It was another full genealogy day, and there was no Padres game. good thing - I got some things done.
* Read email and blogs, found that Blogger was working, and wrote Treasure Chest Thursday - My Grandparents Church Marriage Certificate. Quickly wrote New Mocavo.com Major Features, made a GEDCOM file and tried out the tree upload. Failed, so emailed Cliff and they had it fixed in an hour or so.
* Started in researching my FGS FORUM column due today. Got it pretty much done after lunch. Went off to the store for my prescription, bananas and ribs. Strange diet, eh?
* Back by 2 p.m. to read, then wrote Uploading My Tree to Mocavo.com. Worked sme more on the article. Answered some email. Added some Find-a-Grave burials with sources to my database for Seaver folks.
* went in at 5 p.m. to read the paper, watch TV, and we ate dinner (ribs and peas, yum!).
* Back online at 6:30 p.m. to read, then wrote CVGS Program Summary - "Migration Patterns" by Susi Pentico . Wrote letter to my pastor. Checked Facebook. Wrote this post.
Genealogy today was 11.5 hours.

My genealogy day - 29 June 2011
It was a very full genealogy day, but I'm not sure that I made much progress on any project.
* Read email and blogs, had trouble with Blogger uploading images, finally wrote (Not So) Wordless Wednesday - Post 159: Airplanes over Coronado and then found my 1940 census places and wrote Using the 1940 Census ED Finding Tool and set it for later in the morning.
* Gathered my stuff and off to the library for the CVGS meeting at 12 noon. Susi presented Migration Patterns.
* Home by 2:45 p.m. to read, corrected the 1940 Census post, checked Facebook, then wrote Adding Photographs to my MyHeritage Family Tree - Post 2.
* Went in at 5 p.m. to watch TV, read the paper, take a nap, eat dinner, and put out the trash.
* Online at 7 p.m. to read, worked on updating the Newton data for the Maine family, checked Facebook, added to the Best Of post, and wrote this post. Blogger went down in the middle of it and didn't post. Arggh.

My genealogy days - 27 and 28 June 2011
Two more fairly full genealogy days, with some progress made on several projects.
1) Monday, 27 June 2011
* Read email and blogs, wrote Amanuensis Monday - Elisha Ward's Affidavit in Thomas Dill's Revolutionary War Pension File and then Answers to my Questions about MyHeritage Trees but set it for later.
* Worked on the third OASIS class presentation and syllabus. Decided to add the Remley data to my master database, since it was done for my aunt's husband's family and is part of my extended tree. Big mistake - found out after doing it that the place names are really messed up and many sources are for a WFT database. Arrgghhhhh. Worked through lunch and into the afternoon to straighten that out by deleting the WFT source, deleting the WFT dates, and trying to standardize place names. Had to combine many entries with different place spellings. Not done - still have several families to do.
* Wrote Pruning My Family Tree - Catherine Lewis after doing a bit more searching. I need to look for the Jonathan Lewis will. Added photos to MyHeritage using the multiple file upload.
* We left at 5 p.m. for El Pollo Loco for dinner, then to the trolley station to go to the Padres game. Got to my seat at 6:05 p.m., and talked to the ushers. Padres won 4-3 over the KC Royals. We were home by 10:45 p.m.
* Read email and blogs, checked Facebook and off to bed by 11:30.
Genealogy today was 9.0 hours.
2) Tuesday, 28 June 2011:
* Read email and blogs, wrote Tuesday's Tip - Use the Google Site Search to Find Results on a Specific Website and then worked on tagging photos to MyHeritage. Failed. Uploaded photos one at a time from the Family Tree tab. Wrote Adding Photographs to my MyHeritage Family Tree - Post 1.
* Answered some email, then finished up the Remley data in the database. I probably have some unresolved places, but I'll find them.
* Wrote The Seasons of my Genealogy Research and then finished up the fourth OASIS class presentation and syllabus.
* Checked Ancestry.com and FamilySearch.org for new databases, and then added about 15 census source citations to my database.
* Went in at 5 p.m. to watch TV, read the paper, and eat dinner. Back online at 6 p.m. to read, play with Google+ a bit, and write What Will the Google+ Project Mean for Genealogy?
* Went in at 7 p.m. to watch the Padres game, read my book, and water the front plants. Padres won 4-2 over KC Royals (now 36-45 at the halfway point in the season. They seem to be improving, won 6 of the last 7, but still in last place the NL Worst.
* Online at 9:30 p.m. to read, add to the Best Of post, and write 1940 Census Searching Tools Announced. Works great!!! Wrote this post.
Genealogy today was 10.0 hours.

