Learning About Family Genealogy Backgrounds

Friday, May 29th, 2009
James Brown asked:


The treatment of diseases like Multiple Sclerosis is very complex at times because there has been no cure identified for it. Many researchers have studied Family genealogy backgrounds to look for evidence of birth effects that could be associated with any stage of Multiple Sclerosis. Since it is a progressive disease that is controllable, researchers hope to find a path to follow to show that at some point in the family history, certain maladies were controlled by some factor.

By studying Family Genealogy backgrounds, researchers can identify which side of the family was first afflicted with ailments that dealt with joint pain or the degeneration of tissue and cartilage around a joint. Since Multiple Sclerosis is so diversified in the number of symptoms that can be present at any one time, researchers have found that any information is very helpful in finding a cure for the disease.

Some Family Genealogy backgrounds might reflect historical references to many birth defects that are ever present in each generation that is born within the family tree. Some European family cultures may have had adverse reactions when the genes in their genealogical history were mixed with other races along the line. Some families require a clear bloodline to claim that they are bluebloods and should be treated as royals.

The Family Genealogy backgrounds are very important to many families because it might define the people who would make suitable donors for an organ transplant. When donations through immediate family members is not longer an option, it might prove very useful if the family had a genealogical background for physician’s to reflect on to find a suitable donor for blood marrow or an organ transplant.

Many people want to be kept informed of the Family Genealogy backgrounds because they are high risk candidates for any pregnancy and want to give their child the best start in life that is possible. Doctors do many microscopic tests during a pregnancy and any family history of defects can prevent some tragedies from occurring. Some Doctors might recommend that a pregnancy be terminated early if they find evidence of a certain trait in the blood work that is done during pregnancy.

Middle-aged mothers are often asked to submit to an amniocentesis so that the cellular development of their child can be studied while the child is still in the womb. If this family had to guess at what the Family genealogy backgrounds and structure of their family tree were, then they might be ill prepared to tell the Doctor’s of any history of any disease that is prevalent on either side of their family tree. The end result is a birth defect that the child may have to live with the rest of their life.

President John Kennedy and Genealogy

Friday, May 29th, 2009
Rby asked:


   I was told that the snow fell heavy the night before the inauguration.  The thought of canceling the speech was out of the question.  My family and I huddled around the radio to listen to “The inaugural address of President John F. Kennedy”.  It was was Friday, January 20, 1961.

He begins “…



We dare not forget today that we are the heirs of that first revolution. Let the word go forth from this time and place, to friend and foe alike, that the torch has been passed to a new generation of Americans—born in this century, tempered by war, disciplined by a hard and bitter peace, proud of our ancient heritage—and unwilling to witness or permit the slow undoing of those human rights to which this Nation has always been committed, and to which we are committed today at home and around the world.”



    As he continued to speak, I felt the grip of my father’s hand and I heard to my mother praying over and over again,  ”Lord Bless Mr. Kennedy he is a good soul”. Then I felt the tears on my shoulder from my mother as President Kennedy began to said “



  And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you—ask what you can do for your country.



  My fellow citizens of the world: ask not what America will do for you, but what together we can do for the freedom of man.”

 

    You may begin to wonder what President and genealogy has in common.  This article is not about President Kennedy although he made a major impression my life.  It is not about money, which I believe there is never enough. 

 

    This article  is about time. Something we can always find when we need it. This is about you taking time out of their busy schedule to do something nice for someone.  President Kennedy closes,  



“ Finally, whether you are citizens of America or citizens of the world, ask of us the same high standards of strength and sacrifice which we ask of you. With a good conscience our only sure reward, with history the final judge of our deeds, let us go forth to lead the land we love, asking His blessing and His help, but knowing that here on earth God’s work must truly be our own.”

    Have you given time to your family, friends or someone you know that is most deserving?  Have you offered to do something for no charge and really meant it from the bottom of your heart.  Have you given someone a chance who otherwise would not have had one?

 

    Have you denied the time to give back to someone or somewhere that gave to you?  Did you do some selective forgetting?  Did you finally find a reason not to pay back someone who you  truly owed nothing but a simple thank-you?

