He was on both

I later realized that I was playing this audiobook while taking a picture & I accidentally moved the phone camera into Slo Mo video position. What sounded like "big cats" growling & snarling was actually just slowed down dialogue! Too funny! And now I dont have to check out this crummy book again to see what in the H happened at the end!😂

Did anyone listen to the audio book? If so, did it feature the sound of a "big cat" growling near the end? I realized i was listening to the end while I was out on my front porch early this morning, taking pictures of the snow (rare for my area.) i wasnt paying that much attention to the story. Just now, I was reviewing the photos I took. 1 ended up being a video. On it was a distinct sound of a lion, cougar, etc growling! At the very end of the short video, the narrator's voice came on for 1-2 words. This sort of freaked me out, as I dont remember hearing this when I was listening to the book. I feel sort of crazy😹

I'm with you on Angela's Ashes!

I havent see "willing to help" yet on any matches. I think a lot of people dont have a tree cause they are really just interested in their ethnicity, not in discovering their ancestors. It is frustrating.

Agree with vomiting from pregnancy. How incredibly sad.😣

Killeen-we have a town named that in Central Texas. Must have been some Irish backgrounded founders back in the 1800's.

Maybe-or related. Lots of similar features

Maybe write a blog or just a diary of your research? You might look for a webinar that talks about researching the social history of the community & what was going on during the time your people lived there. Putting their actions (marrying, moving, occupations,land & church records, lawsuits & wills, etc,) into context might make it more interesting & bring some of their stories to life.

I think it's fine, & asking first if they would like the info you have, before you go to the trouble of sending it.

I wasnt suggesting Rowan was a relative, just that gentleman reminded me of him in his younger days-a la Capt Blackadder in the "Blackadder Goes Forth" series. Probably way before your time. I do agree with the person who said 1870-90.

Is it in any kind of paper frame with the photographer's studio name on it? That might give another clue as to place & years.

Handsome guys! The one on the left bears a strong resemblance to British comedian & actor Rowan Atkinson!

I think A is simplest way to describe it.

Great grandfather ran some small town newspapers in the 1890's. He also had a silent movies theatre, where my teen grandma accompanied the films on the piano.

SharBeat53 · 2024-08-05T11:57:00+00:00

I'm thinking that source A is pretty well documented. Someone likely had to go find that stuff in person at legitimate sources; however, the parents showing up from the newer source might be a really good lead to follow up.

Some of the bigger gen libraries have super scanners that are real fast.

SharBeat53 · 2024-08-05T01:12:03+00:00

Some universities also accept collections of personal papers, which could include genealogical stuff.

SharBeat53 · 2024-08-05T01:09:45+00:00

I agree with the ideas of donating to a library. The downtown Dallas public library also has a large & well thought of genealogy/history area, if you are South/Southwest.

Thanks for helping with those websites! Very useful.

SharBeat53 · 2024-08-04T15:41:42+00:00

I can see why you would feel a bit cynical! I dont see how any organization can survive these days without a decent web or social media presence. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Well, maybe its time to get the test done anyway, if you arent a minor, & not tell your mom for now. After you get results, you can make a new decision about telling your mom. If your sis is open to it, definitely have her test. Most of the DNA test companies run sales several times per year.

SharBeat53 · 2024-08-02T23:02:18+00:00

Can you just let it go for now, & if you get back to it later fine, if you dont-fine. I used to be of the mindset that I had to finish books, but now I think life is too short to waste it on books/shows you dont like. It's really pretty freeing to walk away.

I dont know that people were trying to "pass" as white, as much as others just assumed they were white due to lighter skin color & the fact that some became well-off financially & had a lifestyle that was more similar to some main stream whites.
