Naming traditions in the UK give the 1st daughter the name of the maternal grandmother, 2nd daughter the name of the paternal grandmother, and the 3rd daughter the name of the mother.
Yearbooks, alumni books, and newsletters are stored in university libraries, which genealogists use to find their ancestors, and estimate a date of birth.
Every day, people are born, die, or move. Some countries, like the United Kingdom, have considered scrapping the census altogether and use a real-time database.
It is estimated that approximately half of all Americans have at least one ancestor that came through the Port of New York at Ellis Island.
The first census in 1790 asked only for the name of the head of the household, number of people, gender and skin color of everyone else (slaves) who lived in the household.
Humans are one of the greatest threats to historic objects due to damage from oil, sweat and make-up on our skin, when we don't handle them with nylon gloves.
