SUMMARY:Meeting of the Connecticut Ancestry Society
DESCRIPTION:“Here Comes The 1950 U.S. Census! What To Expect\,” presentation by Joel Weintraub. \nThe U.S. 1950 census will become public on April 1\, 2022. Joel will prepare us for its debut by covering what is a census\, who uses the census\, census caveats\, how the 1950 census was taken\, training of enumerators\, enumerator instruction manuals\, census sampling\, 1950 population and housing forms\, census questions\, post enumeration codes\, 1950 undercount\, and a summary of the results. Joel will conclude with a discussion on his and Steve Morse’s 1950 census locational tools\, online right now at the stevemorse.org website. Those 1950 utilities took almost 8 years to produce with the help of under 70 volunteers\, involve 230\,000 or so searchable 1950 census district definitions with about 79\,000 more small community names added\, and street indexes for over 2\,400 1950 urban areas that correlate with 1950 census district numbers.  \nJoel Weintraub\, a New Yorker by birth\, is an emeritus Biology Professor at California State University\, Fullerton. He became interested in genealogy over 20 years ago\, and volunteered for 9 years at the National Archives in southern California. Joel helped produce location tools for the 1900 through 1950 federal censuses\, and the NY State censuses for NYC (1905\, 1915\, 1925) for the Steve Morse “One-Step” website. He has published articles on the U.S. census and the 72-year rule\, the name change belief and finding difficult passenger records at Ellis Island\, and searching NYC census records with the problems of NYC geography. He has a YouTube channel that has his genealogy (and biology) talks at “JDW Talks”. \nThe program is a CAS member benefit. All those whose memberships are current will be sent the ZOOM link to the event via email. The society’s membership year is June 1st to May 31st.

SUMMARY:Central Massachusetts Genealogical Society Monthly Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Carol McCoy\, Ph.D.\, “The Maine-Canada-Ireland Connection: Seeking Rogers’ Roots.” The event is free for members\, and non-members are welcome with a $2 donation. \nThis enlightening case takes the listener through the extensive search for the supposed Scottish roots and parentage of James C. Rogers of Brewer\, Maine. Ultimately\, we learn that the Rogers were not from Scotland\, but were early Irish emigrants to Nova Scotia\, Canada. The case reinforces the importance of testing data\, seeking primary evidence\, and using a wide range of sources to solve genealogical problems. You will learn ways to overcome false assumptions\, use vital records\, censuses\, deeds\, probate\, court records\, newspapers\, cemetery records\, Internet family trees\, and online resources to discover an ancestor’s migration route and parentage. \nCarol Prescott McCoy\, Ph.D.\, is owner of Find-Your-Roots\, based in Brunswick\, Maine. She lectures\, conducts research\, writes about family history\, and coaches aspiring genealogists\, specializing in New England\, New York\, and West Virginia. McCoy grew up in Bronxville\, New York and lived for many years in New York City. Seeing the error of her ways\, she moved to Maine in 1991. She received her A.B. from Connecticut College and her Ph.D. from Rutgers University.  Carol is a past president of the Maine Genealogical Society\, where she served on the Board of Directors for many years\, and where she served as president of the Greater Portland Chapter. She has presented genealogy workshops and lectures at NERGC Conference from 2009 to 2021\, Boston University Certificate Program (early years onsite class)\, University of Southern Maine\, and at many other places throughout New England.
