RLP 289: Exploring New Tools at Living DNA

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about the new DNA tools at LivingDNA. Initially, we discuss our personal projects and thoughts on time management, emphasizing the importance of prioritizing life goals and projects. We then shift to the main topic: our experience with LivingDNA's new tools, specifically the chromosome browser and the Matchbox. We explain how these tools help in organizing DNA match lists and provide insights into ancestral connections. LivingDNA's unique feature of giving detailed biogeographical breakdowns, particularly for British Isles ancestry, is highlighted. A case study is presented where Diana uses these tools to identify a mystery DNA match. By filtering out small segments and focusing on larger ones, she successfully imports data into a chromosome map on DNA Painter. This process aids in distinguishing between maternal and paternal matches. Diana illustrates how analyzing shared centimorgans and geographical regions, along with using tools like Lucidchart and ancestry trees, can confirm hypotheses about family connections. We conclude by emphasizing the benefits of using multiple DNA databases for comprehensive genealogical research, noting the unique information each provides.

RLP 288: Resolving Conflicts on the FamilySearch Family Tree

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about conflicts encountered while researching our ancestor Harriet Huggett Kelsey and updating her profile on FamilySearch. Diana found conflicting information about Harriet's birth year, with possible years of 1823, 1825, and 1826 from different sources. We discuss a conflict regarding the name and identity of Harriet's twin sister Hester/Esther, with records using both spellings and even an indexed baptism record combining the two sisters' names into "Esther Harriet Huggett." To resolve the birth year conflict, Diana found Harriet's original 1823 baptism record showing she was baptized shortly after birth as well as an 1841 census record stating she was 18 years old, confirming the 1823 birth year over the later years Harriet herself had given. For the name and identity conflict of Hester, we again found the original 1823 baptism record clearly naming the two twin daughters as Esther and Harriet Huggett. Diana shares a note on a family group sheet from a descendant about Hester's name variations. Shee updated the profiles and added reason statements explaining the research and resolution of the conflicts. Join us as we discuss using original records, adding source citations, adding notes with reasoning, and collaborating with other researchers through FamilySearch tools. We also discuss alert notes and the challenges and benefits of having a free, shared family tree at FamilySearch. This summary was created with AI.

RLP 287: Flew the Coop: Harriet (Huggett) Kelsey

Today's episode of Research Like a Pro is about our ancestor Harriett Huggett (Nicole's 3rd great-grandmother and Diana's 2nd great-grandmother). Diana researched records for Harriett's early life in England. She enjoyed finding a personal history written by Harriett's granddaughter which provided wonderful details about Harriett's decision to leave her wealthy situation. The history describes their difficult journey and Harriett's adjustment to poverty in the Utah desert after being used to fine things in England. We talk about how this must have been a huge transition for her. Harriett wrote a letter about her life in 1892 to her grandchildren. Diana found the letter on FamilySearch and says it shows Harriett had no regrets, despite the challenges. She lives a life of fortitude, courage and service. Diana says writing blog posts about ancestors helps her learn more details she wouldn't have found otherwise. This summary was created by AI.

RLP 284: University Archives with Sam Howes

In this episode of Research Like a Pro, Nicole Dyer and Diana Elder speak with Sam Howes, an archivist at Bates College in Maine. They discuss his work managing the official records of the college, including administrative documents, student records, yearbooks, and special collections. Sam explains what types of materials college archives typically maintain, like trustee meeting minutes, presidential records, alumni newsletters, student government documents, and more. He notes that confidentiality restrictions can limit access to some more recent records. The hosts also ask Sam about how and why archival collections get donated to colleges. He explains that materials often relate to notable alumni or tie into existing collections at the school based on its history. As an example, Bates houses an extensive collection belonging to former Maine governor Edmund Muskie. Sam emphasizes that college archives can contain a treasure trove of unexpected information and encourages contacting the archive in advance when planning a research visit.
