Charles, or is it Chuck?;  To bad you don't/can't use Brother's Keeper!
It has a built in utility that automatically calculates the relationship

I know that you have lots of other replies, so I'll spare the details.
My Father-in-law is a grand-mason nad his first wife, my wife's mother
was an Easter Star.  Most of the other replies are basicaly correct.
What will it do for you?  All lodges maintain archives with membership
info., so if you can find out what lodge she belonged to, or the city,
or leave a name, I can get `dad' to try & look her up.

 Is it a new ripoff scheme that used to come from Canton, OH?

I have no ancestors in my area, but I did join the local society.  I
have spent a lot of time in the local library archives, which is
staffed largely by volunteers from the society.  They also contribute a
lot of material to the archives, and one of their members conducts a
non-credit genealogy course through a local community college.  The
course is held in the library archives, so that students can do some
real hands-on learning.  To me, joining the local society was simply
the right thing to do.

I also joined the state society in my home state (Ohio) this year, and
two local chapters in counties (Coshocton and Union) where my kazillion
ancestors lived.  I can't say how much assistance I'll receive, but the
newsletters have already given me at least two very valuable leads that
I hadn't found anywhere else.

Thanks to everyone who answered my inquiry about Eastern Star. Now
that I know it is the women's auxiliary of the Masons, it all makes
sense as my great-aunt who was Eastern Star was married to a Mason.

I think I've replied to all the 150 some-odd folks who sent queries
concerning Virdin's PENNSYLVANIA GENEALOGIES & FAMILY HISTORIES. If
I missed anyone, let me know.

Several people asked about finding the books. Virdin complied his
list mainly by working in libraries in the Washington, DC, area:
Library of Congress, DAR, National Genealogical Society, etc. But
he also drew on hundreds of others: New York Public, Allen County,
Sutro, Historical Society of PA, etc.

So I'd suggest both checking some of the larger on-line OPACs
(Melvyl, etc) and buttering up the good folks in your local
Interlibrary Loan office. (The latter's always a good policy
anyway.)

Cheers,
Joe Gardner

Someone posted something about this group, UDC (United Daughters of the
Confederacy). I've never heard of this organization...does anyone have
any information on it?

For Fred Rump...and all others interested in a success...

I was at my father's a couple of weekends ago and he let me copy info
from my g-grandmother's family bible.  It goes back all the way to my
g-g-g-grandfather.  I then got some information from my uncle that my
g-g-g-grandfather was from Homer, LA (Claiborne Parish) and that there
was a book of Claiborne Parish that had a picture of him and the Old
Monk home.  Well...looking through OPAC yesterday, I come across this
book in the Special Collections portion of the UK library on
Claiborne Parish that was published in 1886 (Woooo...I almost fainted)
Well anyway, turns out that this wasn't the book w/the pictures, but...
it did tell me that my g-g-grandfather was a lieutenant in the Civil War-a
confederate and it listed the cavalry he was in-he even wrote the memoirs
for the book.  By the way, his name was J.R. Monk.  And then I found
my g-g-g-grandfather-Merrill Monk and his infantry.

My next question to you all -- I have not been at this very long --can
I get their military records?  I'm sure I can, but where do I start?
I know this may sound like a stupid question...is there a FAQ on it?

Any help would be gladly returned...

This works with Unix or Xenix.

# end of script

[etc., etc.]

The first paragraph is very similar to what is currently written inside
U.S. passports.  I would assume that this certificate is the equivalent
of a passport.  (There is a desription rather than a photograph because
I doubt there were Fotomats on every corner in 1894.)

Subject: ancesstors in Britian
Organization: Texas A&M University, College Station

I am an genelogist who currently doing research on my ancesstors in Britian.
I recently found a pedigree chart taking my direct family line from early
1600's to 1272.  My last name in 1272 is Bradshaw.  They owned a manor in 
Landcaster County, Britian and the family line was known as "Bradshaw
of Pennington". 

I would be very grateful if anyone could help me with the following questions:
	
	1.  How do Americans find information on ancesstors in England/Ireland/
	    Scotland prior to 1800?
	2.  Where and How do I find information on my ancesstor's manor, and
	    if anyone of them were knighted?
