Oh lord. I missed another live. 🙂 Thank you for the time and effort you put into your videos. I always learn something new!
Thanks Charlotte
Great Video as always. Thanks, and happy New Year! Looking forward to many more!
Happy new year!
Great video, thank you for all your help and information , you’ve helped me quit a bit. Happy New Year !
Same to you!
Thank YOU
Member tree sources are very often other member trees, so you never know where the original source was or where it came from. On the rare occasion I've looked at member trees, almost every time when I've sent a message to the tree owner about how they came by information, they'll tell me "I found it on another family tree". About the only thing I use them for now is to see if they have family members listed that I should go looking for--and there are times the family members don't even belong to the parents they have listed.
Whenever I find someone whose tree is built merely by using another person's tree, I don't even look at them. 95% of the time they are wrong. Family Tree fiction travels faster than truth. These same people are not interested in making corrections when presented with evidence not found on the internet.
I agree. And usually they have no sources other than other family trees. I don’t even look at them, or I use the info as “possibility notes” then try to verify with documentation. If I don’t find any, I just delete the notes and move on. Show me the docs. 🤓 Or even a notation that “this family is based on personal knowledge” would be really helpful.
Yes... member trees are good for clues... and records... but need to be verified. :)
Thank you! So much great info especially how and why to create a floating tree :))
You are so welcome!
Thanks for the info and ideas.
You bet!
From Iowa enjoy your sho
Sounds great
I'm sorry that I missed the live show! I hope to join your channel info level in just a few days. I look forward to it. :)
Awesome. You can always watch the replay.
@@GenealogyTV Thanks. I'm doing that now. :)
Hi, checking in from Arcadia, California
Yay! I'm originally from California. :)
Another great video
I appreciate that
Once again you blow me away with your presentations. I always learn something new. For example, the serial number in the draft card. I never paid attention to that number before. Now I know what the U stands for. Here is my question. If I run across another draft card but instead of a U there is another letter, how do I find out what that letter represents?
Great question. There is an article link by Lisa Louise Cook that is included in the handout with this video... or you can Google it. I don't have it at the moment. She says what those letters mean. I don't know where she got that information (she didn't cite her source), but it is a great article. Thanks for supporting the channel! I appreciate you!
Hi, it's Ruth Bird, this was an amazing video, as always!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Sorry I missed this live Connie and I missed the live zoom today bc for some silly reason, I set my alarm for 18:30 instead of 15:00. at 3pm, I was taking a nap, my bad!
I want to comment on the answer that you provided to Tom Walker. Starting at 44:10, "I'll bet you that if you do all of that work then you go to member trees... have all of your information... 80% of those member trees... they didn't go to that level of research."
I have a second cousin once removed that has not cranked one microfilm roll, has not visited one archive or library... If it's not online, she doesn't have it. There is one item of information that she has provided me that was new. That info is the names of the four unsurviving children of my great grandparents. She got that info bc she interviewed her great uncle who knew the names of his aunts and uncles.
Agreed.
Great video. In regards to research notes, what is the best way to start using them when you have already done alot of research but it isn't organized or well documented? How do you go back? Or is it better to put it into practice and fill in as you can?
Hey Mysti. This is exactly what we are talking about right now in the Genealogy TV Academy. I only work on Research Notes that for the ancestors around my current research question. It's a never ending process of cleaning up as you go. The focus is on the research and adding your findings to your research notes as you go. To learn more about the GTV Academy go here. genealogytv.org/academy/
I always source my research and transcribe every document into the notes section of my FTM program. I don't attach media other than photos, because many courthouses don't allow technology to take photos and/or the documents are too fragile to copy.
Interesting. Love the fact that you transcribe everything into your notes. Well done!
I lived in Laramie…many of those buildings of downtown are still there!
Yay! I hope to go there someday... you know... when time and money is abundant. LOL Thanks for supporting GTV.
Love this Live presentation today,however I have a question for you and wasn't sure where I should post it. I hope you can help me with.it Not sure if you have ever addressed this before, I have relatives in South america who keep the mothers /mothers last name and not their maiden name ,how am I supposed to enter them in my tree,is this considered their maiden name...so confusing. Does it matter as long as I link them to the correct ancestor? Thank you
Always list women with their birth name. You could make a public comment that says they didn't take their husbands name. The search engines are going to look for all names (maiden and married). So you should be good there.
French women (and probably others) kept their birth name their entire life. Children carried the husband's surname.
Thank you
Is there anything you can do about choosing your commercials? I let commercials run often but some people are busy & step away from their phones, the last commercial just ran for 6 min fgs
I have no control over the ads they run. Feel free to skip them if you can. YT is constantly changing how this works.
One of the FamilyTreeMagazine articles says that the order number was entered by the local draft board. I didn't see any further explanation. Could it maybe mean the order they were to be called for service?
I'm guessing it was the order in which they registered... but I have not figured it out yet. Thanks for looking.
@@GenealogyTV You're welcome, Connie. Maybe that is the case. If I ever come across an explanation, I will let you know. Have a blessed day.
Enjoy your show but I do have a question. So many genealogy sites and forms seem to assume that a child is a product of a marriage. I have an ancestor who had a child out of wedlock, how do I show that?
I don't know about the other platforms but on Ancestry you can change the relationships by going to Edit, Edit Relationships, drop down menu to other, partner, friend, single, or unknown. I typically use Unknown. However, on the side panel from the profile view it will always say "Spouse & Children." Here is a video on Fixing Relationships on Ancestry th-cam.com/video/aLqzsRuc0jw/w-d-xo.html
How did you find the map?
Wyoming State Archives Map Collection. You can find that exact map here. spcrphotocollection.wyo.gov/luna/servlet/view/search?QuickSearchA=QuickSearchA&q=1441017355&sort=identifier%2Cdescription&search=Search
Not me with 1000s of sources hyperlinked 😱

My emojis are dark blue. Very annoying and making them harder to make out. Also, Windows 11 deleted two of the emojis I was using to indicate my family, so I’m having to use something similar. Grrrrr!
Humm.... I'm getting different stories from different people depending on their browser too. I'm wondering if is a Chrome thing?
I just got the new version of Ancestry. The emoji colors came back with it.
Alternate facts is NOT available in Canada
only Family Events - Historical insights - Name and gender
Seems like that’s also the case in Australia.
Really? I did not know that.
@@GenealogyTV new features are rolled out in phases to different areas
It would be nice if the process was sped up
I hear you. But if something was not right during the roll out then it only effects a smaller group.
@@GenealogyTV As a programmer I do understand that
BUT after the beta testing and initial rollout to select group/area for testing the implementation it should be made available for every fairly quickly
Yes, my emojis are black and white - hate it!
Bummer
My emojis are also black and white on Google chrome, but for now they are still colored on Firefox.
Interesting
