    I think it depends from state to state (and maybe even county to county) from what is offered and when. I already had some court docs indexed. But I thank you for reminding me to check. I last looked... probably late summer. For this one family I'm currently working on. Last night I found a bunch of election returns, court minutes (which includes jury panels), more probates than were in there before, some random newspapers, but found an interesting item, and something called the County Account Records. Seems to be supplemental to the probates. Not sure why these accounting books have probate inventory sales in them. Those are usually found with the probate files. Also, some marriage indexes where I can find where my folks were witnesses and my guy's son-in-law, who was a JP, when he married couples that weren't mentioned in the paper. Always happy to find more documentation! I have, in the past, also found a deed that happened to not be indexed in the deed book. There's tons of treasures to be found in the AI document searching!

  • @kn-qz7by

    Two things: 1. A Bible costing $3.89 in 1908 would be equivalent to over $133.00 dollars today. 2. Richard Nixon’s father bought the family’s California home from a Sears catalog and put it together himself. Bonus!: I bought a Bullworker isometrics exercise device from a Sears catalog many eons ago.

    • @EasyGenie
      @EasyGenie Месяц назад

    my grandparents house was i believe a Sears kit home, I know my grandfather built he house himself. They lived in the heart of Ohio and Sears was founded here. A lot of people don’t know that Dayton Ohio, was a key location in the 1800s to come and buy products from all around the world, and it could’ve very well been sears, I remember my grandmother ordering a thimble of thread for her sewing machine, and Sears delivering it to her clear across town for free. those were definitely different times, I remember getting potato chips from Charlie’s chips, and them being delivered to the front porch, and the tin cans still being warm from where they had just made the potato chips that morning. My grandfather worked at Frigidaire, he was a engineer and designer, he designed the seals that seal the refrigerator, any designed the old ice trays where you pulled the handle up in the middle to break the ice cubes, they used to call him the iceman, long before the hitman was called the iceman 🧐😬🤫🇺🇸

    Down in southeastern Oklahoma, back in the 1930s and 40s, my grandfather and uncle trapped fox, raccoon, etc, prepared the hides, packed them in gunny sacks and shipped them to Sears Roebuck in Kansas City through the U S mail. Sears would send back a check. My great uncle would order car parts for his Model T from Sears.

      @EasyGenie Yes, jackets, hats, and such. Furs and hides from animals were durable and warm. Of course, there was cotton, flax, silk, and wool. Before synthetic petroleum based products were developed that's what people used.

    These old plat(?) maps have been invaluable to me in solving a couple mysteries. I've used NY & Fed censuses to chart all kinds SES patterns on these maps, figured out if people were really neighbors (sometimes enumerator turned around and went in a completely diff direction rather than finish a street (was it washed out? ?Close to lunch?) which would not be evident on the census for two families suddenly next to each other when you expected to find several relatives next to each other on the census. (The land ownership did not change, only the census takers path). If you are lucky, you will find 2 of these maps made a few years apart (Madison & Chenango Co had these land maps made 2x in the mid 19th century.)

    • @EasyGenie
      @EasyGenie 2 месяца назад

      Whenever I read old census records, I wish they had implemented street names. Sometimes you see enumerators adding hand-written annotations to track the streets but it's inconsistent. I also see numbers without another data which I believe could be street numbers or the total count for a certain area.

    Good sleuthing but how does this prove that "Uncle Albert" was correct? Are there other photos with which you can cross-reference yours? The truth of the statements written by someone is not dependent on knowing the identity of the writer - they still could be incorrect. It's a great find, and an important one but it doesn't prove the identification to be correct but at least it does indicate that the writer could have firsthand knowledge of the identities of most if not all of the people. As an aside, your story reminds me of a similar one in my family - my aunt had a photograph and she handed it to her aunt and asked her to write down the names of the people in the photograph on the photograph while she prepared dinner. Much to my aunt's horror, when she returned, she saw that her aunt had indeed written down the names of each person- in red ink- right across their faces! And this was the original photograph with no known copies. Moral of the story: watch what you say because her aunt did exactly what was asked of her. And - watch everything - always!

    Good system for file organising but as a historian I caution you in: 1) the document scanner ix300 etc are not appropriate for old photos. They bend and damage them. At least use an Epson v600 or similar flatbed to protect the images. You are damaging the paper and ink. 2) The ideal to write notes is good, but not directly on the back of the photograph. Again, this damages the old photographs in impressions and ink. It is easy to just place a card/paper underneath it in your archive sleeve. Well meaning archivists in the past damaged irreplaceable photographs by making these errors. Lastly, I would not throw out any photographs. You never know what use they might have years from now. Save them and all your old negatives, as negatives are more important.
