August can be a funny month. Summer is still here, but it is beginning to wind down. The children and grandchildren are getting ready to return to school, vacations are coming to an end, and some of the hottest afternoons are still ahead of us. That makes August a good month to work on family history. Some genealogy projects are perfect for a quiet afternoon indoors. Others give us a reason to visit relatives, take a short trip, or spend time sharing family stories with younger generations. You do not need to finish everything on this list. Choose one or two projects that fit where you are in your research. A few hours spent on a part of your family history that has been neglected can make a real difference. You can also listen to the Ancestral Findings Podcast while you organize photographs, sort records, or work on your family tree...

Back in the fall, Trump's NSPM-7 redirected the FBI, DOJ, and IRS toward "left-wing political violence," opening the door to labeling domestic groups terrorist organizations — despite three independent datasets (New America, CSIS, even the ADL!) showing right-wing violence outpacing left-wing violence by factors of 9-to-1 or greater.  Last week, Rubio's "Ministerial on the Resurgence of Political Terrorism" internationalized this McCarthy reboot. Central to the rhetoric of Rubio and Miller is framing leftist politics as being driven by envy and resentment rather than a response to inequality. Matthew traces this rhetoric, empirically contradicted by relative deprivation research, back through Nietzsche, Scheler, Schoeck, and Rand.  Four days after the Ministerial, the State Department's Cuba report named 70+ Americans — from spies to wedding guests — as one undifferentiated network, a scapegoat machine now churning out congressional subpoenas, a federal grand jury, and a widening dragnet.

Seventeen year old Linda Pagano vanished from Akron, Ohio, in 1974 after returning home from a rock concert and arguing with her stepfather, leaving behind a mystery that would haunt her family for more than four decades. With no confirmed sightings and few answers from the original investigation, Linda's disappearance seemed destined to remain buried in the past. Then a college student stumbled across a forgotten case, took her investigation to Reddit, and helped uncover a staggering connection that authorities had missed for decades. The discovery finally answered what happened to Linda, but more than 50 years after her murder, the question of who killed her remains unsolved.Our other podcast: "FEARFUL" - https://open.spotify.com/show/56ajNkLiPoIat1V2KI9n5c?si=OyM38rdsSSyyzKAFUJpSywMERCH:https://www.redbubble.com/people/wickedandgrim/shop?asc=uPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/wickedandgrim?fan_landing=trueYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@wickedlifeFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/wickedandgrim/ Instagram:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wickedandgrim/?hl=enTwitter: https://twitter.com/wickedandgrimWebsite: https://www.wickedandgrim.com/

Finding someone with your family's last name can be exciting. Maybe the name appears in an old census, a cemetery record, an online family tree, or even a DNA match list. The spelling is exactly right, the family lived in the same general area, and suddenly a new branch of your tree seems to be taking shape. It is easy to think, "We have the same surname, so we must be related." Sometimes that turns out to be true. A shared surname can be a valuable clue, especially when it is unusual and appears in the same place over several generations. But a surname alone does not prove a family connection. Different families often adopted the same last name independently. Related people may also appear under completely different surnames or spellings. To know whether two people truly belong to the same family, you must look beyond the name and follow the records...

Let us know what you think!Episode OverviewHittin' the Bricks with Kathleen is the genealogy podcast that features your questions and her answers, helping researchers build stronger family histories through better sources and smarter research methods. In this episode, host Kathleen Brandt shares a curated summer reading list for genealogists, featuring nonfiction books that demonstrate how historians use original records to reconstruct real lives.More than book recommendations, this episode explores how accomplished nonfiction authors approach research—and how genealogists can apply those same techniques to break through brick walls and create richer, evidence-based family stories.Episode Discussion & Key MomentsKathleen explores why some of the best genealogy lessons come not from genealogy books, but from well-researched works of narrative history. These authors routinely uncover forgotten stories by combining original documents, archival collections, maps, correspondence, government records, and local history into compelling narratives.The episode highlights several recommended books, including Obstinate Daughters by Denise Kiernan, The Indifferent Stars Above by Daniel James Brown, and The Warmth of Other Suns by Isabel Wilkerson, demonstrating how each author reconstructs lives through careful documentation and thoughtful analysis. The discussion also introduces the show's blog on reform school identification projects, illustrating how ancestors often appear in unexpected record collections: 11 Overlooked Records for Children Sent to Reform Schools.Obstinate Daughters by Denise KiernanThe Indifferent Stars Above by Daniel James BrownThe Warmth of Other Suns by Isabel WilkersonAdditional Resources Behind the Uniform (Missouri Humanities-supported project)  Reform school identification: 11 Overlooked Records for Children Sent to Reform Schools.Why This Episode MattersExcellent genealogy depends on more than finding names in databases, it requires understanding the historical world your ancestors lived in.

