GENEALOGICAL COMPUTING - AN UPDATE

Norman E. Scofield.

Two years ago the author presented in these pages (Sept. 1981, p. 83)a modest essay entitled "The Usefulness of Computers in Ameteur Genealogy".In the field of Personal computers (PC) two years is now about a generation.The stars of 1981 are now being outshone byNova oftoday. In the more restricted field of genealogical programs for Pc's, the changes have been substantial, if not as dramatic.

One thing has remained relatively constant. The b-st source of information about genealogical computing remains the bi-monthly newsletter ofthatname, written and published by Paul and Sara Andereck* (*Data Transfer Associates, Inc., 5102 Ponmeroy Drive, Fairfax, VA 22032). Ibrtunately our societysubscribes to this publication and has a complete back-file from Vol. 1 No. 1July, 1981. ' '

Comparing the situation in September '81 with that of July '83, we make thefollowing observations. On P. 16 of the September '81 issue we find: "Lettersfrom our readers show that there are many who write their own programs. Thisis partly ofnecessity, the software now on the market does not cover allmakes and models of personal computers." By contrast, in the July '83 issuewe find, on page 22, a Genealogy Programs Directory listing, for sale, 27 programs for 18 makes of PC's. The most popular computers are TRS (7 Models) with15 programs, Apple (3 Models) with 7 programs, and IBM (2 Models) with 7 programs.

In September '81 we find on p. 2" "IBM enters the personal computer market"-according toWashington Post Staff writer James L. Rowe, Jr. ."InternationalBusiness Machines Corp. has announced its entry into the personal computermarket this fall " Now, IBM personal computer sales have overtaken Appleand TRS, the former leaders, and will probably dominate this market for sometime to come.

In many genealogical societies members owning or interested in personal computers are organizing themselves to share infoimation and techniques with eachother and with similar groups in other societies. There are even user groupsformed around one genealogical program for one type of computer. Perhaps inthe future we may see many genealogical organizations belonging to genealogicalcomputing networks, able to comnunicate over phone lines and pass genealogicaldata back and forth.

Another interesting direction of growth is the development of "Portable"PC's, small enough and operable on batteries for several hours, that could betaken along on your library or archive research and used for direct entry tofiles. The most promising of these have companion full size desk-top PC's towhich they can transfer files of research data.

In conclusion, if you have geen thinking about getting a PC to help withyour family research but have'nt thought there were any computers or programsthat would work for you, take a look at Genealogical Computing and see how farthe field has come in just two years. Cane on in. The computings fun:

NEWS FROM TRE NATIONAL ARCHIVES

1910 CENSUS FINDING AID fc NARS GIFT TUND: At long last we can announce thata suitable first project for the NARS Gift Fund had been found! Negotiationsare underway between the National Archives and theBureau of the Census toobtain the street indexes to enumeration districts for the 30 largest cities(list and sample page enclosed) to be reproduced on microfiche for distributiontothe Regional Branches and for eventual sale. To produce this finding aidand future ones, we need at least $1 per year per genealogist. PLEASE ENCOUR-AGE EVERY MEMBER OF YOUR GENEALOGICAL SOCIETY TO SEND YOUR SOCIETY'S TREASURERDOLLARS FOR TRE GIFT FUND. Treasurers should send a check for the total re-deived (one dollar, at least, for every member of the society is your goal)payable to: Federation of Genealogical Societies, and marked: NARS Gift Fund.Mail it to the Federation address: P.O.Box 220, Davenport, IA 52805.

FUTURE FINDING AIDS: NARS is beginning to microfiche the Civil War Pensionrecords. Subject to availability of our gifts to the NARS Gift Fund, theyhope to microfiche, also, the complete Civil War Service Records.TO DATE: We have collected over $5,000 in NARS Gift Fund.

The maps are multicolored, and experiments are being made to ascertain how best to reproduce .these colormaps. We shall keep you informed of progress.

PROBLEMS WITH THE 1910CENSUS: There have beenmany complaints about the illeg-ibility of some of the 1910 Census microfilms. It may be possible to improvesome of these with your help. The microfilms were made by the Bureau of theCensus (not the National Archives) in the 1940's when microfilming was in itsinfancy. If you discover an illegible microfilm, please reports its numberand locality to theRegional Branch where you consulted it. If you have purchased illegible reels, they can be returned to: National Archives Trust FundBoard, Washington, DC 20408. They will check the master and reproduce it byimproved modern microphotography.

