ANCESTRY NATURAL GAS DOES NOT STINK COMING OUT OF THE GROUND. WHY DOES IT STINK?
Natural gas stinks because Mercaptan is added to the gas. It is a colorless gas with a distinctively putrid smell. It is a natural substance found in the blood, brain, and feces of animals (including humans) and plant tissues. It also occurs naturally in certain foods, such as nuts and cheese. It is one of the chemical compounds responsible for bad breath and the smell of flatus.
The reason why is in the headline below. The New London, TX school was heated with odorless natural gas in...

FAMILY SANTA COMES DOWN THE CHIMNEY ON NEW YEAR'S EVE?
You can see in the pictures above that in the 1800's Santa was not commonly portrayed as a plump jolly guy. The guy in the article on top has a pipe, but no beard. Possibly the four Santa Claus' above us were retired Civil War generals?
You can see the old articles about New Year's Eve as being when cookies were laid out and Santa went down the chimney on New Year's Eve. Apparently, in other nations, but also America that used to be quite common. Find more information at the link...

The Lowry Gang was initially started to aid those hiding from conscription. Other residents resorted to "lying out" (hiding in the region's swamps) to avoid being rounded up by the Confederate Home Guard and forced to work for low wages. As...

GENEALOGIST FOR HIRE- THE HAPPIEST AND LEAST HAPPY STATES IN AMERICA!
I get Utah, being the happiest state for the reasons they mentioned above. Vermont is the chill part of the Northeast. Wisconsin, Iowa, and Nebraska have those good old-fashioned midwestern values. Colorado and Wyoming have the "outdoorsyness" of Utah.
In the 60s you have more outdoorsy western states like Alaska, Hawaii, Washington, Idaho, and Montana along with brightly-lit Nevada. More midwestern places like North Dakota, Kansas, Oklahoma, Illinois, Michigan, and Minnesota. Kentucky, Alabama, Tennessee, and North Carolina bring the mid-eastern states into the rankings, along with New York the cultural icon.

The above cartoon ran in 1901. Below are six of the many predictions from 1900 made for the next 100 years by John Elfreth Watkins. The first three came true; the next three did not.
1. Digital color photography- Watkins did not, of course, use the word "digital" or spell out precisely how digital cameras and computers would work. Still, he accurately predicted how people would come to use new photographic technology.
2. Television- "Man will see around the world. Persons and things of all kinds will be brought within focus of cameras connected electrically with screens at opposite ends of circuits,...

The article above is about George Washington's 1789 inauguration, our nation's first. Certainly a different military presence.
I just got a note from Ancestry.com telling me that I have built 76 family trees, placed 108,000 family members and ancestors into those trees, attached 110,000 records, and uploaded 15,000 photos. Other than my own tree that is all since 2015. Contact me and let's get started on your tree, and we can set some Guinness records together!
You can use Dancestors Genealogy to find out more about your ancestors, or you can buy a Tesla and drive it into the graveyard.
