Every June, many of us pause to honor the fathers in our lives—the ones who taught us how to change a tire, tied our fishing lines, and maybe even showed us how to be brave in the quietest of ways. But for all the neckties and backyard barbecues, few people know the full story of how Father's Day came to be. The holiday didn't spring up as easily as Mother's Day, nor was it without its share of controversy, setbacks, and surprising twists. The roots of Father's Day reach deep into early 20th-century America—and they begin not with a celebration, but with a tragedy...

By the time New York took its 1915 state census, the state was in the midst of dramatic social, political, and demographic shifts. The five years since the 1910 federal census had brought even more industrial growth, continued waves of immigration, and the rise of new housing, labor, and reform movements. Capturing all of this change in the middle of a federal census decade, the 1915 New York State census stands as one of the most insightful tools available for those researching family history in early 20th-century New York. This census was conducted on June 1, 1915, by the state's Department of Efficiency and Economy—a short-lived agency created to oversee and modernize state operations. The count included over 10.5 million residents and gave a mid-decade view of one of America's most dynamic regions. It's more than just names and numbers—it's a snapshot of what life looked like in a time of incredible transformation...

The 1905 New York State census is a cornerstone resource for anyone researching individuals or families who lived in New York at the beginning of the 20th century. Coming just five years after the 1900 federal census and five years before the 1910 federal count, this state census captures a critical snapshot of life during a dynamic and rapidly changing time in American history...

Forensic Genetic Genealogy (FGG) stands at the frontier of criminal justice, offering new hope for cases that have remained unsolved for decades. This groundbreaking conversation takes us inside the Center for Human Identification (CHI) at the University of North Texas Health Science Center at Fort Worth - the first public lab in the nation providing comprehensive FGG services to law enforcement.In this episode, Robert Moore, Director of the Investigative Support Unit, explains how this technology is revolutionizing criminal investigations by comparing crime scene DNA to profiles in public genealogy databases. The process has breathed new life into cold cases across Texas, particularly benefiting smaller agencies with limited resources. With 254 counties in Texas and many police departments averaging just 18 officers, CHI's free DNA testing services provide a lifeline for investigations that might otherwise remain unsolved.The most powerful moments in this conversation come from genealogist Susan Davis, who shares her personal journey as both a sexual assault survivor and genetics expert. Her vulnerability in discussing her own 1981 attack by a serial predator underscores the human impact of this technology. "Had FGG been available then," she reflects, "it would have saved lives and prevented other women from suffering similar attacks." Her story illustrates how science can transform trauma into purpose—Davis now spends her days identifying perpetrators in hours rather than the years it often took traditional methods.Through compelling case studies, including that of a serial rapist identified in just five hours after decades evading justice, we witness the transformative potential of genetic genealogy when placed in capable hands. The conversation reflects both scientific precision and profound human compassion for victims who have waited far too long for answers.

The 1892 New York census is an essential source for family history researchers working in the late 19th century. With the destruction of the 1890 U.S. federal census, the 1892 state count offers one of the only large-scale snapshots of life during that decade. For anyone tracing New York families through immigration, urbanization, or internal migration in the 1880s and 1890s, this record is a key substitute for the lost enumeration.

Genealogies are not often thought of as holding a great deal of intrigue for readers. Names and lists of people do not advance characters or provide any sort of action. Yet, for those who read closely, there is much to learn from them. Today, we get to hear of the genealogy from Adam to Noah, and how God is faithful to his word through them.

Redemption didn't start in Matthew—it began in Genesis.In this episode of Under God, Pastor Stephen Martin cracks open one of Scripture's best-kept secrets: the ten names in Genesis 5 form a complete Gospel sentence centuries before Jesus was born. If you've ever skimmed a genealogy, this deep dive will change how you read the Bible forever.

