Mondays with Myrt are Back!

 Photo by DearMyrtle on DearMyrtle Archives


I first heard of the news on Randy Seaver's Genea-Musings blog. The details of everything are linked on his blog post. But, I will say the live event will be on YouTube. As opposed to attending live on Zoom and the recording on YouTube afterwards. (And I know it has been live-streamed on YouTube before on occasions but without viewers in the Zoom meeting).

Sidenote: Last year, I noticed her original YouTube channel or account was deleted for some reason, and I couldn’t find a public announcement saying that had occurred. But on her new channel, past recordings are starting to appear, which is great. So she likely archived hundreds of virtual recordings.


*Update : I watched a little bit of the replay on Youtube. It was stated by DearMyrtle herself, that she had Daniel Loftus, a panelist, archive her YT videos and deleted her YT channel, it is now slowly re-uploading them again.

Recently, I received a book called  Images of America-Vestal by Vestal's town historian, Margaret Hadsell.    Here are my personal thoughts on the book. Table of Contents Acknowledgments Introduction 1. Prehistoric Vestal 2. Vestal 3. Ross Corners 4. Tracy Creek 5. Twin Orchards 6. Vestal Center 7. Willow Point 8. Mile Wide Summary The book mainly shows photos of prominent settlers and locations around the town of Vestal. It briefly mentions pre-Vestal and the families, churches, schools, businesses, etc. within parts of Vestal. Evaluation I liked how the author inserted plat maps into the book. At the beginning of each chapter, there is a section of the entire map in which part of it will be "zoomed in" on specific areas of Vestal. I was a bit disappointed with this book because I expected more context, though I did love ...

Saturday Night Genealogy Fun- Which Ancestors Would You Like to Talk to?

It's  Saturday Night  -  time for more  Genealogy Fun!   Your mission, should you decide to accept it (cue the Mission Impossible music here) is to: 1)  We sometimes find we have questions we would love to discuss with our ancestors - the who, what, when, why and how questions that might help with our genealogy research. 2)  Which ancestors would you like to talk to?  What questions would you ask?   3)  Tell us about it in your own blog post, in a comment to this blog post, or in a post on Facebook. There are so many ancestors I would love to talk to, but I will only list my top 5 ancestors. 💗 1)   My first choice would be my great-grandmother, Clara Loretta Scott Armstead (1904-1998). I would ask her what her biological mother's name is, the reasoning behind why her brothers were placed in an orphanage, and why her ex-husband, Anthony Tony Armstead, was abusive toward her sons and possibly ...
