We again apologize for the lengthy space between podcasts. We are dealing with conflicting schedules, medical issues, and family obligations. Just like everyone, we are subject to the demands of everyday living. But we hope to get back into a rhythm of recording and posting as health improves and schedules become at least somewhat more manageable.</div>

Our technician (Butch Hibben) has been undergoing some health issues, involving a fair amount of pain (anyone who has had pain knows that it is hard to concentrate when the body aches). As a result, he has not been able to edit our latest recordings of our Genealogy Journeys podcasts. I assure you, that the 4 of us: Gena Philibert-Ortega, Sara Cochran, and Jean and Butch Hibben are still out there, giving lectures far & wide. Let's check the upcoming speaking engagements:<br />

<br />
This engaging speaker is engaged all over! Check out her calendar at <a href="http://philibertfamily.blogspot.com/">http://philibertfamily.blogspot.com</a> and you will find that she is frequently speaking in webinar format (you can see and hear her programs without leaving home!). And travel!?! She has some speaking engagements in Arizona this month, then she'll be speaking at the annual Jamboree (see link to the right), soon after taking off for her annual California speaking tour: Sacramento, Marin County, Ventura County, the Mother Lode country, and more. Well, there's too much to list here because I want to be sure to add her exciting genealogy journey on the high seas: The Founders, Fishermen, and Family History Cruise, taking place on the east coast. Spaces are still available. Autumn will find her back in California for some "local" programs.<br />

Our newest partner, Sara Cochran, is filling up her calendar with a number of programs, not all local. She will be speaking at Jamboree for the first time and is conducting one of her workshops - this one on preserving your photos and memorabilia. It's a hands-on experience, but the space is limited, so signing up sooner rather than later is a very good idea (and early bird registration for the Jamboree Conference ends on April 22). Then she's off to the Pacific Northwest for the NorthWest Genealogy Conference in Arlington, Washington where, again, she will be conducting a workshop as well as giving some lectures. Then it's back to her home turf for local programs, including the town she calls home: Moreno Valley. Check her schedule at <<a href="https://theskeletonwhisperer.com/">https://theskeletonwhisperer.com/</a>><br />

I, too, have a busy schedule this year. I thought there would be some down time, but that's not in the cards. All of us are preparing new programs constantly and I'm no exception. I'll be in Ventura on April 20th, doing 2 presentations, then back to a couple of "gigs" in the Inland Empire. As my colleagues are doing, I, too, am presenting at the Jamboree - including a discussion at the "JamboFree" session on Friday of the conference, discussing becoming a professional genealogist. I am most excited about a program I am working on with the Fresno Genealogical Society on helping local societies grow their membership and maintain a comfortable bank balance. That's in August and, like Sara, I will also be heading to Washington State for the NorthWest conference. We hope to do some recordings there, and also at Jamboree, that will make suitable podcasts, so watch for that. I have a couple of webinars coming up and a lot of local bookings, so I'm not always on the road. My full schedule is at <<a href="http://circlemending.org/calendarvenues/">http://circlemending.org/calendarvenues/</a>><br />

<br />
In spite of his pain, Butch has a class he will be doing on April 16th about "Portable Apps." This is a really interesting approach to organizing and locating your genealogical material and he is trying to make it a hands-on workshop. That will be in Corona at the public library.<br />

We hope that any traveling you will be doing this summer will be paved with events that make great memories. Don't forget to take the camera!<br />

Sara Cochran and Jean Wilcox Hibben discuss museums dealing with specific historical events, including disasters - general and specific.

<span style="font-size: large;">The first in the series covers museums, historical societies, archives, libraries with historic collections, and other types of locations that focus on specific wars and/or the military in general. Much of the first half covers the podcasters' own experiences and impressions of how museums can fulfill a role in family history. A brief mention of virtual museums is also included.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">An emphasis on contacting museums or collections that may be accessible, but require a prior notification for the museum personnel pull out records or information the researcher might not otherwise be aware of. And some museums or archives (e.g., Presidential Libraries) feature travelling exhibits, so prior research before visiting is a good idea and verifying hours, even if they are listed on the website, may prevent a long trip only to find a museum closed for renovation or experiencing reduced hours due to lack of personnel or seasonal closing.</span><br />

Information about the history of animals and people is not new to us in the current years, but pet-ownership dates back centuries. How do you know if your family members had pets? Some thoughts on that are discussed, but a caution about not making assumptions is, of course, included. Also discussed: "animals as food" and not expecting that every family that had animals considered those creatures as pets.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Our passengers on the Genealogy Journeys Cruise 2018 shared some family stories one evening. They are listed here, in this order:</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Tina McKillip</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Melodie Jones</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Phyllis Kaylor</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Sara Cochran</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">It was great fun in spite of the noisy environment (we had no control over the "music" playing in the background).</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Note: unlike others, this whole podcast is free for the listening.