 

    Remember you have to realize how you treat stranger.  They may be an angel unaware. 

 

    Have you taken time to help someone who may want something as simple as a family tree started?   Have you taken time to share information you may know they do not know?  Have you taken time to learn about your family?  Have you taken time to just listen?

 

    Take time.  Take time to start There are so many options.

1.  Start one in your church

2.  Start one in a rehab center

3.  Start one at a senior citizen home

4.  Start one as a family project

5.  Start taking time showing you care.

 

    Actions speak louder than words.  I have finally practiced what President Kenney was preaching.  I developed and have made available for the public to use free with free advertisement a site for building ones ancestry. There is unlimited free usage of family tree building, free search engines, chat room we will also have a site that  provides a section for people to shop for  free.  It does not limit the user to only use this site.  Our philosophy is the more the merrier.

 

    What do I mean by shopping free?  Genealogist, genealogical business, companies, agencies, association  will be allowed to advertised there  services free.

1.  Free for the user

2.  Free for the advertiser

3.  Free from traffic monitoring to each site

4.  Free where genealogydomain.com wants no revenue. The financial agreements will be between service provider the person requesting the use of their services. 

 

    The only requirement for those interested in free advertisement is that they give some time to help someone, organization or agency to start their genealogy. Since our kick-off state is Iowa, time or service has to be done or given here in Iowa or some type of Iowa connection.

 

    Businesses, companies, agencies, organizations, groups can join in and enjoy free advertisements as well.  Set-up an account and have your members, clients, employees join the site.  We will give out group usernames and passwords.  The responsibilities rely on you to hand out the usernames and passwords.  We will send you the requirements if interested.

 

    You may ask, what are we getting out of this?  The answer is very simple.  Nothing but the enjoyment of sharing the adventure of learning and sharing our ancestry. Last but not least, giving time.

 

     Are willing to participate?  Are you willing to work with me and other volunteers letting the world to know that with giving time there is no hill to climb. No one is asking for anyone to complete a family tree.  Most know that that is a never ending story. 

 

    We will work together and decide on the family or site.  This will assure no duplications as well as knowing that the service was professional.  There will be no waste of time then.

 

    Our time together is worth the time.  We together can say that we did not ask what anyone has done for us but we can tell what we have done for others and history.

Genealogy Maps Make Great Gifts

Thursday, May 28th, 2009
Danuin Mumm asked:


Have you ever wondered what the world was like when your ancestors lived?  Thanks to genealogy maps, you can!  No matter where in the world your ancestors existed, there are historical maps detailing the land as it was during those times.  Whether you’re a lover of history, a student, or a genealogist, you will be fascinated over ancient maps.

There were historic maps drawn during every year of recorded history.  The ancients did a great job drawing detailed maps with what limited resource they had.  There are literally thousands of historic maps that are still available for us today.  Not only can we read about history, but ancient world maps give us the opportunity to actually *see* history! 

Imagine seeing the world as the ancient Romans saw it.  Yes, it’s possible to see the rise and fall of the Roman Empire through historic maps!  It’s also possible to watch how America changed over the course of the Civil War.  Civil War maps were updated every day during the war.  There are even historic maps showing the location of many Native American tribes over the centuries!

No matter how far back into the past you’d like to go, you’ll be able to find a historic map dating back to that time.  Some of them even go back to 500 BC!

Modern technology gives us the opportunity to make exact copies of ancient maps. Replicas still have the look and feel of antique world maps.  You can collect physical copies of the historic maps, as well as download them. 

You can also buy them as gifts for family members.  If you have a genealogy freak or history buff in your family, antique world maps would be a perfect gift for them!  You can give them a chance to see the world through the eyes of their ancestors.  Allow them to see the immigration routes that their ancestors took, exactly as they took them.   Historic world maps are truly ideal gifts for anyone who is interested in either their own family history, or world history in general.

Tuesday, May 26th, 2009
Dustin Heath Cannon asked:


There are many things that you want to focus on when you have a home business, and working with your MLM genealogy lead is going to be important. There are several ways that you can make sure that your MLM genealogy lead is strong and that it is going to help you in the best way possible.

