A number of resources exist which can help you research your family heritage. If
you're lucky, one of the best resources is close at hand: your own family.
Stories passed down from generation to generation contain nuggets of information
that can help you begin your search. Names of your parents and grandparents, and
their parents, can take you back three or four generations. Don't ignore spouses
of family relatives; not only do their personal stories add to the flavor of
family history, sometimes the spouse of a family member - particularly the wife
of a male relative - knows more about your family's history than the relative
does.
Interview your family members to see what they know about family history. The
older members in particular may have knowledge of your family tree for
generations, as well as what these ancestors did for a living, where they lived,
when and how they died, and personal stories they're more than willing to hand
down to another generation. If you have birth or death certificates among family
records, you're in luck; birth certificates will contain a birth date, name of
parents, and location of birth. The place of birth in particular will give you a
clue as to where to look for further information.
Be aware that family recollections can be wrong. A couple personal experiences:
My middle name is May, which was given to me in honor of my father's aunt who
raised him. My parents ended up being upset when they found out later that my
aunt's name wasn't May, it was really Mary. But it doesn't stop there: while I
was researching my aunt's death I came across her obituary in the local
newspaper, and it turns out her name wasn't May or Mary - it was Ruth!
Meanwhile, on my mother's side of the family, it was well known that her
grandfather's name was Francis Isaac Barrott, that he had lived and died in
Worcester, Massachusetts, and that he had actually worked as a maintenance man
at City Hall. I contacted the records department of the city of Worcester
looking for any records of Francis Isaac Barrott, and found nothing. Later, I
obtained my mother's father's death certificate (he had died at the relatively
young age of 37) and discovered that his father had signed his own son's death
certificate - as "Frank R. Barrott".
Once you've gleaned as much as you can from living relatives, it's time to
access public records. Birth and death records, deeds, and military records are
among those available for research, as are U.S. Census records, from the years
1790 up to 1930 (by law, census records cannot be released to the public for 75
years). When searching census records, start with the latest census and move
backward; this way you may be able to track the changes in family circumstances
back through the years.
Searching public records has become a lot easier since the introduction of the
Internet. A popular software program available online, Ancestry.com, allows you
to build your family tree and search U.S. Census databases and other public
records.
A lot of books are available to help you on your family search. One of the best
is Genealogy 101: How to Trace Your Family's History and Heritage, by Barbara
Renick in association with the National Genealogical Society (Rutledge Hill
Press, 2003). Renick offers an organized approach to genealogical research that
will save you a lot of false starts.
If you've been thinking for a while about beginning a serious search into your
family's background, don't put it off. Your best resource, your older family
members, is a finite resource. Once they pass on, their knowledge is gone
forever.

Hi ddmicks,

I'm disappointed that this ad would be allowed because it charges for
information that is free on other sites.

Linda

This one would be permitted as it deals with another venue to search for
ancestors, the same as if a post had been made that had to deal with Ancestry
dot com.
Some times those fairly new to genealogy research are not aware of all the
places that can be searched.
Not all members may be aware that those records exist and are available to be
searched, and just may help to knock down a few brick walls that we all seem to
come up against at times.
In the links sections there are many others listed as well. I hope the poster
will add this one to that section as well, as it can and will get buried on the
message pages.

If you look at the home page, you will see that any ads not dealing directly
with geneology will be removed.

I trust that answers your question.

Linda the short answer is no.  I'm not sure how it slipped through.  It has an
air of deceit with the strange name.  Sometimes a member may recommend a site
that they have had luck with but advertising is not allowed.  Tom

Learning more about the past and one's ancestors is more popular
today than ever before. Millions of people every year search the
internet hoping to learn more about genealogy and the history of
their own families. But if you're new to the genealogy research
scene, then you might not have a good idea what you're really looking
for. After all, it's not as if you can find what you're looking for
by simply using a regular internet search engine. But by using an
online public records search to locate cemetery records, you can
start your search into your family's past using a tool that's as easy
to operate as an internet search engine.
Cemetery records are a key part to unlocking the history of your
ancestors. Competent genealogy researchers know that cemetery records
can provide important information that can open doors to other family
documents. When you find the grave of an ancestor, you find a real
monument to your family and their history, and cemetery records are
the perfect way to find those ancestral burial grounds. Plu

Learning more about the past and one's ancestors is more popular today than ever
before. Millions of people every year search the internet hoping to learn more
about genealogy and the history of their own families. But if you're new to the
genealogy research scene, then you might not have a good idea what you're really
looking for. After all, it's not as if you can find what you're looking for by
simply using a regular internet search engine. But by using an online public
records search to locate cemetery records, you can start your search into your
family's past using a tool that's as easy to operate as an internet search
engine.
Cemetery records are a key part to unlocking the history of your ancestors.
Competent genealogy researchers know that cemetery records can provide important
information that can open doors to other family documents. When you find the
grave of an ancestor, you find a real monument to your family and their history,
and cemetery records are the perfect way to find those ancestral burial grounds.
Plus, when you find the grave of one ancestor, it's likely you'll also find the
resting place of others from the same family, which can open the door to even
more genealogy research.
Perhaps the best way to find cemetery records is to use an online public records
search. Online public records search work exactly the same as internet search
engines. The only difference is that online public record searches are
specifically geared towards finding all kinds of public records information. The
best public records searches make use of multiple databases to provide access to
an astronomical number of individual public records. That means that you can

Seeking more details about - Macauley "Polly"/"Colly" Davis [and her maternal
ancestors] -- She was born: 13 Feb 1776, Honea Path, Anderson Co. SC / died: 17
oct 1843, Honea Path Anderson Co., South Carolina -- and married: William
Franklin Clinkscales. -- [She is my third great-grandmother]

Macauley/"Polly"/"Colly" is a popular woman's name for this maternal line - here
are just few to show what a 'tangle' I am trying to sort out:

1) Her mother was Nancy Macauley Wright - b: ?/ d: ? -- married: William Dale
Davis in Frederick County, Maryland (18 Aug 1787).
[My maternal fourth great-grandmother]

2) Her daughter was Macauley Clinkscales - b: who married: (?)

