Genealogy

The tombstones I am trying to research are from the 1800's, early 1900's. I remember my daughter, when she was in school, went on a field trip to a cemetery and they used a certain type of paper and some kind of charcoal. the paper is taped or held and the charcoal rubbed lightly across the top of the paper. She can't remember so I am hoping for an answer here. Can you help? Thanks!

Back in the mid 1800's it was a very popular first or middle name for men in my grandmother's family. I've never seen it anywhere else, and wonder if anyone has heard of it - or might know the origin.

I've got other names like Simpson, Blanton, Hogg, and Walker. Her parents are Issac Simpson, and mother is Polly ? She was born in Perry County, Hazard , Ky. Where are these other names coming from? I've see her name listed as Hettie Hogg, Hettie Blanton, Hettie Simpson, and Hettie Walker. I've been looking for the right one and information on what is right for years.

I want to do it from both sides of my family. My dad's grandfather came from Wales and he moved to South Africa in probably the late 1890's early 1900's (I wouldn't be able to do any search in S.A. because I don't live there anymore). And my mom's dad's family is Scottish, but they never lived to tell anyone a tale. What can I do to go about all of this? Thank you for any help!

when i go snwboarding, or go anywhere in the mountians where there could be snow i never see black people. makes things more boring because usually black people make me laugh and have lots of jokes. plus its fun to watch them play the black card on people and watch the other oerson, usually white get scared.

Me being a mixture of an array of nationalities it seems very hard to trace back into my ancestry further than the 1800's.....My great grand mother on my mother's side was Irish, great grand father was Creole. On my Father's side, his Grand Mother was from the Bahamas and I'm not sure about his Grand Father maybe a civil war participant ...


Could you share with me what you found and what your sources were?

This quetion is for anyone who is of Mixed ancestry.

Thanks!

My info is Mary Carey Tudor, Mary Clark Carrie, and Mary (carrie) Tudor (1620-1648) Now if she is a Tudor this means she is kin to Henry VIII or a daughter, cousin etc. According to my records I have her married to John Bolling b 1610. Mary's parents are supposedly Thomas Curie, and Mrs Tom Carie (don't know maiden name) John Bolling's son is Col. Robt Thomas Bolling b 1646. Robert Bolling is listed in my genealogy as being married to Jane Rolfe daughter of John Rolfe and pocahontas which makes me her 15th great granddaughter. There are many Bollings in my family so I'm almost postive this is correct. I'm hoping you can help with the other questions. Thank you !

My great-grandmother died in 1922, and my great-grandfather left my grandmother behind with relatives, while he moved to California, possibly Santa Barbara. The last she knew of him, he had remarried, and then, he died in 1943, at about the age of 60. I have tried every geneaology site, contacted newspapers in CA, checked for online search engine hits, I just don't know. We are only trying to find out whether he had a second family with this other wife, as my grandmother would like to contact them if they exist.

I'm lucky enough to have a history buff great-uncle who wrote a sort of book about one side of my family. He managed to trace part of my family back to records from Halifax Parish, Yorkshire, England in 1611. I have no idea how he managed to do this. It tells about attacks by Native Americans and stuff later in the colonies. How do people find this stuff out? I'm impressed.

I know hardly anything about my mother's side of the family other than the fact that my grandfather constantly tells me I'm somehow related to Judy Garland (her real name gives it away and I have older relatives who looked like her and it's scary.) They also tell me that they are mostly German.

Do you know a lot about your family? Do you care? If you do know, what's the earliest you can trace? Things like this really interest me.