DTOHLIBRARY LOAN OF CENSUS MICROFILM. NARS has awarded a contract to DDD Cor-poration of Landover, MD to provide~census microfilms on interlibrary loanat a cost not to exceed $2.25 per reel. This service will become operable byJuly 3, 1983. Appropriate announcements will be forthcoming.

MICHIGAN

Capital, Lansing Territory 1805 26th State 1837

For some time after France obtained possession of American territory, a considerable outpost was maintained at Detroit. In 1763 Michigan became partof Quebec territory, remaining under that jurisdiction for twenty years.In 1763 the area was included in that ceded to Britain. In 1783 it wasagain under the claim of America. For a short time, the Indians inflicted considerable damage, ending about 1795 when American troops under thecommand of General Anthony Wayne succeeded in herding the Indians fartherwest. From 1787 until 1800 the Michigan section was part of the NorthwestTerritory and from 1800 to 1805 was conneoted with the Ohio and the IndianTerritories. The first American settlers began coming to Michigan about1796 from New England. No appreciable Influx occurred until 1818 when manycame to participate in the first public land sales. Commencement of workon the Erie Canal in that year drew many New Englanders. Completion of the

-canal in 1825 added new stimuliV to migrations. That same year many cameto work on road construction headed toward Chicago. In 1829 constructionof the Kalamasoo Valley territorial road brought many who establishedthemselves in Jackson, Calhoun, Kalamazoo and Allegan Counties. In I830the Saginaw Valley, including Shiawassee, Saginaw and Bay Counties, *°e™to fill up with permanent settlers. By 1836 fourteen counties nadbeen formed.By 1850 sbout half the southern peninsula,land seekers had come from New Tone,New England and Germany. A fifty-year boom occurred from 1840 to 1890.

SANTA BARBARA COUNTY MARRIAGE RECORDS - 1901

WILLIAMS, Amy W. H. i. C. McPHAILWILSON, Alice B. I. SMITHWILSON, J. W. Jane E. TREAD8ELLWINES, Geo N. (Geo. V.) Mrs. Maria GRUHLER(Grubler)WOKURKA, Jennie John HENGELAND (Hedeland)WORCESTER, Willard M. Mary A. TTERNEYYEAGER, Harriet M. Anoka G. HUGHESYORK, George Inez LEEHMAN (Leebman)YOUNG, Rosa E. William L. COOPERZEEHANDELAAR, Felix J. (NGI) Mary E. PERRYMAN

PLACE NAMES

In connection with the transcription of the 1900 marriage records ,two questions arose:

1. The location of Surf. "California Place Names (1944-1948)", acontribution of the University of California to the Centennial Celebrationof California, found in the Gledhill Library at the Santa Barbara Historical Society Museum, discloses that SURFwas a post office established in1890, so named because of the location at the ocean shore, below OceanBeach County Park inthe Vandenburg area.

2. The spelling varying in the two lists- one "SERENA", the other"SERANO" raised again the question: Where was Serena? The only CaliforniaPlace Name listing was SERRANO- San Luis Obispo County. A station namedin 1893 by the Southern Pacific for the Serrano family from whom the rightof wayu was obtained. Miguel Serrano, a native of Mexico, had settled inthis county in 1828.

