I just realized why no one was here at #AncestryHour an hour ago. The UK is still on standard time.

Interesting interview with #GeneticGenealogist CeCe Moore. www.youtube.com/watch?v=2tND... Fast forward: 30:10 to 41:15. She was interviewed by a news person covering the Nancy Guthrie case. CeCe clears up the confusion people have about DNA privacy on different #genealogy sites. #AncestryHour

I've been trying to come back to #AncestryHour regularly since the beginning of the year. Never thought I'd be as busy as the past 2 months. Anyone here today? The last post I see was 2 days ago.

Anyone else not been at #AncestryHour and #GenHour because of the Olympics? I just couldn't miss watching figure skating in my ancestors home country. I even made a cake for the occasion. 😋🤩😍🏅

Something I was wondering this week: What's the latest with Reclaim the Records? Last we heard was the exciting news about the New York State death index. Has there been anything else since then? I get their emails and check their BlueSky page, but haven't seen any more news. #GenHour

My genealogy news this week: Finally convinced friend to take the AncestryDNA test. The $39 sale at holidays was a big motivator. Hope this will launch some new research to resolve some brick walls. Especially finding who friend's 3rd GG is & what friend's real surname would have been. #AncestryHour

Happy Tuesday #AncestryHour ! Trying to come back regularly this year. Have missed being here last year. What's on your research agenda this week? Any new discoveries?

Planning to come back to either #AncestryHour or #GenHour regularly this year. Missed them for all of last year. Looks like I missed #AncestryHour today. Note to self: #AncestryHour 2 pm Tuesdays #GenHour 3 pm Thursdays Eventually the times will stick in my head again.

Has #FamilySearch discontinued their record lookup service? I wonder if they just offered this during covid because the link I have no longer works. #Genealogy

To those in the #genealogy community who celebrate...... #MerryChristmas ! Or as my ancestors would say...... Buon Natale! Nollaig Shona! Schöni Wiehnachte!

So excited I won this book during a webinar prize giveaway! Looking forward to cracking it open this weekend. #Genealogy #Books

Typing #Treeverne for one last time. Hope everyone is well tonight. #GenChat

One perk of working on other people's family trees is the places I get to learn about that I might not have been motivated to study if I were to just work on my own tree. Did you know that long before the Czech Republic existed the western half was called Bohemia? #Genealogy #OnePlaceStudies

#GenHour I'm sure most of us are super excited about the big surprise this week. I logged into my #genealogy email yesterday to find the best Christmas present ever! 🎁https://www.newyorkdeathindex.com/search🎁

Looking forward to #GenChat in 45 minutes and learning about the Allen County Public Library #Genealogy Center. www.acpl.lib.in.us/genealogy

Friday’s #genchat should be interesting!

Great news for Wisconsin researchers. The Wisconsin Historical Society is migrating over to a new and more efficient site. See what they currently have here: explore.wishistory.org #Genealogy #WisconsinGenealogy

‪ You pay them if you want them to research your ancestors, but if you want to do your own research on the premises you STILL have to pay them. Absurd.😒 #Genealogy

Has anyone ever heard of this German records site? www.archion.de/de/ They require signing up for a free account before getting access to their German church book records. My friend wants to make sure this site is safe before giving out email. #Genealogy #GermanGenealogy

First we fight and win a four year public records lawsuit, but *then* we really get to work making the data free and usable... *cracks knuckles, goes back to coding*

Thanks for all your fun bunny trail/BSO/squirrel stories tonight! Next time (September 12), we return to our Internet Archive series & talk about the Video & Audio there! #genchat

Back in the 2000s I went off on a bunny trail with my Sicilian last name. An older cousin told me grandpa once said our last name has Japanese roots. I was VERY skeptical until one day I came across a Japanese surname book at the public library. I was shocked to find it in there. #GenChat

Does anyone have tips on finding the town of origin for #IrishAncestors? Censuses only say Ireland & I haven't found any ship records. Even if I did, not sure it would give the town. Ship records from the 1800s give very little info & usually only give just the country. #Genealogy #IrishGenealogy