If your ancestor was involved in this occupation, you may find some of the discussion of interest, including the resources used (listed below). Considering the value of lumber to the building of the country, the forestry business was a mainstay of many households (either because of occupation, or use of the product). Some discussion of word origins, forestry mythology, and Roosevelt's programs are included. Consider the references below.</span></span><br />

Kelli will be assisting folks in understanding their DNA results or finding the best DNA company to choose for their specific goals.<br />
<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 11.75pt;">
<b><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Calibri",sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">Grow a DIG</span></b><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Calibri",sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"> is a genetic
genealogy training series. Kelli facilitates the Central Ohio DNA Interest
Group and has a passion for helping genealogists use their DNA matches to break
brick walls in their research. Grow a DIG is designed for genealogical
societies to start a DNA Interest Group (DIG) without a resident expert.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 11.75pt;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Calibri",sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 11.75pt;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Calibri",sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">PowerPoint presentations with recorded audio and handouts
provide an all-inclusive DNA experience. Each presentation is designed to help
take your group from a beginning understanding of genetic genealogy through
more advanced topics as the group progresses. The initial presentation is a
training on how to start at DNA Interest Group. The next four presentations are
about 1.5 hours each and provide beginner, intermediate, and more advanced
topics.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 11.75pt;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Calibri",sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 11.75pt;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Calibri",sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">More advanced topics include many 1-hour presentations on y-DNA,
mt-DNA, x-inheritance patterns, along with specialized topics and tools. It’s a
full year of programming that societies and libraries can use over and over for
years to come. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 11.75pt;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Calibri",sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 11.75pt;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Calibri",sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";">But if you are not local to Kelli, consider <a href="mailto:kbergheimer@gmail.com" target="_blank">contacting her</a> for a webinar program or series that will assist in some of these same ways. Let's face it, DNA was confusing when we took biology way back when . . . while it's now a household world, it's not a lot less confusing. In fact, having a personal guide like Kelli may be just what you need to climb those helix ladders!</span></div>

genealogical organization company. Kelli Bergheimer started the company 2012 to
help genealogists organize their piles and preserve their valuable collections.
Her goal is to encourage organization that allows more room for the “fun stuff”
of genealogy. Why spend time researching just to retread where you’ve already
been? Kelli teaches genealogists to work more efficiently to make progress in
their quest.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

There is no better way to preserve your digital collections and legacy than to
make a book or digital display.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Hi! Gena here and I have recently returned home from Europe. So I figured it would be helpful for my fellow travelers to talk about some of the tips and tricks that I learned on my travels. I get down to some of the basics like packing (I packed everything in a carry-on and guess what, no lost luggage!) and even life's emergencies like getting sick (all the fun things happen to me;)). Below are the resources I discuss in this podcast. Thanks for listening!</span><br />