In one of the scrapbooks at the Gledhill Library are two articles byStella Haverland Rouse which appeared in her "Olden Says" in the Santa Barbara News-Press Sept. 21 and 28, 1980- Serena and the Carpinteria wharfand More about the Community called Serena. She reports that Georgia Stock-ton in "La Carpinteria" says that Douglas W. Jones,who came to Carpinteriaabout 1870, owned property along the beach west of Old Town, but states thereis no record of Jones having built a wharf there. In June,1870, an organization known as "Trustees of the Carpinteria Settlers" was formed with Andrew Ballard, E. H. Pierce, S. H. Olmstead, Albert Dory and Russell Heathas members. Owen H. O'Neill's Hiatory of Santa Barbara County states thefranchise was transferred to Frank Smith, probably in the middle 1870s.Georgia Stockton attributes the name "La Serena" to Milton Smith, noting theeven temperature and general serenity of the climate, and says John MiltonSmith was one of the four Smiths who oame to California in those early years.Frank Smith's obituary in March,1930, stated he came here with Nelson D.,Solon, and John Milton Smith in 1870, and also states that he was one ofthe builders of the old Carpinteria wharf, and later entered into partnership with John P. Stearns, serving as manager and principal owner of theSanta Barbara Wharf over a long period of years. Three of the Smiths werebrothers and the fourth a nephew. Other landowners connected with theSerena area were the Villalba brothers, who came to California gold fieldsand named their land extending from the hilltips to the ocean Punta Del Monte. Rafael Villalba raised gamecocks which fought with neighbors' birds ina creek near the beach. In the late 1880s when the railroad was beingbrought from Los Angeles, La Serena Land and Water Company acquired 340acres around Serena for $125,000. Springs furnished water for the tract.30 acres was planted in walnuts, with prunes and apricots interplanted.The syndicate proposed to lay out a town and offer sites in various sizesbut the "land boom" soon subsided.. At the Courthouse two deeds recordedtransfers of Serena beach property from John Nidever and Annie and FrankS. Smith In May 5,1894 and March 9,1895, respectively, to John RichardThurmond, who 1b said to have erected a huge sign, "Serene, Serener, Se-renest" on some of his property.

The second article reports that while Serena never developed into acommunity, the site halfway between Carpinteria and Summerland sometimes

-had other useful buildings besides the wharf. There was a grammar schoolfor a while. When Solon Smith was a Carpinteria judge he held Court athis home in Serena. Frank Smith's obituary says he presided in the postoffice there. Early in the 20th century there was promise of a new industry, when in February,1904, Albert Carter,"inventor of the process ofgenerating power from the sun's rays" was reported to have bought the Carpinteria wharf and 12 acres of land for the manufacture of solar furnaces.He also intended to have a plant for extracting and refining Bait from theocean water by a process of rapid precipitation. He also was reported tohave proposed development of a summer resort. However, E. W. Hayward,a Santa Barbara insurance man, bought the property in August, 1905. Afew years later the widow of Robert Louis Stevenson bought a part of

PLACE NAMES

the property and in July, 1910, closed the Serena wharf to the public.In September, 1938, Isobel Field, stepdaughter and amenuonsis of RobertLouis Stevenson in Samoa, lived on the Serena property. Mrs. Fieldlater occupied a cottage at El Mirasol Hotel in Santa Barbara. GeorgeA. Batchelder,"former representative on this coast of the Rollins BondHouse", bought several Serena properties, including one adjoining thebuildings of Mrs. Stevenson. In the mid-twenties another settlementwas planned - Serena Park - subdivided into residence lots by Emery, Wick-nam and Ross, who had purchased the land from L. B. Cadwell.

SBGS member Alma Imhoff Lauritsen and her husband Carl became interested in the problem. He obtained a copy of the subdivision map andcertification and reported that he was told the location was near thepresent polo field and envisioned as a small religious colony, but neverreally developed and when the present Highway 101 was constructed itcut through this property. The map does show the southern boundary tobe Coast Highway and the western Toro Canon Road, with short cross streetsof Park View Avenue and Serena Avenue, with Ocean View Avenue running para-le" *<> Toro Canon apProziaately in the center of the tract. The map isentitled: MAP OF SERENA PARK SANTA BARBARA COUNTY CAL. Being a subdivisionof lands formerly owned by L. B. Cadwell, surveyed for Emery Wickham &Ross Survey made in Nov. 1924 by Chas. E. Aubrey, Licensed Surveyor.The map shows 73 lots of varying sizes. County officers whose signaturesappear on the map are A. T. Eaves, Auditor of the County of Santa Barbara;Chas. s. Tomlinson, County Assessor; Owen H. O'Neill, County Surveyor;C. A. Hunt, Clerk of the County of Santa Barbara and of the Board of Supervisors, H. S. Deaderick, Chairman of the Board of Supervisors, and YrisCovarrubias, County Recorder,attesting to the December 22, 1924 filing.