This postcard brought it all back. The steel-gray tones, the Point Bridge stretching across the Monongahela, and Pittsburgh's unmistakable skyline—narrow, bold, and rising up from the meeting of three rivers. I remember the first time I ever drove through the Fort Pitt Tunnel. You're surrounded by mountain, nothing but concrete—then suddenly, you burst out into the open and the whole city hits you at once. There's nothing quite like that view. And somehow, this postcard captures that feeling...

Among the many state censuses conducted across the United States, Iowa's 1925 enumeration stands apart. Genealogists frequently cite it as one of the most detailed and valuable non-federal census records available. What sets it apart is not just the volume of information collected but the nature of that information—specifically, its emphasis on lineage. This census doesn't simply capture who was living in Iowa at the time; it provides rare and remarkably direct insight into each resident's parentage and origins...

While most genealogists rely on the federal census as a foundational tool, those researching ancestors in New York State have a distinct advantage. In addition to appearing in the federal census every ten years, New Yorkers were also counted in a robust series of state censuses. These records, taken at regular intervals between federal censuses, offer an extraordinary opportunity to fill in gaps, confirm relationships, and capture details that the federal government often overlooked. New York conducted state censuses in the following years: 1825, 1835, 1845, 1855, 1865, 1875, 1892, 1905, 1915, and 1925. These were authorized under various state constitutional provisions, including a requirement for mid-decade population counts to support legislative apportionment and school funding decisions. While earlier censuses are more limited in scope and survival, those from 1855 onward are generally accessible and remarkably detailed...

Luke Looks Back Chapter 4 Luke 3:19-4:13 The Preparation of the Messiah: his baptism Luke rather oddly records the imprisonment of John (3: 19, 20) before the baptism of Jesus by John. He does this because only Jesus is really important in the rest of the story. He continues his account of the preparation of Jesus for his ministry with first his baptism and then his temptation. 1) Ice breaker. What was the most memorable part of your baptism (if you were old enough to remember it) or confirmation? 2) Matthew tells us why Jesus was baptised (Matt 3: 15). Luke is only concerned with what happened when he was (v 21 - 23). Which major Christian teachings are important in what happened? Why is it important for us to hear about these before we hear about Jesus starting his ministry? Genealogies were important in those days to show who someone was. Why this one is considerably different from the one that Matthew gives is not clear. Both are carefully structured around (different) multiples of seven. Probably Luke is most interested in his last line: Jesus was the son of God. The main purpose of the three temptations is to teach us things about Jesus. Things like the order of the temptations, different in different Gospels, are not important. We will explore five emphases of the temptations in the following questions: 3) The temptations make clear the nature of Jesus' work as the Son of God. In which verses in this story is Jesus called the Son of God? What sort of Messiah will the people have been expecting from texts like: Gen 49: 10; Num 24: 17 - 19; 1 Sam 21: 11 (an example of how a Davidic king was supposed to be); Ps 2: 6 - 12; Is 11: 1,4,10 - 14; Dan 7: 13, 14, 27; Zec 9: 9 - 17? How do the temptations show that what they were getting was very different from what they expected? Which were fulfilled then and which are still to be fulfilled? 4) Share something of how your own understanding of Jesus has changed during your Christian life as you have learned more about him. 5) The temptations of Jesus are very like some of the great events of Israel's history. Read Ex 16: 2 -4; 17: 1 - 7; 32: 1 - 4; and 1 Cor 10: 1 - 7. Which story in Exodus is like each one of the 3 temptations? What is the fundamental difference between each pair of experiences? 6) The temptations demonstrate the antagonism of Satan to the Kingdom of God. In some churches Satan is never mentioned; some talk too much about him, blaming him for every thing that goes wrong even when it is a very human fault. How would you rate our emphasis on Satan: too much, too little or just right? How does it compare with the emphasis in Luke's story? 7) The temptations emphasise that Jesus' ministry is the fulfilment of scripture. Identify how they do this. This emphasis is particularly important in the end of Luke's Gospel at Lk 24: 32. What do you find the hardest part of reading and learning from scripture? What tips can you give other people to ease the problem? 8) The temptations show Jesus' followers a way to resist temptations. The basic ideas behind the three temptations are 1) using your faith for personal gain; 2) using it to make yourself look good before other people; 3) putting God to the test in practical ways. Look at each temptation and decide whether those are the right descriptions of them. If not, what is? In what ways, often trying to hide their real motives, do people sometimes try to put God to the test? Which of these temptations do you experience most? 9) The devil left Jesus 'until an opportune time' (v 13). When, or under what circumstance, does he get a good opportunity to go after us? What can we do to discourage him? Click or tap here to download as an audio mp3

