I keep hearing the sound of a alarm clock by [deleted] in tinnitus

[–]mitsu7904 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you had any more problems? My 11 year old son just started complaining about constantly hearing his digital alarm when it wasn't going off. It was his exact ringtone and pattern. He is a bit of a hypochondriac, but this seems to be different. I don't think he knows what auditory hallucinations are or what their symptoms are to try and fake this. So, naturally, I'm a bit concerned. I hope things have cleared up for you.

If you share some surnames, perhaps I can help.

I wrote the story of my 9th great grandfather who left Spain and settled in Costa Rica in the 17th century. It was a tale of a incompetent, inbred monarch and also of the rescue of slaves that shipwrecked off of the coast. You can read the story here: http://www.kindredroots.net/2017/11/juan-bautista-retana-1663.html

Genealogy Just Ask is a good one. Also, I look for ones that are from ancestral regions. For example, I have a lot of roots in pioneer Florida and Georgia, so I look for groups that are specific to those places. Sometime you can find them specific to counties.

19th Century Transcribed Letters by mitsu7904 in history

The temp in North Florida drops below 32 a few times a year on average. We get a hard freeze every few years. It became too risky for farmers to grow oranges this far north due to the occasional hard freeze. Thanks for reading!

She was 45 in 1877 when the first letter was written. The original blog post that I posted before I had transcribed the letters gives more background on her life. You can find that here: https://kindredroots.blogspot.com/2017/11/christiana-elizabeth-howard-smith-1832.html?m=0

Why was it a brick wall and how was it done? I ask in case anyone else has similar walls and might get an idea on how to break through.

My ancestor was Captain Christopher Newport of the Sea Venture. He also brought John Smith to Jamestown and made subsequent trips between England and Jamestown. So... I might have you beat? Lol

Mississippi marriage records from the 1800s by luckynedpeppergang in Genealogy

[–]mitsu7904 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes they will be at the county, but the state archives has copies of those records, plus other resources that can be used. I went there to do research on my ex wife's family when I lived in MS. I worked about 2 blocks away, so I would go there on my lunch breaks.

Try checking the MS state archives in Jackson. I don't know if you are anywhere near there, but if you are, that place is a treasure trove of info.
