John JUDGE – Ohio Trip 2021 (Ancestor 114)
Copyright Statement NOTE: Researched surnames are in ALL CAPS, and full names are in boldface type on first use. In a recent text to my friend and fellow genealogist Chris Mosher, I asked him what I should write about next and gave him four options. His reply: “Maybe the John Judge trip. It’s been 4 years, right?” Me: “3.5.” We both laughed. We all know I’m slow. Thanks for rubbing it in,…
More Veteran Ancestors - 52 Ancestors (Ancestors 8, 32, 114, 248, and 506)

I have researched the military service of Charles William TROUTMAN, Elias T. TRAUTMAN, and John JUDGE enough to be confident. Robert…

This article is a follow-up to “Were Mary (WHITAKER) JOHNSON and Patience (WHITAKER) MARLOW Sisters?” In it, I laid out some circumstantial evidence that has led me to believe, besides the surname, that Patience WHITAKER and Mary WHITAKER were related and even may have been sisters. You can review that short article for a refresher. Also, please see the endnotes [a] and [b] at the bottom of this…

Lately, I’ve been writing a few articles to go along with the weekly suggested themes of the 52 Ancestors Challenge. It’s what got me started with this blog in January 2014* during Amy Johnson Crow’s first year of the challenge.
I couldn’t think of what to write on this week’s theme of adventure. All that came to mind were danger and travels. It seemed like there should be more to it than that.…

Organizing Your Genealogy Contacts
I was chatting with a friend and fellow genealogist when I typed, “I really should make a spreadsheet of all my contacts with people for the different families.” Her response, “That’s a great idea!!” Then she encouraged me to write an article about that, so here it is, and the spreadsheet has begun. I doubt this is a novel topic, but this is my idea.

If you’ve been studying genetic genealogy for a bit, you may understand X DNA, but I’ll give a summation here.
X DNA is different from regular autosomal DNA. The 23rd chromosomal pair contains the sex chromosomes – those which determine the biological gender of the child. In all but rare cases, biological females have two X…
