I'm writing historical fiction this time around. <br /><br />I'm pretty scientific about writing. I have it calculated out so that if I write about 2,000 words per day, I will reach the minimum goal of 50,000 in less than 30 days. It is only day 3 and I'm at 9,212 words as of this writing. That's good since I know my cousin is flying in from California and I have some travelling to do myself.<br /><br />You can follow my word count online at <a href="http://www.nanowrimo.org/eng/user/187200">NaNoWrimo</a>.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4727991574622710167-3620579723474950164?l=judyrosellaedwards.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>JudyRosellahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13756943073494212870noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4727991574622710167.post-30522995094673412502008-10-24T19:06:00.001-05:002008-10-24T19:10:07.152-05:00Looking Into 1860 U.S. Federal Census Records<img src="https://store5.esellerate.net/store/img/usr/PUB78523819/SKU4104175047/LookingInto1860CensusCOVER.jpg"><br /><br />Many of the relationships we spend hours searching for are missing from the typed or digitized census information we use every day.

She had traveled quite a distance and spent hours searching the local courthouse records for the death certificate to no avail.<br /><br />There are plenty of reasons why researchers run into such a dilemma. But here is one that is so simple we often overlook it.<br /><br />The death certificate is filed in the county or parish where the person died.<br /><br />It sounds simple enough, right? But it reminds me of a church that protested loudly when the city told them they could not put their church's sign up at the edge of town like all the other churches. They asked the wrong question. The city told them "they" could not put up the sign -- because, for insurance reasons, a city employee needed to put the sign up.<br /><br />Let's look at this again.<br /><br />The death certificate is filed in the county or parish where the person died.<br /><br />If a person died, even across the county line from where they lived, the death certificate would not be filed in the county where they resided. So, think about it. If your ancestor from Tupelo, Mississippi, died after being run over by a streetcar while visiting the Columbia Exposition on vacation in Chicago, their death certificate would be in Cook County, Illinois, instead of Lee County, Mississippi.<br /><br />Perhaps the ancestor's obituary would provide a lead in locating the death certificate. Did they die in a hospital in another county? Did they live in a rural area that was actually in a different county than you thought? Did they live in a location that became part of a different county at some point in time?<br /><br />There are lots of angles to consider. But, most of all, remember that the death certificate is unrelated to the last known place of residence.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4727991574622710167-4375634020105268050?l=judyrosellaedwards.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>JudyRosellahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13756943073494212870noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4727991574622710167.post-54810432288335632652008-09-17T09:18:00.005-05:002008-09-17T09:44:04.941-05:00Looking INTO 1860 U.S. Federal Census Records<a href="http://www.judyrosellaedwards.com/images/LookingInto1860CensusCOVERs.jpg"><img style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 200px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://www.judyrosellaedwards.com/images/LookingInto1860CensusCOVERs.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>There is no such thing as the census.

The word gazetteer is a charming old one that does not seem to have much meaning for most people. Gazetteers are maps with a whole lot more data. The first gazetteers probably appeared before the first century b.c. Early gazetteers were maps that focused on sources of local pride.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p> <p style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:-1;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%;">I love gazetteers and have several. They are reasonably priced and genealogists don’t need to shy away from buying used ones since we are not as interested in what is new. I don’t hesitate to scribble on my gazetteers marking the local sources of pride as they relate to my family. I color code them according to where my family lived and worked. I use them to mark “lost” graveyards.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p> <p style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:-1;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%;">The newer editions include GPS. I use GPS to find these lost graveyards and the old family farms. But I like jotting notes on a print copy of the GPS. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p> <p style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:-1;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%;">As a genealogist I use them for so much more than maps! Of course, if you do travel to do genealogical research it is fun to know what there is to do along the way. Many of those “things to do” are related to your family’s history as well.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p> <p style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:-1;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%;">So what is unique about the gazetteers? All of the above. But let me point out what’s unique about my favorite gazetteers and you’ll probably see why you want them.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p> <p style="font-family: Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:-1;"><span style="font-size: 10pt; line-height: 115%;">My personal favorite are the DeLorme gazetteers.

