18. Stupid, Stupid, Stupid [1]
I did a bunch of genealogy work a while ago, and then let it sit for a couple years. In the last few weeks, I've been trying to get back into the swing of the work. Last night was my second trip back to the FHC trying to dig into my standard dead ends. There are two "dead ends" that I have on my mother's side, both from New York and both around 1800. I have so little information on them that it has been easy to commit it all to memory as well as the database/notebook records. Last week, I dug through t

If so, that Civil War-era ancestor may have been aboard the steamship Sultana when it exploded and sank 9 miles north of Memphis, TN on 27 April 1865. Nearly 1,500 of the 2,300 aboard ultimately died and----except for obscure National Archive military records----most until now have been virtually unknown and "lost" today to modern genealogists! But no longer! Now you can search a *FREE* database of 2,090 known passengers, most of whom were paroled Union soldiers from the states of OH, TN, IN, MI, KY and
