I'm new to My Heritage and just saw your post. My mother is a Middleton from New Orleans. Her grandfather was Ruben Middleton, a painter there born about 1855 in England and married in New Orleans in 1880. I have no idea who his parents were. Is it possible he was related to any of your Middletons?
I am looking for family memebrs of Virginia Earls Middleton she was married to George White and also information on Clarence White, Please email me @ hunnybunnyandjoshiebear@hotmail.com
I've been looking for James B Smith and found his marriage record, and he married Oma Ball in 1914, I think in Lewiston Idaho. I know he had two brothers, Clarence and Claude I believe. Can't find his family because I don't know if they came from England early on or not. I hear rumbles from a brother about Texas, but I never heard that from Grampa.If anyone has a hint or a lead, I would appreciate it so much. Thank You for reading this. Mike Mikeldeb@tctwest.net
Am lookiing for any information on Eliza Jane Spears, married to Elza Massie (Ohio). Cannot seem to locate any viable information regarding her parents. Thanks for any assistance.
Now that I have the time to spend, I would like to research my family roots. I know there are plenty of companies that provide genealogical information, some of whom advertise "free data" In most cases, the only FREE data after posting one's ancestor's name is "Yes, we have data on this person, now register (and pay) and we'll tell you". I don't mind subscribing to a service and paying for this info, but how do I know which of the many sites provide the most comprehensive data for the price of registering? To put it another way- who gives the most bang for the buck- birth, marriage/divorce, death records, etc.? I'd like to hear from folks who have genealogical research experience and compare their recommendations.
I have been working in genealogy for about eight years. I am trying to do about five different family trees. Ancestory.com is one of the best sites. But I will give you one tip. No matter what site you sign up with or go to - always understand that 90% of the time the information that is posted there is information that individuals have posted and believe that it is true. Sometimes it is and sometimes it isnt. Where are your ancestors from - what part of the country? If I know that I might be able to give you some ideas about where to start without having to sign up at a web site. Email me at bgmsanders@aol.com. Barbara