My genealogy day - 26 June 2011
It turned into a major genealogy day in the afternoon.
* Read email and blog, and got the Best Of post finished up before going off to church at 9:30 a.m. After church, there was a picnic for the kids and parents from VBS - Linda worked on it so we went and had hamburgers and chips and cookies. I talked genealogy with Dahlia.
* Home by 12:40 p.m. and I immediately jumped into the Scanfest. Got 35 images scanned from the Pentecost photo album, including all of the Auble pictures of my families. Didn't chat a whole lot. Noted that Best of the Genea-Blogs - 19 to 25 June 2011 posted.
* Went in to watch the Padres game, read the paper and take my nap. Padres won 4-1 with 4 runs in the 8th over Atlanta. Watered the back yard too.
* Back online to write CVGS Program Meeting on 29 June - Susi Pentico on "Migration Patterns" and then answered some emails.
* Went in at 5:30 p.m. to have dinner, then watched TV news.
* Back online at 6:15 p.m., read everything, and corrected data errors in my database found through Family Tree Builder's error finder (provided by MyHeritage). Got about 200 looked at and some corrected, plus added some source citations to data found while doing that. Linda called several cousins tonight and I listened to some of it - even got some family data from one of them.
* Started the next Best Of post, checked Facebook and wrote this post.

My genealogy days - 24 and 25 June 2011
Real life intervened these days to a great extent, as did the Padres!
Friday, 24 June 2011:
* Read email and blogs, and noticed that 1940 U.S. Census RFI Q&A posted the night before I intended. Operator error!
* We left at 9:15 a.m. for Mimi's memorial service at Glen Abbey. It was quite nice out on the lawn for the graveside memorial. Some friends from church, and lots of Lynda's family. Then to Spring Valley for a nice reception. Got to meet Brooks, Mimi's grandson, who plays for the Atlanta Braves. What a beautiful family all together to celebrate Mimi's 93 years.
* Home by 2 p.m. to recuperate - read everything, and noted that Genealogy Database Statistics Galore in MyHeritage posted. Went in to read the paper and napped a bit.
* We left at 4:45 p.m. for the trolley to go to the Padres game with Lynda and family. She had 50 tickets. Ate dinner at the Tin Fish and were to our seats in 317 by 6:15 p.m. Visited with friends and Lynda's family all through the game - the Pads won 11-2, and Brooks was up once and lined out to first base.
* Home by 19:45 p.m. on the bus and trolley, read some and went to bed.
Genealogy on Friday was 3.0 hours at most.
Saturday, 25 June 2011:
* Up early to go to the Dolphin breakfast at the Denny's on E Street. I liked it (heck, I like almost every place to eat breakfast).
* Home by 8:45 a.m. to read email and blogs, wrote Surname Saturday - LEWIS (England > RI > NY > Canada) and in the process discovered the will that nearly proves the Catherine Lewis relationship. Cool when that happens!
* Wrote Saturday Night Genealogy Fun - Number #1 Songs for SNGF, and set it for after noon. Wrote one more blog post for next week if I need one.
* Went in at 1:30 p.m. to watch tennis and baseball, read the paper, and took a nap. Up at 3p.m. to read online, do some research for elusives and orphans.
* We left at 4 p.m. for the trolley station to go to the Padres game. stopped at Panera for dinner and took it with us. Got to :Petco just as game started due to trolley repairs. Pads lost 10-1 to the Braves. Brooks struck out in pinch-hitting appearance.
* Home on bus and trolley by 9:30 p.m., read everything, updated the Best Of post, checked Facebook and wrote this post.

