52 Weeks To Better Genealogy - Challenge #6

Once again I am challenged by Thomas and Amy to explore the library from my chair, only this time to see where my library card will take me and which online databases will grant me access.

I have three different library cards, each from a different county. The one I use the most is from the Nassau County Public Library because it gives me access to Ancestry Library from my own home. However, a drawback from using the library edition of Ancestry.com is that you don't have access to the public member trees, which in my opinion is total BULL!!

Nassau also offers Heritage Quest Online. Through Heritage Quest you can search and view the Census, Books, Freedman's Bank (a bank established for the benefit of freed slaves), and U.S.Serial Set. You can search through the Periodical Source Index (PERSI), but there is no database available. Instead they have an order form for you to fill out. Each order form allows a request for up to six articles with an accompanying $7.50, then you pay 20 cents per copy after they send the articles to you. I actually found six articles that I want copies of -- yeah!

I also found a book that I was able to download, The book is entitled George Cannon, the immigrant. He is my 3rd great-grandfather. Looking through the Serial Sets I found one called Indian Depredations in Utah which mentions my 2nd great-grandfather, William H. Piggott in the payroll for May 1, 1866 - August 30, 1866.

The next card I use is from Jacksonville Public Library. Under their genealogy section they only have Ancestry Library and Archive Grid which are both for in-library use only.

Their obituary section includes America's Obituary and Death Notices; powered by Newsbank, Obituary Daily Times; powered by Rootsweb, and Proquest Obituaries.

In the history section card holders can access History Resource Center. The Newspapers & Magazines section offers America's Newspapers, Florid Newspapers, and Florida Times-Union Archives, InfoTrac Onefile, InfoTrac Web, and Major Metropolitan Newspapers.There is also a link to Trans-Atlantic Slave Voyage Database.

The other library card I have is from the Emily Taber Public Library which is a part of the New River Public Library Cooperative. They also offer the Ancestry Library edition as well as the Heritage Quest.

52 Weeks To Better Genealogy - Challenge #5

Play with WorldCat.org -- That's what Genea-Bloggers and Amy Coffin over at We Tree told me to do. I am so glad that they did because I had fun! Who knew that you could search hundreds of libraries in one spot? (Okay, I may be the only one who didn't.)

The first thing I did was search to make sure that the two closest libraries were included in this world's largest library catalog. I was actually a little surprised to find that they were. I was sure that the Jacksonville Library was there. So I made these my favorite libraries:
  1. Emily Taber Public Library
  2. Jacksonville Public Library
  3. Nassau County Public Library System
You don't need to have a username and a password to run a search, but I set one up anyway so I could make lists and set my favorite libraries.

I ran a search on a couple of areas that I need to do some research in, namely New York and Rhode Island. In doing so I spotted the name of a genealogist and author that I have corresponded with so next I ran a search on her name, Jane Fletcher Fiske. I did one more search using the name of my most notable ancestor Governor Benedict Arnold.

I found several books and microfilms that I would love to spend time with ==>

Brayton, A., & Benson, J. H. (1960). The burying place of Governor Arnold: An account of the establishment, destruction, and restoration of the burying place of Benedict Arnold, first Governor of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations. Newport, R. I.: Privately printed.

Spies, F. F. (1989). Inscriptions from Quaker burying grounds with notes Purchase, West Chester Co., Chappaqua, West Chester Co., Pawling, Dutchess Co., (Quaker Hill), Bethel, Dutchess Co., index.

Bolton, R. (1848). A history of the county of Westchester, from its first settlement to the present time. New York: Printed by Alexander S. Gould.

Unfortunately most of these publications are out of my reach and are not included in the interlibrary loan program. However "
The history of the several towns, manors, and patents of the County of Westch ester, from its first settlement: With numerous genealogies of county families : carefully revised by the author. is available in the Jacksonville Library.

I did put in a request for the book "
Thomas Cooke of Rhode Island: A genealogy of Thomas Cooke, alias Butcher of Netherbury, Dorsetshire, England, who came to Taunton, Massachusetts in 1637 and settled in Portsmouth, Rhode Island in 1643", so hopefully I will get that.

Thank you again Thomas and Amy for this fun little game!