One of the things I most enjoy about Genealogy Journeys is that I learn about so many different perspectives, products, and services of and from our sponsors. Recently, Sara Cochran had a chance to visit with our sponsor, Deeper Roots, and its owner, KC Reid. I think you will find KC's approach to family history, both teaching it and becoming a working part of it, unique and fun to read. Check out their interview, below:</div>
<br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">QUESTION: KC, Welcome to Genealogy Journeys! We are
thrilled to have you as a sponsor and are excited to have an opportunity to get
to know you a little better.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>When did
you first become interested in family history?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: red; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">ANSWER:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>My mom was pretty sneaky – she would tell me stories that were relevant
to something I was doing or learning as a kid.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>For instance, when I had to invent something for a 6<sup>th</sup>-grade
project, my mother tossed out the little tidbit that my great uncle had been
one of Thomas Edison’s assistants. When my invention was a complete flop, I
took solace in the fact that at least one person in my family had success in
that area!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: red; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">She would do that for other things, too,
like tell me about my grandfather’s childhood during the Great Depression when
I was studying economics, or about ancestors who had fought in a war when I
studied history. She gave me an incredible gift, which I didn’t realize or
appreciate till I was an adult myself – she gave me a personal connection to
the material, making it more meaningful and more memorable for me. And at the
same time, she taught me about her ancestors. I’m pretty sure it is her fault
that I love helping clients understand what their ancestors’ lives were like!
(Love you, Mom!)<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
QUESTION: Your website really focuses on the importance of finding the
legacy our ancestors left behind so that we can understand the impact that it
made on the people around them – and even on living generations. I couldn’t
agree with you more. Would you tell us about a particularly memorable ancestor
you learned about and how it tied the past to the present? <o:p></o:p><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: red; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">ANSWER: One of my clients had an extremely rough
childhood – she petitioned for and received emancipation as a teen and was legally
adopted by her best friend’s parents. Her main question was “what kind of
families could have created parents like mine?”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>I discovered her ancestors were pillars in their community – hugely
involved in community projects to improve agriculture and farming, lots of
volunteer work with organizations like the Salvation Army, and so on. They had
devoted their entire lives to service.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>So
when I handed her the research, I said, “I think you will be surprised by your
people.”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: red; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">She stopped in mid-stride with her mouth
open. She looked at me with a quizzical expression, and said “Wait, I have
people?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I never thought that <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">I </i>had people.”<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>When she realized she had good, honorable,
loving people as her ancestors, suddenly a hole was filled in her heart – a
hole she had not realized until that moment was there.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It was such a moving and humbling experience
for me, to be able to help her make that connection, to fill a void, and enrich
her life. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: red; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">While all our experiences may not be so
dramatic, there is something fulfilling, completing, about finding out who are
people are. I have experienced it for myself, and I love helping others to feel
that, too.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">QUESTION: Sort of on the subject of tying the past to
the present, how about the future?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Your
brochure mentions interviews and preserving family memories for the next
generations. What are some of the methods you use to make sure your clients
leave a legacy their family will treasure and share?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: red; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">ANSWER: <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>One key is making a physical product.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>How many of us have all our pictures in
digital format and never actually look at them?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Having a tangible item – usually a book – to hold, that you can take
with you to the comfy sofa to look at with grandchildren or nieces and nephews,
is a much better way to create memories for them than staring at a screen. One
thing people often forget is that layout can be just as important in creating a
connection as the information on the page.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: red; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Another thing that helps our family stories
to resonate with others is the <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">story.</i>
I love crafting that story by mixing interviews with vignettes on the social
practices of the time, photos, and descriptions of how a particular ancestor
participated in historical events.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: red; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">Tying the ancestor stories to an enduring
family interest transforms information into meaningful connection. One rather
artistically gifted client asked me to make a book for her mother, who was an
art history professor.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I created profiles
of artists and their works from towns that featured in the families’ history –
a teeny town in Russia, Boston, and Baltimore – and created a timeline along
the bottom of key pages showing how the family’s life experiences overlapped
with developments in the art world. This helps the family feel closer to their
ancestors because it ties in with other things that have meaning for them.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It’s almost like helping them to get to know
each other as friends.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">QUESTION: I also noticed that you are able to help
plan a trip to an ancestral homeland.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If
one of our readers was interested in visiting one of these and asked for your
help, what could they expect? Say for instance, they wanted to visit places in
Georgia associated with their ancestors and understand their life and
experience there during the Civil War.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: red; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">ANSWER:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Add a family trip or vacation to that heirloom book we just mentioned,
and you’ll really capture the interest of the younger generations.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>These kinds of projects are so much fun!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I was a travel agent while I was in college,
and I still love travel – it is such an enriching experience. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: red; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">This is just the type of Trace and Travel
requests I get – I’m planning a trip to go somewhere and want to visit places
relevant to my ancestors. For this Georgian Civil War example, stops along the
way would probably include homesteads that still exist, war museums and
battlefields of course, and landmarks related to battles your ancestors
participated in.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>There may be historical
festivals, cemeteries or churches, Civil War reenactments to participate in or
watch… For one client, I found a book published locally that contained their
family in it and recommended a stop at that tiny book store to purchase a copy.
I have even give meal recommendations because the eatery provides some unique
context for the ancestor! <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: red; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">For each stop on the itinerary, I include
how it relates to the ancestor(s), formatted in such a way that you can take it
out while you are there on site and read about your ancestor’s experience there.
I also include hours of operation, contact information, and sometimes even a
recommended time of day to visit each place if it means you’ll be able to catch
a demonstration or special event.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If it is
a by-appointment-only type of affair, I’ll provide information for that
possible experience as well.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">QUESTION: Many of our readers are, as you probably
expect, genealogists themselves and enjoy the research process, which is why
your service of getting help designing a research plan caught my eye.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>When you work with a client on creating a
plan, do you only work with research in progress, reviewing what they’ve done
so far and offer suggestions of where to look next? Or do you also teach the
process of creating a research plan?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: red; font-family: "Times New Roman",serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%;">ANSWER:<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Yes and yes!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I find that people
learn better when they can apply what they learn to something that already has
their interest.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>In that regard, having
research in the works will make it easier to learn for most people, and it is
easier for me to develop specific recommendations. But you don’t have to have a
specific project to learn how to build a research plan. How to create a
research plan is also something I can help our fellow genealogists learn.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "&quot" , serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">It was on a Monday evening around 8pm
that John Boeren received an email from an American couple. Their question was
simple but challenging: “In two weeks we travel from the United States to the
Netherlands and we want to visit some locations where our ancestors lived, can
you help us?” John has received emails like that many times. In the last few
years more and more people from the United States, Canada or Australia plan a
trip to the Netherlands to follow in their ancestor’s footsteps. They ask
Antecedentia, John’s genealogy business, for help.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "&quot" , serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">John and his clients went on a field
trip two weeks later. He was able to show them the exact spots where their
forefathers once lived. One of them owned several houses, a soap factory and a
large warehouse. A quite wealthy family. His clients were surprised. At the end
of the day he took a picture of the couple standing in front of their
ancestor’s former carpentry workshop, a large 18<sup>th</sup> century corner
house in a picturesque little town.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "&quot" , serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">Two weeks later, when his clients were
back in the United States, he received an email: “Working with you was a great
pleasure and a fine learning experience. We discovered many things we did not
expect, several very happy surprises. You worked quickly because we had
contacted you with very little notice. Your research was solid and gave us many
leads to continue to follow. Your guide work was also top-notch. We have worked
with other genealogical guides in Europe and your work was up with the best.
You are very knowledgeable about history of the country and region, and were a
good teacher for the entire trip we had with you.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "&quot" , serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">Joining clients on a journey like this
gives John a lot of pleasure. He wants them to have a special experience, to see
the link between genealogy, cultural heritage and identity. “If you really want
to connect people to their heritage, you need to do more than only talk or
write about it. The best way is to show them what is still left of their past.
This way they really feel who they are and where they come from.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "&quot" , serif; font-size: 13.5pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "&quot" , serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">Beside these heritage trips, John’s business
also provides the more basic or traditional genealogy services. Many overseas
clients with Dutch ancestors ask him to research their family history. With 30
years of experience as a genealogist in the Netherlands, John knows very well
where to look for records. Both online in different databases and onsite in
local and regional archives. His research reports not only show pedigree charts
or family trees, but also give transcriptions and translations of the
documents. Something his clients really appreciate, because they often have no
knowledge of the Dutch language.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal;">
<span style="font-family: "&quot" , serif; font-size: 13.5pt;">Because of his 30th anniversary as a
genealogist, John offers all participants of the 2018 Genealogy Journeys Cruise
a one-time discount of 30%! You can reach John through his website: <span class="MsoHyperlink"><a href="http://www.findmydutchancestors.com/">www.findmydutchancestors.com</a></span>.