First of all, you want to be sure that you have through your MLM genealogy lead through in every sense of the word. You want to be sure that all of the details of your MLM genealogy lead have been worked out and that you know each of them is going to work out of your in the best way possible. This is a very important part of making sure that you are doing everything that you can when it comes to your MLM genealogy lead .

It is not only you that needs to take a look at your MLM genealogy lead and make sure that it is working in all of the details possible. There are many things that you have to think of when it comes to your MLM genealogy lead and the most important thing is going to be that you have all of the details worked out for your MLM genealogy lead and you know it is going to be a success. However, you can’t always see this for yourself, so sometimes you are going to have to take your time and make sure that you can get the most out of it. The best way to help yourself be sure that all of the details for your MLM genealogy lead are worked out in the right way is to find some help. Work with a friend or a financial advisor and go through all of the parts of the MLM genealogy lead that you are trying to put out there.

This is a very important part of your MLM genealogy lead and you want to be sure that you are doing it correctly.

Next, you have to put your MLM genealogy lead out there and see what happens. This is perhaps the hardest part of being involved with an MLM because you really don’t know what is going to happen all of the time. However, you are probably going to be able to see many of the changes right from the start when you begin your MLM genealogy lead.

Remember, the point of the MLM genealogy lead is for you to be at the top, and for the rest of your workers to be organized underneath you. This means that you have to be sure that you are organized and that you have all of the information that you need within your MLM genealogy lead to be sure that you come out on top. It might be tough to trust that you have done all you can with your MLM genealogy lead, but if you have done it right it is going to pay off and you are going to find that you are indeed on the top of everything.

Start your Family History Search with these Genealogy Tips

Thursday, May 21st, 2009
Shakora Malik asked:


With hundreds of genealogy charts, websites, computer programs, databases and subscription services, it can be intimidating to know where and how to begin a genealogy search. There are sites online that provide birth, marriage and death records and you can fill in the gaps with census records, military records, county records and cemeteries. But where does one begin?

Follow these tips to get a head start on your family’s history search.

1. Collect what you have

Before you leap into the mass of information available, collect and organize the information you have. This includes birth and marriage certificates, wills, maiden names, burial records and baptismal certificates.

2. Contact your current relatives

Once you have some information, contact your relatives and ask for any documents or helpful information that they may be able to provide. Do they have copies of birth certificates? Do they have contact information or knowledge of any family legends?

To obtain birth certificates, marriage records and death certificates, you need to know the mother’s Maiden name and the county in which the event took place. If you do not have this information, ask your relatives. Below are some documents that may be useful to your research:

Documents that your relatives may have:

- Birth, death or marriage records

- Journals or diaries

- Family photo albums or bibles

Remember to contact both your close relatives as well as your distant relatives. Another relative may have already started a genealogy search and then given up–you might find a relative who is eager to help you with your family history search.

3.  Begin the search!

You can find information online through a variety of websites. There are family history websites and genealogical websites dedicated to family history, many of which are subscription-based services. Expect to spend thirty or forty dollars on these services. You may also want to look at websites that offer public record information online for a nominal fee.

Records that may be available online:

- Census records

- Military records

- Hospital records

- Wills and deeds

- Emigration and immigration records

- Tip: Many databases online require a payment for their services. Before you pay to use any service, do a quick online research to make sure the company is reputable and safe.

University and state libraries are also great resources, as are family history libraries. You may be able to find relevant newspaper articles, history books that trace migrations, microfilms or records at these locations.

When conducting a family history search online or in the library, it is useful to know the full name of any deceased relatives, as well as the county and state where they are buried. Of course, this information may not be available at your fingertips. Remember, don’t get discouraged! Conducting a family history search can be time-consuming, but overall it can be a very valuable and rewarding experience. Don’t be afraid to ask for help from your local librarian or your relatives. They will likely be more than willing and happy to help. If you stumble on an aspect of your search, you can also turn to the internet–there are many discussion groups online that focus on genealogy.
