1. CIG Meeting - Wrong Month!!! [1]
All, Well I must be having brain fades!! The meeting is June 16, not August 16 for Ted Steele's review of RootsMagic. Sorry about that. Alan Rogg

FYI - From Ilene Murray Stay tuned tomorrow to KWMU (90.7) from 11 to noon. (Monday I think) They are doing an hour on genealogy. Mardean Steinmetz from the Family History Library, either Christie Hughes or Joyce Loving (if she's back in town), Ed and I are going to be on. I forgot to tell all of you on Saturday, so feel free to pass the word on. It was arranged by Betty Landow, our JGS publicity chair, but we'll be talking about all St. Louis genealogical resources.

3. RE: GEDCOM files [1]
Vernon, I looked around and it looks like there was a utility written back around 1993 by the LDS, that would convert a CSV or fixed file to a GEDCOM. It was named FIX2GED, but I have done some searches and have not had any luck finding the program.

6. RE: ST-LOUIS-GENEALOGICAL-CIG-D Digest V03 #21 [1]
Wayne, From the subject line, it looks like you are getting the Digest mode, so there would be attachments for the e-mail for that day. If you are using Outlook Express 6.0, and have not changed the default settings, then it will not allow attachments. To check or change this, go to the "Tools" menu and select "Options", then select the "Security" tab and look to see if the "Do not allow attachments to be saved or opened that could potentially be a virus". If this is checked, then no attachments will be all
7. Re: GEDCOM files [1]
I bit the bullet and played around with some sample GEDCOM files to see how I can get basic information into GEDCOM. Basic lists of names with simple dates and locations are not too hard using the capabilities of spreadsheets to construct special text, but has been suggested, anything more complex gets to be too much trouble. I had heard that a program called LDS companion will do this, but I asked the author and he said it would not. Vernon Trevathan ----- Original Message ----- Wrom: KHJYFMYXOEAIJJPH

9. Re: ST-LOUIS-GENEALOGICAL-CIG-D Digest V03 #21 [1]
Hi, It seems like every message that I get lately from the society has an error msg that says "OE has removed access to an unsafe attachment". Do you think this is caused by a security setting on my Outlook Express or really something wrong with the attachment? I don't receive this message on any other of the 30 to 40 emails I receive daily. Thanks, Wayne ----- Original Message ----- From: To: Sent: Wednesday

11. August Computer Interest Group (CIG) Meeting on the 16th [1]
FYI, This is just a friendly reminder that the August CIG Meeting will be held at the St. Louis Genealogical Societies Office this month, and NOT at the County Library. The address of the office is #4 Sunnen Dr. Suite 140. This months meeting will be a demonstration of the new genealogy program "RootsMagic", presented by Ted Steele. As usual, we will have a chat time starting at 7pm and Ted's presentation will be at 7:30. This is the first CIG meeting at the office facilities, so if you do not know wher

Vernon, > Is there a way to convert names in text or spreadsheet files to GEDCOM so I can import them into genealogy programs without having to type them in? Ideally I would enter the names, birth and death dates and locations. I could fix the relationships manually after the names were in the program.

15. Digital cameras and scanners [1]
Folks, At a recent Society meeting, either the general meeting or the CIG meeting, someone was asking about digital cameras. Another question that seems to recur in the CIG meetings is about scanners. FWIW, the May 2003 issue of Consumer Reports magazine has several articles on digital matters - including reviews and ratings of digital cameras and scanners. Enjoy. Bob Emnett

Thanks so much. The online soundex systems, were only giving the soundex code, but now I see that rootsweb has a translator also, which gives the variations in spelling. Thanks so much.

Hi Lroman: There are two excellent online databases here: Missouri Birth and Death Databases, pre-1910 If there is a death certificate, you should also be able to download it at this site. http://www.sos.mo.gov/archives/resources/birthdeath/ Also, you should check the St. Louis probate records. Early records are downloadable here: St. Louis Probate Court Digitization Project, 1801-19000: http://www.sos.mo.gov/archives/stlprobate/ Both of these sites are TERRIFIC resources.

Hi John, Regarding the cost of Ancestry - I bought a copy of Family Tree Maker for $30 which came with a three month subscription to Ancentry - to continue the subcription for a full year the cost would have been $159 so I cancelled. I was at Office Max two nights ago and saw that they have a more expensive version of FTM with a one year subscription for a total of $80. I was so amazed at this that I had my husband check the box to be sure that I wasn't seeing things. Can you guess how I'm

Just a reminder to the group that both St. Louis County Library Headquarters Special Collections and St. Louis Public Library History and Genealogy Room have free subscriptions available to Ancestry for their patrons. In addition, StLGS members are welcome to come by the office where we also teach classes on Ancestry and maintain a subscription. If you can't afford a subscription, by all means, avail yourself of places where you can access Ancestry for free. However, if you are actively researching,
25. Re: [ST-LOUIS-GENEALOGICAL-CIG] ST-LOUIS-GENEALOGICAL-CIG Digest, Vol 2, Issue 15 [1]
Jean, Glad this helped! It's a wonderful resource. My husband's ancestor's records were from the 1870s. I was able to download the entire probate file, page by page, and print it. The scanned page is probably as clear as the original. I downloaded 40 or so pages for my husband's ancestor. I already had a copy of the will, but the estate packet had so much more information in it. I'm in Washington, DC this week, so I can't check my books at home, but I would call St. Louis City Hall and ask. If you get so
