2. Famous Twins, Chang and Eng Bunker ~~ Today In Health History .. 16 August 1829 [1]
Famous Twins -- Chang and Eng Bunker were conjoined twins who, on this date in 1829, journeyed to Boston from their native Siam (now known as Thailand) to be displayed. Traveling with agents Robert Hunter and Abel Coffin, Chang and Eng became world-famous, giving lectures and demonstrations here and abroad. The term Siamese twins derives from them, both of whom lived to be 63 years old. They died within hours of each other in 1874, in their adopted home of Surry County, N.C. Usually, Siamese twins are joine

5. computer tricks [1]
Did you know you can usually copy any picture that you want to? Put your cursor over the top of the picture and right click. A box will come up that will have several things in it but amongst them is one that will say save image as. Click on that and your image folder (like My Pictures) will come up. You can label the picture and then click on save and it is yours. You can do this with pictures on the net too but remember the copyright laws. Old pictures taken over 70 years ago are probably not copyrig

7. RE: Another computer trick [1]
Thanks Kipp. Now that is a good tip. Bette > Here's one other tip that is less well known. The are occasions where you have something appear on the screen that you would really like to include in a document. As an example, an error pop-up message when you're trying to describe a problem to a colleague. To do this, do the following: 1) make the window you want to snapshot the active window (the bar at the top of the window will be blue). 2) enter the following sequence of

9. Archie Bunker [1]
Cousins, Any Archie Bunkers in the LA area? The "original" neon sign for "Archie Bunker's Place" from the TV series, is up for bid on Ebay. You're going to need a big wall to hang it, and deep pockets, but if you are named Archie, or married to one, this would be a great present. Good luck gil
10. GEDCOMS [1]
Many people send others GEDCOMS of their family history data. This is a medium where you can transfer data from one program like Family Tree Maker to another like The Master Genealogist. Unfortunately, when you do that you frequently have problems with the data transferring correctly and you may lose some of the data. Several programs can read the back up data from another program and transfer it without a GEDCOM. When you want to exchange data with someone else, first ask which program they are using.
11. errors [1]
I was recently looking for information about Nathan Bunker who was born in 1786 in DE and married Elizabeth Thorne Clement in 1813. Much to my surprise I found numerous references to Nathan Bunker being born in 1650 in Nantucket, the son of George Bunker and Jane Godfrey. George Bunker never had a son named Nathan. George Bunker never lived in Nantucket. His widow moved there with her 2nd husband and George's children. In numerous cases I also found that Nathan Bunker who married Elizabeth Thorne Cleme

Hi all: Microsoft has just released two patches for those people running Windows 2000 as an operating system. KB896423 (a bug in the Windows 2000 print spooler service) KB899588 (a bug in the Windows 2000 Plug and Play code) I encourage everyone using Windows 2000 to run Windows update and apply these patches as soon as possible.

18. Back up data [1]
All computer genealogy programs have a provision that backs up your data. BUT this back up file is an internal file. If your computer is completely wiped out because of a virus, glitch, power surge, or you just get a new computer, you will lose this data. Usually, when you do the back up, it is backed up to a file that has sqz. on it. What you want to do is copy that back up file to a floppy disk or a CD so that you can store the data some place other than your computer. There are several ways to do tha

What should you do with all those documents and files that your grandma collected on the family history? No one else in the family is even remotely interested and you are worried it will all get thrown away. This has happened in my family more than once because kids were not interested. You can copy all of it and send it to the BFA. You can put it all in your computer genealogy program and copy it and send it to the BFA. You can copy everything and give it to a local genealogical society, historical so
