It's interesting to see meanings attached to the surname I've stared at for so long. In the Hudson Valley, it looks like my BOYES family may have come from the BUYS family. I'm not sure if we have the keeper of the church records to thank for the va…

My Great grandmother was Hattie Garfield Bradley. She was born in 1880 in Cheshire Connecticut, and her line in New Haven County, CT can be traced back to William Bradley b. 1505 and lived in Coventry, Yorkshire, England. I have several other Bradle…

No wonder it was odd. It was spam made to look like GenealogyWise. I hope GW can improve our email security!

To try to accept a friend request seen in my email, but it's not on my pages. Odd.

Barb, I would love to communicate with the desc. of Cephas' sister. Hook us up if you can. It would be my pleasure. I wonder which sister??

All I know is that the Ebreys I am researching came from Shropshire. Haven't gone back past that.

Hi again Barbara:
I'm hoping we are given the option to display icons smaller. Right now, it's difficult to filter and find groups, discussions.
You wrote, "LARGE CAP...."
Gosh, golly, yes. I, too, recall those messages.

Hi Barbara,
I saw your note about Jim's Group Admins logo. Believe that FL "supersized" the logos of the featured groups when they started displaying them. While Jim is affiliated with FL, he'll probably need to ask the programers to change the way all the featured groups are displayed. I see they are only showing one featured group right now, but earlier in the week, they were displaying four or five, all in the same row at the top.--GJ

Oops...forgot to ask? Are you a proponent of Family Tree DNA or another testing group? If another, could we talk. I researched the three major companies and learned a LOT about each. I would dearly hate to see people go with a company that won't work best for them. I also have a post on my blog about this, but it is not the details that everyone should know. It is more on how to choose a company. That is, what questions to ask of them, etc. BUT, when asked, I will tell you what I discovered when I asked and what many, many others told me about the companies they used.

Yes, delaying any testing isn't the best for several reasons. Do be sure to read the archives on my blog. There's a lot of good info there for the beginners, although you may not be one. I hope you are also a member of the Family Tree DNA group on GW and of the ISOGG group. If not, I strongly suggest those to to anyone interested in DNA testing, even just those who are curious.

Hi Barbara, Thanks for your welcome. We are considering testing FGS for him to learn as much as we can. His maternal relatives are all deceased so this is our chance to learn as much as possible about his mom's family. He was delighted that he was a U, as that makes him different from the rest of us who are various flavors of H. Much of his family has northern German roots, but those folk are the various male relatives, so it doesn't count. We are stuck in Kansas right now....
