Happy 100th Birthday Stubby #ancestry #familyhistory #Wordpress

My father’s name was Herman Samuel Stubbs. I don’t know what his precise birth weight was, just that he was a large baby. Indeed, he often joked that his mother tried to get her revenge for a long, painful period of labour, by naming him Herman. If that was her goal, she failed, as everybody, including his wife, in-laws, family friends, co-workers, and acquaintances called him Stubby. Today,…

Just a quick check-in:

News

I am down to the last 4,000 marked entries in the merger of the Seibhleain Private Tree. It all depends on the time I can spend on it and I'm hopeful to get through it this weekend. If I'm successful, I will immediately upload it to Ancestry to take advantage of the free Irish Records this weekend.

Since I have done nothing with the D'Anjou Public GEDCOM, I've decided to spend some time reviewing hints this weekend, hopefully filling in more from the Irish records. This shouldn't delay any action on that half of the tree as I wasn't ready to merge any of it anyway.

Notes

I'm close to the point of being able to create the cascading pedigree chart for my paternal great grandmother, finishing the group for the first volume of Son of Swift. I'm hoping to design the first pages this weekend in order to request the ISSN.

I've decided that Son of Swift would be available in print on a very limited basis, in addition to the eJournal. My initial printing will just be for family, after that, only by request. Those requests will have to be made through the aois21 market, located at http://market.aois21.com. The link isn't up yet but will be by the end of the month. A print copy will cost more than the eJournal (priced at $0.99). That price will depend on the printing cost from the printer I decide to use.

That's all for now. Keep checking as I move toward a new period of research and discovery.