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">Your grandmother’s wedding. Your dad’s college
graduation. The Welcome Home party for your nephew. The family heritage trip
you took with your daughter to Italy. These are the extraordinary moments that
have created your life and your family’s history. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">So imagine how devastated you’d feel if a severe
storm, fire or burglary caused the photos from these beloved times to be lost
forever. West Coast Photo Scanning ensures these treasured memories will last a
lifetime with their custom designed photo books and photo archiving services.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">With 25 years of experience as a graphic artist and
13 years dedicated to photo book design, West Coast Photo Scanning owner
Melodie Jones has made an art form out of preserving the past. Well known for
being Orange County’s premiere “scrapbooker-for-hire”, Melodie’s sought after photo
expertise has awarded her countless opportunities to bring the past back to
beautiful life.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<span style="font-family: "times" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">One
delighted client, Louise V. of Santa Ana, CA, will forever be grateful to
Melodie for her diligent work in recreating a large and very detailed family
photo album. “</span><span lang="EN" style="font-family: "times" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">Many of the photos
were old black-and-whites… and some of the pages had small writing or
information right to the edge of the page,” says Louise. “To say that it was
challenging is an understatement. I don't know if anyone else would have hung
in there, worked diligently to get every page perfect, and kept a positive
attitude in the process. Melodie is a gem—I would never consider using anyone
else for my photo scanning or scrapbook design needs.” <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto;">
<span lang="EN" style="font-family: "times" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">But you don’t need an existing photo album to
utilize Melodie’s highly creative services. In fact, most of West Coast Photo
Scanning customers come with nothing more than an old shoebox filled with years
of aging photos. Of course, these customers had always meant to organize the
old Polaroids, snap shots and black-and-whites. They knew they deserved to be honored
and displayed. After all, as family treasures these photos would bring so much
joy to their home… <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">But life always seemed to get in the way. And
properly arranging the photos took time and an artistic eye they didn’t have.
It all seemed a bit overwhelming. So their photos sat untouched and unloved,
year after year after year.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-family: "times" , serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">“Unfortunately, time causes all photos to fade and
deteriorate. Having your photos professionally scanned will safeguard them for your
children, your grandchildren, and even your great grandchildren to cherish and
enjoy,” explains Melodie.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