3) She had a niece named Macauley "Polly"/"Colly" Davis (B: ?/D?)
[She is my cousin 4 times removed].

AND

4) A granddaughter - Macauley Elizabeth Davis - b: 1835 in Anderson Co. SC; d:
1909 in Alabama --  who married: (abt. 1 Jul 1855) William Walter/Walton Davis -
b: 1831 in Armuchee, Walker County, Georgia; d: 1913, in Vincent, Alabama). This
lady is one of my Great Aunts.

NO further details can I find before Nancy Macauley Wright -- she was born/died
in South Carolina. The areas she lived in included these family surname as
neighbors: MacCalla/McCalla; McCullough, and others with similar phonetic
sounds. ANY information related to one or more of these women would greatly
appreciated.

Thank you!

If you want to create your family tree, but do not know where to start, family
tree templates can get you started on your genealogical adventure. By giving you
a pre-designed family tree that you can fill in, you can easily assemble your
chart of lineage and, while doing so, learn the proper format for family trees.
Family tree templates take the form of blank family trees that can be populated
with the names of the people in your immediate and extended family. Often, these
templates will include instructions that will explain how to fill in each
rectangle with whose name and with what information. All you need to do is
follow the directions and with family tree templates, you can have an impressive
chart of your familial relationships in no time.
By providing you with instructions, format, and explanations of what everything
means family tree templates can help you learn how family trees are made,
assembled, and organized. Thus, if you want to continue your exploration of
genealogy, you will have that much more understanding of what a family tree is,
how it works, and how you can start building your own from scratch, if you so
desire. Or you can simply use more family tree templates when you want to expand
your genealogy beyond the scope of your current template. Some templates are
even designed to be easily added onto previous templates, making it that much
easier to expand your family tree into more and more distant relations.
Family tree templates can be easily found and are usually fairly inexpensive.
Book stores and some office supply stores usually carry them, and there are more
than a few web sites that sell genealogy supplies, including family tree
templates. With just a little bit of searching, you can start your adventure
into your ancestry with these easy to use aids that will ensure you are doing
everything correctly.
If you want to learn more about yourself by learning about your ancestors, your
investigations will be much easier to organize and understand with a family
tree. And if you want a little help when you first start building a family tree,
family tree templates can give you the boost you need. Easy to find, easy to
use, and easy to understand, they are an invaluable tool for the beginning
genealogist who wants to see just how deep and how broad a family tree can
become.

I'm showcasing my new genealogy tutorial. :)

http://originstutorial.blogspot.com/

Resist the urge to race into the dark distant past too quickly. Tracing your
family tree is, essentially, an exercise in record keeping. Any mistakes made at
these early stages may result in many hours of research into the wrong tree!
Most people choose, initially, to trace a particular line. In many cases this is
the paternal line as this is where you inherited your surname. Having exhausted
this line you may then return to start on a different line. There's no hard and
fast rule for this decision as you will have your own interest in a particular
branch of the family.
Start at home
Before launching into public records and internet searches take some time to
record the details of what you already know of your family.
For the moment, keep it simple. On a (large) piece of paper, note down; Names,
relationship; Dates and places of; birth; christening; marriage; death;
Residences; Occupation and places of work; Military service
Most of us will be able to record our recent family history up to our
grandparents. Even at this early stage you will usually be surprised to discover
how little you actually know about these more immediate members of the family.
e.g. What was Gran's maiden name? Did she have brothers / sisters?, etc, etc.
Oral History
Certificates can only tell part of the rich history of your family. These
official documents record the statistical information required by law. The real
'history' of your family comes down generations through the stories and letters
of our forebears.
Every family historian, myself included, will tell with regret at missing the
opportunity to actually speak to 'Uncle Johnny'. When you speak to relatives
make sure and get the stories. Unlike 'Uncle Johnny', the official records will
be available to inspect for decades to come...
Do not underestimate the value in this type of research. My grandmother was born
in 1907 and had very clear memories of elderly relatives whom she remembered
from childhood. I remember discussing these individuals with her in the early
1990's and marvelling at the fact that we were talking about people born some
140 years earlier through first hand recollections!
When meeting relatives try and be specific with your questions;
What regiment did you / he / she serve with? Where did you / he / she go to
school? How many brothers / sisters did you / he / she have? This part of the
research can be very rewarding and the perfect excuse to contact family members
with whom you've 'lost touch'. Remember though, some people (particularly older
relatives) may not want to discuss this, especially where there may have been
illegitimacy, divorce or other 'sensitive' situations, so tread carefully.
Select a single surname, individual, or family with which to begin. Focusing
your family history search helps keep your research on track, and reduces the
chance of missing important details due to sensory overload. As much as you
might want to, you can't do it all at once.

surnames of families that they married into---families tended to marry w/in the
same groups of families and many families migrated as a unit.  Some of the
surnames that are associated w/my William Ransom Davis are:  Pickens, Calhoun

remained in SC as Wm. Ransom Davis' son, John Norvelle Davis who married Julia

Hope this helps.
