At last, #Ancestry have changed their unhelpful date search options.

Now it looks like you can add a custom date range instead of just a single date or +/- 20 years. Much better!

This square design is a montage of two photos, the main one itself a montage. It shows a contemporary photo of 2-masted schooner similar to the wrecked ship “Oriental” at the center of this story, with two inset newspaper clippings from 1844 on the left side of the photo. Inset at lower right is a photo of several long bones and part of a skull laid out on a white cloth on a table, parts of “Scattered Man John Doe” recovered from New Jersey beaches between 1995-2013. The words say “Mystery Bones Identified! Photos courtesy of The New York Post (schooner montage) and The Independent (bones).”

Now THAT’S a #coldcase! “Scattered Man John Doe” now has an ID, thanks to #genetic #geneaolgy and a team of enterprising #college kids. He is Henry Goodsell, captain of a schooner that sank in 1844. #forensic #science for the win!

Had to go old school this week so I could hear a recorded oral history from Eastern KY University. Learn about union organizer Tom Raney in this week’s letter. #geneaolgy #organize integrity-through-time.beehiiv.com/p/organizing...