It is evidence that my father's good intentions far exceeded his woodworking ability.<br /><br />This little loom is about 8.5" x 11" and I have actually woven little bits of cloth on it.<br /><br />I have lived in half a dozen different states and have somehow managed to hang onto this little loom.<br /><br />A number of years ago I bought a gorgeous Schacht Tapestry Loom. It sat in a corner of the basement, still in its original packaging, until a few months ago.<br /><br />I finally got it out and realized that without a floor stand it really wasn't possible for me to use it. I didn't have enough table space anyplace. Plus, it is so big it has a tendency to fall over. Just when I would start to warp it, it would tip over and I would once again find myself in a tangle of threads.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_4a8yiZsuXgI/R3mM5KAhrnI/AAAAAAAAABY/30mc1HphkTk/s1600-h/newloom.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer; width: 170px; height: 216px;" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_4a8yiZsuXgI/R3mM5KAhrnI/AAAAAAAAABY/30mc1HphkTk/s200/newloom.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5150302562441866866" border="0" /></a>So my Festivus present to myself was the floor stand which actually cost more than the loom did, even tho I found it relatively cheap at the Dick Blick Art Materials factory outlet in Galesburg.<br /><br />The loom looks so beautiful on the trestle stand. And it is so large. It dwarfs the fireplace.<br /><br />I'll need to move it. I haven't even warped it yet and the cat-of-many-names is already fascinated by it! Her name is actually Huitaca but she also goes by Little Cat, Treasure, Precious, Gift, Fluff-Butt and Baby Cat, being the youngest of our four felines.<br /><br />I guess now that the world knows I have it put together I feel obligated to learn how to actually weave something.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4727991574622710167-5440170406063195234?l=judyrosellaedwards.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>JudyRosellahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13756943073494212870noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4727991574622710167.post-28983506099870942602007-12-31T16:41:00.000-06:002007-12-31T16:42:32.751-06:002008 New Year's ResolutionsNote to self: try to keep at least one!<br /><br /><ul><li>To work on becoming a Certified Laughter Leader </li><li>To learn to weave</li><li>To reduce the amount of STUFF that I have</li></ul><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4727991574622710167-2898350609987094260?l=judyrosellaedwards.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>JudyRosellahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13756943073494212870noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4727991574622710167.post-43782485446275818192007-12-31T02:17:00.000-06:002007-12-31T02:22:55.177-06:00I Can Do ThisJeff has been urging me to write Moodle curriculum for... well, a really long time. I do a lot of things for a living but my degree is actually in Instructional Systems Technology so Moodle really does make sense for me.<br /><br />I decided to call my Moodle "<a href="http://judyrosellaedwards.com/training/">I Can Do This</a>." The first "course" is online. Its a free "Computer Basics" course. This course came out of computer workshops I teach. I am always kinda stunned at how some really experienced computer users don't know some of the most basic techniques.<br /><br />I am developing a training module for genealogy software and started it off with this lesson. Then I realized I would probably use this as the first lesson for EVERYTHING I want to teach. It seemed natural to give it away for free. After all, everyone likes "free."<br /><br />I really need to get back to cleaning up my own website. It looks like crap and part of it doesn't even load.<br /><br />I need to clone myself.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4727991574622710167-4378248544627581819?l=judyrosellaedwards.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>JudyRosellahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13756943073494212870noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4727991574622710167.post-38990840459686525992007-11-02T08:37:00.000-05:002007-11-02T09:19:52.956-05:00Lo-Tech Nano<span style="font-size:85%;"><br /><span style="font-family:georgia;">My old, old, old workhorse of a computer is about to die. I need it for work. All my work. For prepping for computer workshops I teach as well as for writing and web design. And then there is the hobby stuff. And <a href="http://www.nanowrimo.org/">NanoWrimo</a>.</span><br /><br /><a style="font-family: georgia;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://judyrosellaedwards.com/images/palm.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 200px;" src="http://judyrosellaedwards.com/images/palm.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><span style="font-family:georgia;">Solution? My good old Palm V someone gave me years ago with an external keyboard. Hey, this thing actually works! I'll probably use it a lot more in the future for other things.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-family:georgia;">Folded up, the keyboard is not much larger than the Palm V. This is how it looks opened out. Once you get used to the taller screen, it actually shows quite a bit of text. I don't even use word processing software with it.<br /><br />I use the built-in Memo feature. I name the memos in sequential order so I know the scene order. The memos get uploaded to the PC via a routine HotSync and then I cut and paste into Word. I cut-and-paste fast so it ain't no thang.</span> I could spend money on software to streamline that but I'm trying to do this on the cheap.<br /><br />If I could find a Dana or Neo dirtcheap on eBay, I might consider it sometime. But this works for now.<br /></span><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4727991574622710167-3899084045968652599?l=judyrosellaedwards.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>JudyRosellahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13756943073494212870noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4727991574622710167.post-79070910590857877872007-10-30T21:49:00.000-05:002007-10-30T21:57:28.122-05:00Gearing up for NanoWrimo<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms; color: rgb(153, 51, 153);font-size:85%;" >I am down to 26 hours until time to start writing for NanoWrimo.<br /><br />In the last 26 hours, I have checked "Riders of the Purple Sage" out of the library and bought a copy of "Pay It Foward" and a cd by </span><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms; color: rgb(153, 51, 153);font-family:verdana,arial,helvetica;font-size:85%;" > South Side Cindy & The Slip-Tones </span><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms; color: rgb(153, 51, 153);font-size:85%;" >online.
