From: kevin2@falcon.cc.ukans.edu (Kevin K. Stephenson)
Nyla-
Thought I would tell you that I also use Family Tree Maker, and I just
updated to
version 4.0. It is a great program, and the new upgrade is much improved!!!
Among other things, you can now store SOURCE DATA, it's compatible with
GEDCOM version 5.0, and it has a provision in its 'on-line' option to publish
your tree to a website at Family Tree Maker. Others can access the page
without having any
genealogy software!
Anyone with version 3.4 or higher can use the FTM bulletin boards, and there
is a
NETSEARCH feature which looks for surnames out on the net in version 4!!!
I'm probably biased, but I highly recommend this program. For those
purchasing it in the store, I don't think you can even get version 3.4 yet.
To get the latest version, order it online from Broderbund Software at:
http://www.familytreemaker.com
Also: for groups who are seriously into genealogical research,
Broderbund is
sponsoring a grant program and will award research grant money to someone
pursuing something which will add to the knowledge of the genealogical
community. I put in a request for a grant for the Rudd research group that I
belong to, in order to fund a search for the name of the first 'American'
Rudd's wife. Lt. Jonathan Rudd, one of the first settlers of Saybrook
Colony, in what is now Connecticut, was married in the winter of 1646-7 at a
place later named "Bride Brook" in honor of his bride, but no one knows who
she was. The ceremony was performed by Governor John Winthrop, the younger,
first Gov. of Connecticut.
My grandfather, Ralph Burnett, married Ethel Rudd, who was the one who got
me interested in this stuff in the first place, so I thought I might try to
help find out this bit of fairly important historical trivia.
Nyla-You and I and Ricky Burnett and Sharon Crawford have discussed the
different
Burnett lines and you know that I'm related to the George Burnet line, which
includes
Peter Hardeman Burnett, first governor of California, and James Cunningham
Burnett. We know that the John Sr. line and the George Burnet line both
came from Scotland. Does anyone know exactly how these two lines tie
together? We're talking about a pair of brothers, probably, but at what
generation? Does anyone know? I'd like to know exactly how I'm related to
the rest o' yas!!!!

Nyla,
Program used: Gene 4.1.1 Shareware $15.00 (MAC Format)
I run it off the CD it came on (Software of the Month Club) so it doesn't
take up
HD space, only the file I generated (over 2400 names and growing).
I've been using it for about 5 months, since I started my Tree and have been
happy with it so far.
I like the grids and relation charts it creates. I can save them as PICT
files and
email them out, tho the MAC/PC thing is sometimes tricky, that is not the
software's fault It accepts GEDCOM files from any source AOK, tho if I send
a GEDCOM to a PC user it requires translation work that is probably a pain in
the patoot (they shoulda bought a MAC).
It puts everything in index card type format which is neat and easy to read.
I might wish it gave me all the info on every name in an Ancestor Grid, but
it only gives the principal name b. and d. dates/places--not for the spouse.
On the other hand that is economical for printing and screen-size purposes.
If I had one piece of paper large enuf (printer to match) I could print out
every one
of my ancestors at once. <omagod> Limits are not a bad thing after all;>
I've thought about getting Family Tree Maker, but if my $15.00 toy is ok, why
spend $80-90? Maybe in the future, not just yet...
Other Matters: Where is that BARNARD/BURNETT from/dates?
Are folks here aware of the PACE Network site for the Pace Family? There is
also a Clan Ramsey web page. They make no distinction between RAMSAY/RAMSEY.
Til next time...

Does anyone show a Mary Emma Turner who married Oscar Stanley Dunn. Don't
know when they married, but they had several children; Mattie Louise, J.L.,
Margie, Mary, Myrtle, Bessie and James. Mattie was born in Roanoke,
Al/Randolph Co. March 12, 1914. Original birth certificate showed name as
Dwra (or something like that). I think the family spent several years in
the LaGrange, GA/Troup Co. area.