The Book Of Matthew And The Genealogy Of Yeshua  Part 7:  Jewish Testimony Of Another Miraculous Birth  -  English only.  The first chapter of the Book of Matthew references two miraculous births... Abraham's son Isaac and Yeshua HaMashiach. The Book of Luke adds a third miraculous birth associated with the birth of Yeshua...John the Baptist.  While traditional Judaism does not believe that Yeshua was born of a virgin, there is a rabbinic tradition that someone else in Matthew's genealogy was the result of a miraculous birth. Who was that person and why is this tradition significant to followers of Yeshua?  Recorded March 13, 2026.

In 1 Timothy 1:1–11, Paul instructs Timothy to confront false teaching and guard the gospel within the church at Ephesus. Pastor Caleb Cole explains why sound doctrine matters, how speculation and hidden knowledge can distract believers from Scripture, and why Christians must carefully evaluate what they hear against the Word of God. Real love protects what saves, and Jesus is the only one who can save.Guarding the gospel is not about winning arguments or correcting people from a place of pride. Correction must come from a pure heart, a good conscience, sincere faith, and genuine love. This message also explores the proper purpose of the law, the grace that saves us through faith in Jesus, and the responsibility every believer has to share the good news that transforms hearts, families, and lives.

In this installment of The Messianic Torah Observer, I pick up from Parashat Massei (this past Sabbath's reading) and invite you slow down and take another look at Numbers/Bemidbar 33. What first appears to be a simple travel log of our 42 wilderness encampments is, in fact, a powerful witness that Abba Yah records every stop in our covenant journey. From Rameses of Mitsrayim to the plains of Moab, Yah had Moshe write down the goings out of His people by His command. And if Yah recorded every encampment of our wilderness sojourning, then we should take comfort in knowing that He also records the stops, struggles, failures, waiting seasons, and forward movements of our Faith walk today. This teaching also draws out a stunning Messianic connection between the 42 wilderness stations of Numbers 33 and the 42 generations in Matthew 1, showing how Yehoshua HaMashiyach is not only the destination of our journey, but the One who walks with us through every encampment on our way to the Kingdom of the Heavens.

With the dog days of summer approaching, you may be thinking of genealogy projects to keep you occupied during the long, hot days ahead. The good news is that there are plenty of things you can do in July that fall outside your usual genealogical research, and these should keep you occupied and entertained while you wait for the weather to cool off and school to start again. Here they are if you are looking for some fun and creative genealogical projects for July.

Genealogy has always required patience, curiosity, and a willingness to follow clues one step at a time. For many years, that meant courthouse visits, family letters, cemetery books, microfilm readers, census pages, and long afternoons with handwritten notes spread across the table. Those older methods still have value. In fact, they are often where the best discoveries begin. But today's researcher has something earlier generations could only dream about: searchable records, digital newspapers, online family trees, deoxyribonucleic acid testing, artificial intelligence search tools, cloud storage, and scanning apps that can preserve family papers before they are lost. Technology has changed genealogy in a big way. It can help us search faster, organize more effectively, find records we might have missed, and share family history with relatives who live far away. But it can also create confusion. Every website seems to have a new feature. Every service has a new offer. Every hint looks exciting. Every subscription promises access to something important. That is where we have to slow down...

The history of Jews in the United States is often told as if they immigrated, gained citizenship, and almost immediately achieved full legal rights. Yet this story fundamentally misses how citizenship rights worked for Jews and countless others who arrived on American shores. In Who Is American? Belonging and the Question of Jewish Citizenship, Lila Corwin Berman draws on case law, statutes, and debates to argue that both the laws of American citizenship and Jews' position in them changed repeatedly across the twentieth century. Courts, policymakers, and the public persistently asked what it meant to be Jewish under the law. Were Jews a race, a nationality, a religion—or some combination of each? The answer carried profound legal consequences. Not only did it determine Jews' citizenship status, but it also affected the rights they could exercise. Just as significantly, the meaning of the categories under law changed over time, affecting Jews' self-understanding, their political ideals, and their relationships to other groups of Americans.Who Is American? tells a history that resonates powerfully with today's high-stakes battles over citizenship and rights. As Berman concludes, citizenship law has always been better at posing questions about the terms of belonging than at providing any ultimate resolution. The tangled story of Jewish citizenship demonstrates the limits of law and explains why the United States continues to fall into new and, often, unsettling debates about who is American. Lila Corwin Berman is the Paul and Sylvia Steinberg Professor of American Jewish History at New York University, where she directs the Goldstein-Goren Center for American Jewish History. She is author of The American Jewish Philanthropic Complex: The History of a Multibillion-Dollar Institution (Princeton) and Metropolitan Jews: Politics, Race, and Religion in Postwar Detroit.

Most readers hurry past the opening genealogy of Matthew, but in this message, we slow down and see what's hidden in plain sight. Inside this long list of names are unlikely people—sinners, outsiders, and lives marked by scandal, faith, and grace. As the family line of Jesus unfolds, we discover that the gospel itself is already written there: God begins with sinners, honors faith, and redeems through love. Even a genealogy becomes a powerful testimony to the fact that God loves us and sent His Son to save us.