If you've spent any time researching your family history, you've probably developed a familiar rhythm. You track your ancestors through the federal censuses, taken every ten years like clockwork. It's a comforting structure: 1850, 1860, 1870… they show up like old friends, giving you names, ages, occupations, and places of birth. For many researchers, these are the backbone of American genealogy. But then something strange happens...

I pulled this one from the stack and couldn't look away. Moss hangs low in the scene, soft and heavy like it's weighed down by memory. A quiet glade in City Park, dappled in sunlight—until you notice the duel. Two men, swords drawn, captured mid-motion. The postcard tells us it's the De Lissau–Le Bouisque duel of 1841. But that's only the beginning. What you're seeing is more than just a stylized illustration. This postcard opens a window into one of New Orleans' more haunting traditions: dueling. For over a century, a particular corner of City Park—shaded by massive oak trees—was the chosen ground for resolving matters of honor. They called them the Dueling Oaks...

William Rufus DeVane King was born on April 7, 1786, in Sampson County, North Carolina. His ancestry reached back to some of the earliest European settlers in the Southern colonies. His father, William King, was of Irish descent, with ancestors believed to have emigrated from Ulster to the American colonies in the early 1700s. The King family settled in North Carolina, became landowners, and took part in the political and agricultural life of the region. His grandfather, also named William King, is believed to have fought in the colonial militia during the French and Indian War. William's mother, Margaret DeVane, belonged to a family of French Huguenot and English lineage. The DeVanes had settled in the Carolinas in the early 18th century, escaping religious persecution and bringing with them traditions of independence and agricultural skill. Margaret's father, John DeVane, was a planter and a patriot during the American Revolution. The King and DeVane families were both known for civic involvement, and together, they provided a strong foundation of wealth, status, and public service that would influence William's future path.

Exodus 5-10 recounts the escalating conflict between Moses and Pharaoh as God moves with his purpose to free the Israelites from slavery in Egypt. Moses and Aaron approach Pharaoh, demanding that he let the Israelites go to worship their God. Pharaoh refuses and worsens their oppression by forcing them to make bricks without supplying straw. The Israelites blame Moses, who turns to God in distress. God reassures Moses, reaffirming His promise to deliver Israel with mighty acts. Genealogies of key Israelite leaders are also provided. Moses and Aaron confront Pharaoh again, demonstrating a sign by turning Aaron's staff into a serpent. Pharaoh remains obstinate, and the first plague—turning the Nile River into blood—devastates Egypt. A series of plagues follow: frogs, gnats, flies, livestock disease, boils, and hail. After each plague, Pharaoh either hardens his heart or offers to release the Israelites under restrictive conditions, but ultimately refuses. The plagues intensify with locusts, followed by darkness covering Egypt for three days. Pharaoh's resistance continues, though his advisors plead with him to relent. These chapters reveal Pharaoh's stubbornness, God's growing display of power, and the mounting tensions leading toward the final, devastating plague.

George Mifflin Dallas, who served as the 11th Vice President of the United States from 1845 to 1849 under President James K. Polk, is one of the quieter figures in American history. Though the city of Dallas, Texas, may or may not be named after him, his influence was far greater in his own time than the legacy we associate with his name today. He was a man of learning, diplomacy, and political acumen, with roots that reached deep into the early fabric of American life.