Reference was also found in the clippings to El Sereno Motel in thecarpinteria area, named for an early owner of property there.

Permission to reproduce inany other form may be secured from the editor* Queries free to all subscribers, $1 each to others. Size 8 1/2 x 11 Front cover:The Logo or Shield superimposed on a reproduction of the front page of ThePhiladelphia Inquirer, September 22, 1862, reporting on the Battle Field ofAntietam, to its 60,000 subscribers, (see p. 109 for full reproduction andsuggestion "If you have a copy of an interesting pre-1900 newspaper frontpage, send it in - it may be the next Warren Family Historian cover!"There is a 4-page (137-140) index of the issue; Obituary index,biographicalindex at the Minnesota Historical Society of some 30 individuals,some withdates of arrival in Minn, Minn, residence, birth 4 death dates, and place ofbirth, with offer by Paula Warren,I869 Laurel Ave. St. Paul to check references and obtain a copy of article, if sent an SASE and 250 for the copy.Index of subscribers who are actively researching their family history with

subscriber numbers and another 2 pages of Warren Ancestor Indexes,with statistics and spouse's name(ll0-112) Sources are shown for varying articles. Thepleated ribbon type headings are confusing. They include Bible RecordsCemeteries; Church Records; Sources. Some of the LEGAL TERMS USED IN GENEALOGY(122) are at best misleading. Examples: DEPONENT-One gives evidence,especially in writing; To many this would not alert many to the fact that, in law,it is (a) oca who deposes or makes a deposition under oath; one who giveswritten testimony under oath (b) one who makes an affidavit (Webster's Diet.)DEVISOR, TESTATOR - One who wills land to another. Devisor, in law is one whodevises (gives ina will) real property. Testator is one who makes and leavesat death a legally valid will. POLL TAX - a tax on individuals 4 not a property tax. Poll tax is a tax per head; in some States payment ofa poll taxis a prerequisite to voting. There are other examples of inaccuracy or incompleteness in definitions, which could have been found by consulting Web-sters Unabridged Dictionary. The article is Baid to be reprinted from TheBlue Mountain Heritage, Vol EC, No. 344, quarterly of the Walla-Walls ValleyGenealogical Society. This is an example of reprinting erroneous information. Just because it is in print, does not evidence authenticity. Specialfeatures in next issues are listed on the inside back cover and includeACROSS THE POND, Records of Warrens In England 4 Ireland,etc. MAYFLOWER FAMILIES; RESEARCH SPOTLIGHT, if interest based on this issue's survey, onestate per issue to be spotlighted* with brief history,where to and how toresearch, record depositories and libraries, societies, other hin£s andhelps, and other features.

This quarterly should prove a valuable aid to those of the WARREN nameand certainly merits consideration and contribution from interested persons.This editor's own connection with the name Warren is through its recurrenceas a middle name in one branch of the Mann family of Massachusetts and bytradition stemming from the Dr. Joseph Warren, a physician,who participatedin the Battle of Bunker Hill.

FAMILY ASSOCIATION NEWS - NEW BOOKS

^t^v^ DeSHAZER FAUBION DOUGLASS HOWLETT CRAFT HILL HARRIS

It started aa a Hobby and a Heritage to leave to our Gxandchildzen. It "snowballed"into being a major project which, apparently, was of Interest to many people.

He wanted to prove the various family Legends relatives had told us about our ancestors. Although we didn't find answers to all the legends, we were amazed atthe Interesting history we found on our seven family lines. They had played animportant part in the development of our country. Our families crossed theplains to Oregon during the period 1851 to I883.

During the past twelve years, we have traveled over 100,000 miles by car, bus andplane to visit fourteen states where our ancestors resided. Ve visited libraries,courthouses, relatives ws didn't know we had, kept the U. S. sail busy with lettersgoing both directions, and spent three different weeks at the fabuous Salt LakeCity Library. Mow ws are submitting our manuscript to a Kaui publisher with hopesof completion by the end of 1983 or early 198**.