* Read email and blogs, transcribed and posted Treasure Chest Thursday - Georgianna (Kemp) Auble's Death Certificate.

It was a pretty full genealogy day...I got quite a bit done.

* Wrote More Thoughts on "Scientific" and "Traditional" Genealogy and then worked in MyHeritage for awhile and posted Finding Common Ancestors in the MyHeritage Family Tree.

My genealogy day - 21 June 2011
It was another full day of genealogy excitement here at the Genealogy Cave...and my Padres finally won another game!
* Read email and blogs, then wrote Tamura Jones Guest Post: Scientific and Traditional Genealogy and Tuesday's Tip - Use the Google News Archive Search (and set it for before noon). Added data to database from email. Got cleaned up.
* Edited the Wikis for Genealogy presentation some more, and made a two page syllabus. Had lunch.
* Decided to work in MyHeritage smart matches since I was getting so many emails. Yikes! over 198,000 of them. Deleted my two old trees on MyHeritage so that my desktop database will sync with the MyHeritage database. Captured some screens from the Smart Matches, and wrote Smart Matching in MyHeritage. Finished off the requested matches (only about 300 total) - sure gets boring!
* Answered some emails, added some data to the RootsMagic database, then went in to watch the Padres game at 4:10 p.m. Read the paper, then Family Tree Magazine, ate dinner, and the Pads won 5-4 over the RedSox in Boston (broke 6 game losing streak...now 31-44).
* Back online at 8 p.m. to read, answer some email, add to the Best Of post, check Facebook, and write this post.

My genealogy day - 20 June 2011
Stayed home for a genealogy day today - a pretty good one!

* Added WikiTree charts to my Wikis for Genealogy presentation, and edited the works. Need critical review and syllabus, but getting close to finished. Had lunch.
* Read everything, then wrote Thoughts on Classical and Scientific Genealogy.
* Checked Facebook, set AncestorSync off again (it failed to save after 10 hours...) and added the Bloetgoet info from the New Netherland connections articles to the database.
* Went in at 4:15 p.m. to watch the Padres game, read the paper, water the front plants, and eat dinner. Pads lost 14-5 but it was 3-3 in the 7th. Meltdown.
* Back online at 8 p.m. to read, add some census sources to the database (and fix notes too), add to the Best Of post, and write this post.

My genealogy day - 19 June 2011
Not too much of a genealogy day - a little blogging, some searching, some database work, some email.
* Read email and blogs, got the Best Of post ready to go before going off to church at 9:30.
* We had a meeting at church, then shopping and lunch at Costco, so home by 1:15 p.m. just in time to see my Padres lose in the 9th to the Twins. 5 straight losses, now 30-43.
* Got the Best of the Genea-blogs posted, and tweeted, and went in to watch golf and take a nap. My daughter called, and then watched TV for awhile.
* Came online at 3:30 p.m. to post Jamboree Geneabloggers - MyHeritage Free PremiumPlus Membership is Valid until 20 June. Checked Facebook, answered some emails, and worked a bit more in MyHeritage and Family Tree Builder.
* Called for dinner at 5:30 p.m., then watched TV and read the paper until 6:30 p.m.
* Back online to read, and worked in the database adding marriage data with sources from Montana and Idaho from FamilySearch. Looked for some of Maggie's ancestors too. Finally, worked in the Google News Archive Search for Seaver articles. Found quite a few new ones and transcribed and sourced them.
* Added to the Best Of post for next week, and wrote this post.