In the world of genealogy, it can sometimes feel as though the women in your family tree slip into the shadows, overshadowed by male ancestors whose surnames are passed down through generations. But don't be fooled—women were central to family history, community life, and the transmission of culture. Tracing maternal lineages in South Africa can reveal many untold stories and hidden connections, even though the path may not always be straightforward. Let's explore the challenges of uncovering women in genealogical records while highlighting the methods and resources that can help you bring these forgotten ancestors to light...

Most people learn American history through famous battles, the founding fathers, and well-known landmarks, but some of the most powerful stories come from small, forgotten places that never make it into textbooks. In this episode, Fort Plank historian Ken D. Johnson reveals the hidden Revolutionary War history of Fort Plank and New York's Mohawk Valley, and how one obscure frontier fort shaped the lives of families, soldiers, and communities for generations. Ken shares how a simple genealogical curiosity about his own ancestors turned into a decades-long mission: preserving the stories of the ordinary men, women, and children who defended and rebuilt the Mohawk Valley. What began as researching family roots led him deep into merchant ledgers, military orders, land claims, church records, and personal journals, evidence that allowed him to reconstruct the true story of Fort Plank and its people with remarkable precision. Rather than rewriting history with modern opinions, Ken focuses on documented facts and first-person accounts, which he compiles in works like “In Defense of the Facts: An Ongoing Search for Fort Plank” and “The Bloodied Mohawk.” You'll hear why Fort Plank was far more than just a military outpost. Built on the remnants of a French and Indian War site, it became a critical commissary fort, supplying food, candles, and essentials to Revolutionary troops based on complex ration systems. After the war, when local families returned to burned-out farms and ruined homes, they didn't leave the fort to rot, they repurposed its materials to rebuild barns, houses, and livelihoods, turning a symbol of war into the foundation of a renewed community. Ken also explains how financial records and account books can unlock family and local history in ways birth and death records never could. By tracking payments, debts, and land transfers, he has uncovered relationships and corrected long-standing genealogical assumptions, like tracing a supposed “Bowman” connection back to the more accurate “Bauer” family through a single, telling transaction. His work shows how genealogy and local history are inseparable, and how understanding one brings the other into focus. https://youtu.be/WXxHZQGAEM4?si=XWLGjiuo8Qn6I_53 If you're interested in genealogy, Revolutionary War history, the Mohawk Valley, or simply understanding where you come from, this episode will change how you think about the past. Ken shares practical starting points for tracing your own roots, why talking to grandparents and elders matters, and how knowing your family's story can give you deeper identity, pride, and perspective. To explore further, visit FortPlank.org, where you'll find research links, contact information, and details on Ken's books and ongoing discoveries about Fort Plank and the Mohawk Valley. Quotes: “In my mind it's not really genealogy, and in my mind it's not really history; it's just this is the way it was, and this is how it happened.”  “You will never, not ever, ever understand your family until you understand the history;  and you'll never understand the history until you understand the families.”  “No one else studies this place, no one else wants to maintain it, nobody else wants to preserve the memories, and so it's kind of a self‑imposed duty.”  Contact Details: Explore Ken D.

Diana and Nicole share their recent visit to the Allen County Public Library Genealogy Center in Fort Wayne, Indiana, where they explore the facility's premier resources. Listeners learn how to use the Periodical Source Index (PERSI) to locate articles by keyword, surname, or locality. The pair explains the value of city directories for tracking individuals after 1950 to uncover addresses and occupations. They also offer guidance on utilizing published family histories, specifically on evaluating an author's methods and identifying primary source clues within these volumes. The discussion shifts to the library's expansive collection of locality-based books, including county histories and cemetery abstracts, and their methodology section containing various research guides. Listeners gain insight into the benefits of accessing subscription-based databases and locked FamilySearch collections while onsite. Finally, Diana and Nicole address the library's transition to digital microfilm viewing, noting that physical film remains accessible for those who prefer it.

Drop us some Fan Mail. Thanks!Question: Our daughter is 11 months old and was adopted through an open adoption. We have a relationship with her birth mother, but don't yet feel it's the right moment to ask about family history, and her birth father is completely unknown to us. We do know that both birth parents are Hispanic, but beyond that, we have no additional information about her heritage or background. We want her to grow up with as rich a sense of her identity and heritage as possible. What guidance do adoption professionals offer around using genetic testing like 23andMe or AncestryDNA for adoptees? Is there an age-appropriate time to do this, or is it better to wait and let her decide for herself when she's older? Are there any other considerations unique to the adoptee experience we should keep in mind?Resources:Genetic Testing for Adoptees: Key Considerations and BenefitsGenetic Testing for Adoptees - Is It Worth It?Genetic Testing and Genealogy for AdopteesListen here to learn more about our Executive Director, Linda FioreSupport the showPlease leave us a rating or review.  This podcast is produced by www.CreatingaFamily.org.