I have an Harriet Amanda Buzzard Turner b7-21-1839 d 9-19-1841. She only
lived 2
years. Could she be who your Amanda was named after? Her father was Benjamin
Turner b.Maryland 4-26-1792 d.9-22-1841.He married a Racheal King .Their
Children were Pamela B11-23-1818 d 3-27-1887, Jane King b.10-4-1820
d.3-21-1902, Mary Buzzard b- 7-11-1823 d1-9-1905, Andrew Buzzard, b 6-4-1825

Buzzard b3-22-1836 d 7-17-1840 and finally Harriet Amanda Buzzard Turner
7-21-1839 d 9-19-1841. All these children were Turner's. It is evident that
the Buzzard name must be a family name from the King side or the Turner side.
I don't know where the Buzzard's fit in. These records came from a family
bibles in Bettsville Oh. Much Turner and King names. Any info would be
appreciated as I can't get past Benjamin Turner. Benjamin served with Major
Croghan and Gen Harrison in the war of 1812.

Where in GA are your Turners from? My gggrandmother was Mary Jane Turner who
married Thomas Flynn (born in Ireland). Mary Jane born SC @1827. I believe
her father to be Aaron Turner. they were in Henry Co, GA by 1843, as I have
a copy of the deed where Thomas Flynn bought land from Aaron Turner, Sr. My

I upgraded to version 3.01 of Family Tree Maker last year on CD ROM. If
there's
a 4.0 version I'll upgrade again. I've really enjoyed the FTM. Most helpful
are the CD
ROM's of their World Family Trees that you can purchase that are compilations
of
everyone who's bought the program and researched their ancestors. They run
it off on a disk and send it in. FTM puts everyone's data on CD's and offers
them for sale. I've found a lot of "missing" info on parts of the family
where I was really stumped from other enthusiasts and heartily recommend it
to everyone. It's really user friendly and there is lots of space and
different areas you can put information. I can even scan photographs of my
ancestors into the FTM "scrapbook".
I'd like to get in touch with Johnny Turner from your last contact and see
what he
has. I'm stuck on my Turner line from down here in Texas!

Nyla,
I have used the following genealogy programs:
Brothers Keeper for windows 95
Can download from the web and try before purchasing and as far as I know you
must
purchase from the author--I have never seen it commercially advertised.
Inexpensive but I don't remember the cost--less than $40.00 I think
Easy to use. The person creating it is a genealogist and knows what is
needed.
Best feature--printed charts--anything you can imagine in
ancestor/report/descendant
charts.
I don't use it as my primary program but keep it for producing printouts.
My principle program is Family TreeMaker for Windows from Broderbund--Banner
Blue
Division.
Can download trial version.
Delux is about $60.
Easy to install and use--has direct online link through your server--is
linked to use of
world Family Tree resources--which can get expensive if you buy the CD's as
fast as they publish them--up to nine now.
You can submit your tree to them to be published as one of their World Family
Trees. I personally have a bit of trouble about letting someone else make
money from my work--I don't mind "giving". It has been very useful to me,
however--I have found connections among other family trees in their
collection.
Family Origins from Parsons Technology
inexpensive--abt $29
good charts
easy to use
I find that Gedcom's produced by this program are sometimes not totally
compatable with other programs--that may just be me--but I bought it to read
a Gedcom someone sent me created by Family Origins that I could not make work
on either of the other two.
If one were not interested in the resources of Family Treemaker
online--Brothers Keeper is an excellent tool.

You can't beat Brothers Keeper, the one software recommended by genealogists
above all others, and written in several different languages. Written by a
genealogist for genealogists as well as the novice. You can't go wrong, try
before you buy and it isn't limited or crippled in any way. The shareware
version is full featured, yet the registered version contains more. The
cost to register is $49, one free upgrade, further upgrades at very low
cost, about $10. No, I have no monetery interest, I'm just a loyal user.
Net Sites for Brother's Keeper
For the Windows version:
http://web.wingsbbs.com/brotherskeepr/
http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/Brothers_Keeper/
For the new release of the DOS version:
http://www.coastnet/simtel.com/msdos/genealogy.html When the page
loads, use the search engine and ask for bk5. Download all five files.
http:home.sprynet.com/sprynet/steed/
I have used several genealogy programs over the years, some of them quite
good, but Brother's Keeper has been the easiest and most productive of them
all. It has features not found in some of the others. You can set up
hotkeys that save hours of typing, print your material out in story book
style using the Register report , and in the Windows version you can choose
your favorite word processor to edit and write text files. You can print
index cards, group sheets, pedigree charts, ascendancy charts, etc. You can
import photos, import and export ged-com files, do anything that other
programs do that cost much more. There is a discussion list devoted to the
program and monitored by John Steed, the writer of the program, who answers
the 'hard' questions posted to the list. To join:
Send a message to BK5-L-Request@emcee.com with the command subscribe in
