This presentation describes the variety of resources available to find your ancestors in pre-1846 Texas. Several case studies show how using a combination of these records can provide a picture of your republic ancestor.\n\nResearching in the Texas General Land Office\nLearn how to research your early Texas ancestors in the records of the Texas General Land Office. This presentation will include an overview of the various types of land grants issued by Spain\, Mexico\, the Republic of Texas\, and the State of Texas\, as well as several supporting collections at the GLO that are excellent resources for genealogical research. Also included will be a highlight of the resources available on the GLO website\, and a walk through of how to search the records of the GLO online.\n\nResearching Texas Ancestors during the Civil War and Reconstruction\nThe time period between 1860 and 1876 offers Texas researchers unique opportunities for 19th century research using records created only during these years.\n\nBonus Session: Late Night At The Library\nThe Genealogy Division of the J. Erik Jonsson Central Library (selected by Family Tree Magazine as one of the Top 10 Public Libraries in the US for genealogy research) will remain  open on Friday evening\, August 7\, from 5-10 pm\, exclusively for Summer Symposium attendees to do family history research. Professional librarians from the Division and DGS volunteers will be available to offer assistance. A light supper will be provided by DGS.\n\nSaturday’s Topics: \nResearching on the Portal of Texas History\nThe Portal is a gateway to Texas history materials. You may discover anything from an ancestor mentioned in a 19th century Texas newspaper to a rare historical map. Learn how to explore the site to discover more about your 19th century Texas ancestor. \n\nManuscript Collections\nA Source of Hidden Gems: Many museums and universities house collections of original documents\, such as diaries and journals; personal and family papers; financial\, business\, and legal records; maps\, newspapers\, pamphlets\, and broadsides; and photographs reflecting the lives and activities of government officials\, politicians\, soldiers\, bankers\, jurists\, planters\, merchants\, physicians\, clergy\, educators\, slaves\, and homemakers. Discover some of the riches to be found in materials from Texas repositories. This presentation demonstrates how to find manuscripts and original documents and the hidden gems\, which can move your research forward. \n\nResearching in Special Collections of the University of Texas at Arlington Library\nUTA Special Collections collects historical materials relating to Texas\, the U.S. War with Mexico (1846-1848)\, and the cartographic history of Texas and the Gulf of Mexico. Learn how to use these records in your research. \n\nResearching in the Dallas Public Library Texas/Dallas Collection\nThe collection of materials at the Texas/Dallas History & Archives Division is one of the largest of its kind in the nation.

He has appeared at many national and regional events: This will be his first appearance in North Texas. \n  \nLecture Topics: \n\nShe Came From Nowhere – A Case Study Approach To Difficult Genealogical Problems\nDeconstructing Your Family Tree – Re-Evaluating The ‘Evidence’\nIncorporating Social History Into Your Research\nMedical Genealogy: A Primer Of Diseases That Killed Our Ancestors And The Epidemics They Lived Through\n\nSchedule and Location \nThis event will be held at the Dallas Public Library: J.

Lacopo was born and raised in northern Indiana surrounded by extended family always\nwilling to tell tall tales. Intrigued by his maternal family’s claim to be kinfolk of Abraham Lincoln\, and\nhis paternal family’s stories of murder and mayhem\, he took to genealogical research in 1980 to\nsubstantiate these family stories. \nAlthough a budding genealogist in the 1980s\, Michael completed his doctorate in veterinary medicine in\n1991\, while still spending time honing his research skills. As befitting a doctor\, Michael treats his\ngenealogical research as he would medicine – carefully\, methodically and completely. In 2013\, Michael\nretired from his medical career to pursue genealogical research full-time as a profession. He has\ncontributed to numerous periodicals and has helped numerous people in their quests to locate their\nrelatives – living and dead. \nMichael’s interests and strengths include Mennonite research\, German and Swiss research\, especially as it\npertains to the 18th century immigration to America\, among many other topics. Having ancestors from\nmany geographic locales as well as immigrants spanning the 17th century to the 20th century\, Michael\nhas a wide variety of proficiencies. He believes that as genealogists we should tell the tales or our\nancestors and is a vocal proponent for learning the social history that interweaves our ancestors into the\nfabric of the past. \nHe has presented lectures and programs at several National Genealogical Society Conferences and\nFederation of Genealogical Society conferences\, as well state genealogical societies\, the Palatines to\nAmerica Conference\, and many local and regional family history meetings. \nRead more about Dr Lacopo’s on his Social Media outlets: \n\nBlog\nFacebook page\nWeb Site\n\nPublicity \n\nPress Release\nFlyer\nTri-Fold Mailer

