Annapolis news. Deaths and marriages were sometimes found in this column, but later, when they became a popular feature, they were listed separately under the headings "Marriages' and "Deaths," or as they were waggishly referred to in the early nineteenth century, "The Knot" and "The Knell."  The early issues of the paper carried comparatively few marriage and death notices other than those concerning  prominent citizens.  The inclusion of notices of notices of ordinary citizens was a gradual process.