I think you will find Jeanette Piecznski's responses both interesting and intriguing (she will be involved in some of our on-ship benefits for the November cruise).<br />

QUESTION: I had the pleasure of meeting GeneaCreations at
RootsTech 2018 (click on image above)!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If you, dear reader,
have ever attended RootsTech then you may have guess that we didn’t have a lot
of time to chat and get to know each other, so I’m very excited to have the
opportunity to do so now.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>First though, Jeannette,
have you had a chance to catch your breath from the conference?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Every time I walked by the booth you were
pretty busy, I hope it was a grand success for you!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
ANSWER: Thanks! It was wonderful success. I was a presenter
a couple years ago at RootsTech, so I had a little bit of an idea on how to
prepare. I have a booths at NGS and FGS. This year went to Burbank Jamboree.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I also go to genealogical societies’ annual
conferences. I have custom order forms now by the type of shirt customers would
like. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>That helps a lot!<o:p></o:p></div>

QUESTION: Great!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Thanks for sharing our flyers with your visitors, by the way.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>They sure did seem to fly off the table – or
maybe I should say, sail away!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>I was
really taken by the variety of products you had to<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>offer, everything from door magnets to charm
bracelets and genealogy focused shirts.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
ANSWER: My shirts are a big hit!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>People asked me how I came up with the idea.
As I have attended many conferences over the years, they always have shirts that
are unisex. I wanted something pretty. I have always loved my rhinestone
shirts, so I decided to come up with designs for genealogy. I make rhinestone
shirts that are sold in gift shops. My genealogy dresses were new for RootsTech
and I think these are going to be very popular.<o:p></o:p></div>

QUESTION: I have to admit, I’m really pleased with my
“Genealogist Happily Lost at Sea” door magnet.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>It will definitely be getting packed in my bag this coming
November.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>But we should probably get
down to business.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>What inspired you to
begin GeneaCreations?<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
ANSWER: I’m so happy you like your magnet! My mom and I took
a Baltic cruise, and this was her idea. She brought the Humane Society magnets
to put on our stateroom door and it made it easy to find our room.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Other people talked to us about the door and
a common interest. I thought with the popularity of genealogy cruises, there
might be an interest in decorating their door and be able to use on their
fridge, desk or cabinet. A Command Strip works great to hang it on other places
too.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Many years ago, Elizabeth Shown Mills mentioned in her
presentation about genealogy work being a 3-legged stool. I gave that some
thought and decided on my 3-legged stool a little differently than what she
discussed. I accept some clients, historical sewing and design for productions,
and GeneaCreations. Prior to GeneaCreations, to build the clients to sew for
movies and theaters I needed to be a sutler at reenactments. Movie Scouts
always attend reenactments. Being in this type of venue requires period-correct
showing: Beating rebar through rocky soil to setting wooden posts and a heavy
canvas tarp, along with being exposed to the weather.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Although I still enjoy attending
reenactments, I rarely go to the extreme to display. I found that I can take
many of the ideas I had as a sutler to adapt to my other love of genealogy. So
it is through my combined 3-legged stool that you might find me dressed in a
historical gown or designing a new bling shirt for the next conference.<o:p></o:p></div>