SUMMARY:DNA Special Interest Group
DESCRIPTION:The program Topic is  X Chromosome. The group will look at Fan Charts\, Pedigree Charts and Ahnentafel Reports (some times called Ancestor Reports) to assist in finding which of your lines could have X matches. \nIn preparation\, you can read SIG Leader Mic Barnette’s article on his website: “Finding X Chromosomes“. In Mic’s article there is a list of ahnantafel numbers depicting where on anyone’s pedigree chart the x-chromosome matches. Additionally\, there are other links that you can read and follow for more information about X chromosomes. \nYou might want to print out a ahnentafel report and either fan chart or pedigree chart if your genealogy program can do that. Write the ahnentafel numbers on your fan or pedigree chart. Bring these to class. \nHere is a link to a blank fan chart.

SUMMARY:General Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Join us starting at 10:30 for hospitality and mingling. The business meeting starts at 11:00\, followed by our featured speaker around 11:30. \nSteven Butler is a Dallas native whose family first came to Texas in 1846 and then arrived in Dallas in 1891\, unless you count his third cousin six times removed\, John Neely Bryan\, who got here some fifty years earlier. \nDoctor Butler is an Associate Professor of History at Richland College in Dallas and Collin College in Plano. He earned his Ph.D. in Transatlantic History at the University of Texas at Arlington. In his capacity as historian and writer he has contributed ten articles since 1989 to Legacies: A History Journal for Dallas and North Central Texas and presented two papers at the annual Dallas History Conference. Sixteen of his articles have been published in the U.S. History textbook currently being used by Richland College students. In 2004 his book From Water Supply to Urban Oasis was used as the basis for the permanent displays at the White Rock Lake Museum. In 1998 Doctor Butler was an unpaid but credited advisor to the PBS documentary The U.S.-Mexican War and in 2006 he appeared in a documentary about the State of Fair of Texas called “A Fair to Remember.” From time-to-time he shows up on KERA-TV (Channel 13) whenever the station needs to fill ten-minutes and uses his “Art and Seek” program appearance about the art of Fair Park\, which originally aired in October 2009. \nIn addition and more importantly in regard to this presentation\, Doctor Butler is an experienced family historian (a term he prefers to “genealogist”) who has spent as much of his spare time as he could over the past forty years tracking down his ancestors. \n HOW TO FIND YOUR ENGLISH CONVICT ANCESTOR \nDuring the Colonial period\, largely after 1718\, some 50\,000 convicts were “transported” in chains to America to relieve the pressure on England’s overcrowded prisons. Most of these unwilling immigrants ended up as indentured servants in the tobacco colonies. In this presentation\, Professor Steven Butler will relate how he unexpectedly found his own convict ancestor and will show you how you can use the Internet to see if you have a “black sheep” in your family tree too! \n January Meeting Minutes

SUMMARY:MacGen Reunion Group
DESCRIPTION:The main topic will be “Recording DNA Data with Reunion.” I’ve got some good ideas I want to share and I plan to brainstorm with you to find solutions to any other ways you want to record your info. Barbara had an interesting DNA fan chart question which we’ll go over. \nAlso\, we will have a brief demo on exporting from Family Tree Maker into Reunion. I’m sure you’ve heard by now that Ancestry is no longer going to support FTM. \nThere will be other bits and pieces covered as well if we have time\, including: \n– How to turn off the microphone when finished using Siri for dictation.\n– Adding a re-marriage to a first wife after divorcing the second wife.\n– Attaching media files correctly.\n– Using Tags to facilitate quick searches.

SUMMARY:DNA Special Interest Group
DESCRIPTION:The Dallas Genealogical Society DNA Interest Group (DIG) will meet on Thursday\, March 17\, 2016 in the Hamon Room (5th floor) of the J. Erik Jonsson Central Library from 6:00 p.m to 7:30 p.m. \nCelebrate your DNA ethnic heritage on St. Patrick’s Day as Mic Barnette\, SIG Leader\, will discuss ethnicity results found in FTDNA (MyOrigins)\, Ancestry (Ethnicity Estimate)\, and 23andMe (Ancestry Composition).  Review your DNA results and bring your questions.  For example\, do siblings have the same ethnicity results? Why? Why not? \nRemember to try out GedMatch.  We will continue with its tools in April. Jean Larson will be our presenter in May. \nDaylight savings time today reminds us that summer is on the way.  We will discuss whether or not to meet in June\, July and August as DGS general meetings and some of the other SIGs take a break.
