GENEALOGIST- APPARENTLY, THE MOVIE WAS A BOX OFFICE BUST, BUT IT WAS AN INTERESTING STORY!
GENEALOGIST- The Business Plot (also called the Wall Street Putsch and The White House Putsch) was an alleged political conspiracy in 1933 in the United States to overthrow the government of President Franklin D. Roosevelt and install a dictator. Retired Marine Corps Major General Smedley Butler asserted that wealthy businessmen were plotting to create a fascist veterans' organization with Butler as its leader and use it in a coup d'état to overthrow Roosevelt. In 1934, Butler testified under oath before the United States House of Representatives...

WHY GENEALOGISTS WERE IMPORTANT TO CHRISTIANITY IN EARLY EUROPE
Consanguinity is the characteristic of kinship with another person (being descended from a common ancestor).
Many jurisdictions prohibit people who are related by blood from marrying or having sexual relations with each other. The degree of consanguinity that gives rise to this prohibition varies from place to place. Such rules are also used to determine the heirs of an estate according to statutes that govern intestate succession. In some places and periods, cousin marriage is allowed or even encouraged; in others, it is taboo and considered incest.
The degree of relative consanguinity can be...
GENEALOGISTS KNOW THAT AMERICA ONCE INVADED RUSSIA?
The United States Invasion of Russia Was a Yearlong Freezing Hell for the Troops
Fighting a war in Russia during the winter is never a good idea, and yet time and again, people keep trying. The United States is as guilty of it as Napoleon was.
In November of 1918, much of the world was jubilantly celebrating the end of World War I, the "war to end all wars." As those celebrations caught the attention of newspapers and newsreels all over the United States, there was one group of Americans whose war hadn't yet ended.

Have people ever lied to the census takers?
While researching a client's ancestry, I came across a Jennie May Morrison, who on April 6, 1940, was recorded as living with her two daughters, declaring herself to be a married woman, but there is no husband listed. 6 days later, she appeared again in the census as the wife of Paul Morrison, with two different daughters. How could that be?
The second set of daughters were the children of Paul and another wife named Irma Fisher. Irma posed as Jennie May in the census, so that Paul couldn't be accused of being...
Good morning fellow descendants,
I recall a cousin of my mom’s years ago, asking, “so when do you say you’re done with your search? When you get back to Adam and Eve?”
That is a good question, as a lot of folks like me research their family history, collecting thousands of pages of material, pictures, and documents. If you don’t take steps to say, “Ok, I could find more, but I am at the point, where I need to bring some closure, and put the materials in a format where they can be enjoyed and will survive for future generations.”
If you don’t ever...
