D. A. Killebrew ordered some new cotton seed to plant which have come up, and P. H. Zeigler said the cotton had a nickle on each leaf. Some of you men may not believe it but we have Mr. Zeigler's word for it. I think Mr. Zeigler ought to have the cake.

Don’t know if it is about cotton prices going up or diseased cotton or something else.

Use the trees for possible leads as you do with Ancestry trees. I’ve gotten some great leads that have proven very useful.
The further back you go the more problematic they become.
I highly doubt that my husband is descended from a Viking king or I’m descended from the Boleyn family.
Relatives are based on FamilySearch trees which are user inputted. Errors do occur. Also, some trees are deeper and more researched. Your connection might be closer on a different family line but FamilySearch might have not that information.
I’m going to try and cast from my phone to the TV. 🤞
I’m not religious, but even I know the story about the golden calf and idols. Wonder how the evangelists will try to spin this.
I’m watching it on YouTube
I’m American and I’m watching CBC to get news from outside the USA. Most of our news media are afraid of Trump, especially after what he did to the Associated Press.
My boyfriend’s first job after college was with EDS (Lansing) in the late 80s. I remember he had to sign a morality clause and have a strict dress code.
At this point, I’m wondering how many companies are making exit plans to leave the US

Does this duck figure mean anything on Trump’s lapel or is it just bad AI?
This is from the “Long Live the King” Trump photo posted by The White House.
I read this in Dr Seuss’ Fox in Socks rhythm. I need my morning coffee 😂
What can go wrong?
Putting people with drug issues and kids on ADHD meds on a farm without cellphones or communication with the outside world. (Hopefully, they won’t combine the age populations)
Raising money through sales tax on cannabis which isn’t legal in most states.

Nice gem that I found today on Newspapers.com

I also like the filtering on the Open Street Map.
Thank you for sharing.
I really like the look of the map especially the detailed descriptions and the shaded areas.
“Deputy Archivist William Bosanko informed staff in an email Friday that he will step down on Tuesday. Bosanko, who has worked at the agency since 1993, has been the acting head of the National Archives and Records Administration for just a week…”
According to the Mother Jones’ article “According to two sources familiar with the situation, Bosanko was pushed out by Jim Byron, a 31-year old who was recently president of the Richard Nixon Foundation. Byron delivered Bosanko an ultimatum: Resign now or be fired next week.”
I have lots of Google pins. I’m looking for an alternative when I try to visualize locations. I don’t think I need it to integrate with anything. Though, I did see that Gramps & TNG had OSM modules.
Are there any genealogists using OpenStreetMap? Is it a good alternative for mapping historical rural United States locations?
#genealogy
There is a Hobonichi feed
I think Bluesky will offer an IG alternative.
Some of the planner folks that I followed are here.
Genealogists and archivists from European countries are here and some Americans.
Firefox works with Zotero. I’m retired and having fun transcribing and organizing 1800s probate records, etc
😂
I get the ad all the time on YouTube. It doesn’t make sense and I’m not goin’ to click on it. It’s so odd.
I put Firefox back on my PC.
I use LibreOffice because I’m cheap.
I have only use gmail for my junk email
Google had the tendency of introducing an program and then discontinuing. So I never felt comfortable using Google Drive/Google Docs
I’m in my 60s and get “real men” hunting jackets. I don’t search anything remotely like that.
For driving, we still use paper maps 😂
I need a mapping program for pinning genealogy locations.
I'd love to see all you genealogy bloggers including a "share" button for Bluesky! So many more platforms and hosting services are including it as an option. I added it to my blog - plus I ditched the one for that bird site!
Oh that’s a fun one. Love when descendants have conflicting info. Good luck with the puzzle.
Do they at least have the same location for her birth?
This feels so dystopian and surreal.