QUESTION: Your website showcases several types of shirts
with sayings and pictures; available embroidered on, printed, or added as
bling. There’s a number of sayings and images listed and your embroidered
shirts say you have thousands of images you add.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>With all this selection, I imagine the
problem most people have is picking between favorites! For those that aren’t
finding the exact shirt they want, though, do you accept custom requests? If
so, about how long do those take to receive?<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
ANSWER: Absolutely!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>For custom orders, I try to listen to what they like or have in mind and
send suggestions based on what will work for the type fabric and how items will
stitch or press on that type item. I try to only send 2-3 concepts and if they
don’t see what catches their eye, I send a couple more. I am working toward 3-4
weeks for custom orders. But for societies I recommend 6 weeks so they have
time to review a picture then a sample. I will also accept customer’s items to
add the embroidery, rhinestones or litho print too, as well. But there are
specifications for those options.<o:p></o:p></div>

QUESTION: I noticed that GeneaCreations is “By a Court
Research.” Is this another business you own?<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>Would you tell us a little about it? <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
ANSWER: Yes, A Court Research was the 1<sup>st</sup> leg. It
is court research, I frequent courthouses primarily in Texas, sometimes at
Clayton Library. Of course, the occasional cemetery. I enjoy working on
applicant’s SAR paperwork and heirships.<o:p></o:p></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
QUESTION: <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>“When it
comes to genealogy research, the answer to one question leads to two more questions.”
The “about us” section of A Court Research certainly hits the nail on the head
there! Could you give us an example of how an answer to a question created more
questions, taking your research into a completely unexpected direction? <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
ANSWER: When I approach a genealogy issue, I try not to
focus on what I think the pattern is. Instead I look at all the possibilities.
Many times, when we research if we think we know and follow that path, we
forget there are many other things that could happen. If we stay so focused on
the one path, we can easily miss a very important clue. Just as in locating
descendants to provide a DNA sample. The information may all fall among the
norm but taking another step at other possibilities reflects that the child
ended up from a previous encounter and not the current marriage partners. Using
this person for a DNA test would make the results questionable. <o:p></o:p></div>

<br />
Usually, on the 2nd and 4th Sundays we present new podcasts dealing with a variety of Social History topics. While we have recorded the next two podcasts, they have yet to be edited (believe me, you want us to do that task), and that is primarily because my husband and our audio tech, Butch, has been dealing with some health issues and we don't trust him just yet to handle the editing equipment (after all, we neither want us to sound like chipmunks, nor do we want you to be subjected to our unrehearsed bursts of laughter, coughing, or other inappropriate noises). So we are postponing this next podcast for at least a week.<br />
<br />
Just to encourage you to check back, our next 2 posts are linked in subject matter: Illegal alcohol. Part 1: Moonshining; Part 2: Bootlegging. Both of these activities make up part of the history of America (and other countries, in one way or another), so you don't want to miss our stories, recipes (recipes? yes, recipes!), and language education. Meanwhile, check the next post about another one of our esteemed Genealogy Journeys sponsors.<br />
<br />
Have a happy 4th of July!!<br />
<br />

If your ancestors took to any water sports, it is likely that they enjoyed (or didn't enjoy) the various types of garments that are discussed on the podcast as well as on the websites shared below.</span><br />

<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Jean's mother's family consisted of a number of people who weren't shy when it came to time in the water (possibly because of having a cottage on a lake - Beaver Lake, near Hartland, Wisconsin), and it seems someone was always there with a camera to capture the fun. Sadly, the photographers were not always as careful (or the cameras were not the latest options), and some of the photos are rather blurry, but you can still get an idea about what the costuming looked like. </span><br />
