Have a look and remember, early Virginia was Augusta County that went to the Mississippi, and look at geographical genealogies, showing parent counties. One Patrick Bodkin, death at 70 yoa, born in Ireland.
Births, deaths, and marriages are choices. It just so happens I have found a James Bodkin that married Mary Westfall in "Harrison County, VA, 1784, (now W V) a picture of their marriage is on. Scroll down past the "Search" box and select 'Browse all published collections.' There are many choices, so select pre 1700 or 1700-1749, etc., Continent, or Collections. Also, we were British Colonies before becoming states, so try first with no state.Īlso, on familysearch, the genealogies at the bottom of searches are USER SUBMITTED. It is best to do your own digging and best to begin with '' starting only with surname and year you believe to be approximate.

Public libraries have '' and it is free, and to print an item may cost 10 or 15 cents using your library card number, or you can download to a USB (be careful to only use one for that purpose to avoid viruses), or take photo with your cell phone, showing source. All tools have advantages and limitations, so its good to hear the experience of others. Copying tree info is so much easier and faster, but most people don't consider the lack of value in unproven garbage.Īncestry is one of many tools in the toolbox. Gets complicated and takes huge amounts of time to make progress while trying to maintain genealogical proof standard. The former really takes careful analysis of family history and sources, because there are so few of them, in order to confirm relevance and then to extrapolate secondary conclusions. The nature of research in 1700's is radically different than 1800's. I have done several research projects in the last few years, some solo, some collaborative. Just one item, like a published book or a source, like a Will, can get you started. Sometimes you will find important info, or at least hints. Good first step is to survey the internet, like you described. I have never paid a fee for any pay site.

Has anyone else found anything on that they could not find for free elsewhere? So far almost all of my research (at least for people of the 1800s and 1900s) has come from records on FamilySearch. Would it help me to buy a subscription to in this case? Ages and ship names would be very helpful, for example.
It also says buying a membership would give me access to more data. The very limited record preview gives non-members says that they landed in Maryland and one in Virginia. They were named James, Andrew, Martin, and it appears there was a second James. There are a few Bodkins that emigrated to America from Ireland in about the year 1680. Last night I decided to check despite not having a subscription. Family trees have claimed that Richard the third was born in 1710 in Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, or Galway, Ireland. There were apparently Bodkins living in Maryland around the time they would have been alive so I think it's possible Richard "the third," if he even was the third at all, was born there. I've found random things on various websites that ultimately don't lead back to the two unsourced Richards. The only sources I've found for them are unsourced family trees that seem to have been copy pasted throughout the internet. I'm also looking for evidence of Richard Bodkin the second's existence, as he and his supposed father Richard Bodkin the first have no sources to back up their existence. I'm trying to find out when my Bodkin ancestors came to America.