Several publishers advised it was sore economical to have the histories In onebook which will consist of approxintely 600 pages with 150 photos, hard cover,indexed, and divided by family with minimum repetition of those in connectingfamilies. The approximate price will be $25 to $30 plus postage, depending onfinal length of the manuscript.

Ve THTJQC we have found the first DeSHAZER who case from France and fought in theRevolution. His line is included in over 250 double-spaced pages along with thedescendants from proven ancestor John DaSHAZER born 1766, Virginia.

Our EAUBIOH line case about 1710 and his wife's family has been traced to the1400*s in Germany. This is told in 68-doublo-spaced pages mainly on our directline and their children.

Ve were stymied on the DOUGLASS line because we don't knew the first name ofGranny GREEN's husband but have new Information on their migration from Tennesseeto Oregon, related in over 75 doubto-spaced pages.

The HOVLBTT line was a thrilling surprise with our direct line from ThomasHOWLETT born about 1606, England, who came to Massachusetts In I63O with GovernorVlnthrop's Fleet. There is over 150 double-spaced pages including sons on theMARKVOOD family.

Vith 132 sen named George Gthe first name of George Cpages at the publishers.

coming from Germany about 1770 and not knowing8 wife, we only have about 115 double-spaced

The HXUi line extends back to the English grandfather of Robert HILL who cameto Virginia in 1642 and the publishers already have 130 double-spaced pages.

The HAJBiS legend baa sot been proved, but if It Is true, it goes back to thewife of King Henry VIZ, England. Ve need toe mme of Samuel's (1772-08185*0parents for the connecting link. Ve have UiZ double-spaced -?agesrl for thepublishers. Including family legend pedigree charts.

THE NESBITT SOCIETY

Background

Nesbitt is recognised as a name of ancient Scots origin. There are manyspellings of the name. The family name has ties to Northern and Western Europe.The ancient family of Nisbet in Scotland is recognized in Scotland's heraldictradition, church life, government and judicial history. Over the last 800 yearspersons bearing the name have emigrated to Canada, England, France, Ireland, NorthernIreland, Norway, the United States of America and many parts of the world.

The Nesbitts or Nisbets of both the old world and the new world left their markson arts, commerce, education, government, industry, language, literature, law, medicine,religion, science and social service.

One of the foremost Nisbets of the old world was Alexander Nisbet the Herald,1657-1725. He is regarded as "the ablest writer on Heraldry in the English language."(Andrew Ross, Marchmont Herald, and Francis J. Grant, Carrick Pursuivant. "AlexanderNisbet's Heraldic Plates." Edinburgh, 1892.) The goal of Alexander Nisbet's heraldic.endeaver was,

"To flatter no man, but fairly and truly to collect from authentic documents,seals, tombs and other monuments, whatsoever may tend to the honour of theKing and country in general, and what may be for the further advantage andsatisfaction of many private families."

THE NESBITT SOCIETY was created in the spirit of Alexander's credo.3:0th ANNIVERSARY OF JOHN NISBET OF L0UD0UK — 1983 marks the 300th anniversary ofthe execution in Kilmarnock of John Nisbet of Loudoun. Jofax Nisbet vae a procinantcovenanter. The date was ntemoriallzed in cerencnie6 in KiLnaraock at the stoaethat marks the location. Re was executed, according to the Inscription on the stone,April 14, 1683. (For further intonation see Study Aid 13, "Kirdock Nisbet.")

HN LETTERS OF INCUIRY AND GENEALOGY SEARCH LETTERS — For the present it is not possible to answer all inquiries personally. However, every letter received will teanswered personally a6 soon as possible. Ve are very busy setting up the S3 Newsletterand the NN Gathering. We will carry in the NN Newsletter appropriate informationfrom letters received.

Gags Family History

Tan yeara ago a Gaga family bibia belonging to my great-grandfather, Joaaph Libby Qaga, came Into my possession. Thla Inspired my Interest In my anceetry. What started aa a briefhiatory of my Gage ancestors, grew into a book entitled Johng«M Of Ipayich - Hla En.ll.h Ancaatrv. and Some American Be.acepdaptff. While roaoarching thia family hiatory I foundnumeroua errors in Gage genealogy. These errora have beancarried into many genealogies, and I felt a need for theircorrection. Now I want to share my new findinga with you.