I pulled this card from the stack and instantly felt the spray of seawater and the tension of a harpoon rope straining against the power of something far too large to control. This is no tourist snapshot. It's a painting—an artist's concept of a whaling scene, likely imagined from stories passed down, museum displays, or old journal entries. The men are mid-chase in a longboat, bearing down on the massive, thrashing tail of a whale. Behind them, the tall masts of their ship rise from the sea like a cathedral of sails. There's no engine noise, no modern equipment. Just raw wood, rope, and determination.

The 1960 U.S. Census sits just over the horizon, scheduled to be released to the public on April 1, 2032. It's a highly anticipated snapshot of American life during a time of rapid change: the rise of suburbia, the baby boom cresting, the Cold War in full effect, and the Civil Rights Movement gaining national attention. For genealogists, it promises to unlock new details about ancestors who lived in the modern era—but for now, it remains sealed under the federal 72-year privacy law. So, what can we expect when it does become available—and how can we prepare to use it?

The 1950 U.S. Census is the most recent one released to the public, and it marks the end of an era and the beginning of another. Taken just five years after the end of World War II, it captures a nation in transition—from wartime sacrifice to peacetime prosperity. Suburbs were growing, baby carriages were rolling down sidewalks, and television sets were beginning to flicker in living rooms. If the 1940 census shows a country on the brink, the 1950 census shows what happened after the leap. This census is a cornerstone for modern genealogy. It connects living generations with those who came before in a way that no earlier census can. It may even include your parents, grandparents, or someone you knew personally. That makes it more than just a record—it's a snapshot of real lives in neighborhoods that may still feel familiar.

The 1940 U.S. Census gives us a remarkably detailed portrait of America just before everything changed. In a few short years, the United States would enter World War II, and millions of lives would be transformed. But in 1940, Americans were still in recovery mode. The Great Depression had taken its toll, but new programs like the New Deal had started to shift the tide. This census captures that fragile balance: a nation still scarred but beginning to look ahead. This is the most recent census available to the public and, for many genealogists, it's one of the most informative. It offers a unique combination of traditional questions and new ones that reflect the challenges of the 1930s. As a bridge between the interwar period and the coming conflict, the 1940 census helps us understand where our ancestors stood before everything changed again.

I pulled this one from the box the other day—a postcard that's more than just a snapshot. It's a whole afternoon, frozen in place. I've looked at it a dozen times now, and I keep finding new things. The light on the red brick, the ivy climbing the walls, the quiet blur of someone mid-stride. It's not a staged photo. It feels lived in, like if I stood still long enough, I might hear the hum of a saxophone or catch the smell of espresso drifting out from a corner café. This is Greenwich Village, New York City. The card's from the 1960s, and it captures something that's hard to explain unless you've felt it yourself—this neighborhood's rhythm. The front shows a row of artists set up along the sidewalk, their work leaned up against the building as if it naturally belongs there. People wander past with curiosity, maybe looking for something to hang in a tiny walk-up apartment or just pausing to admire. And there's a red station wagon parked at the curb. Maybe the artist who drove it there hauled every one of those paintings in its back seat. Maybe someone was moving in—or out. That's how the Village was. A place of transitions. A place for the almost-famous, the nearly-there, the deeply passionate.

The 1930 U.S. Census captures America in an unsettled moment. The Roaring Twenties were winding down, but the Great Depression was just beginning to take hold. It's a census taken in the calm before the storm fully broke. A generation that had just emerged from the trauma of World War I and the 1918 flu pandemic found itself navigating economic boom—and, soon after, one of the most devastating financial collapses in history. This makes the 1930 census especially valuable to genealogists and family historians. It not only shows us where people were and what they were doing, but it offers a final snapshot of prosperity for some, and for others, early signs of hardship. When read alongside the 1920 census, it helps us ask important questions: Did families move in search of work? Were more people renting than owning? Did younger generations start their adult lives in very different ways from their parents? It's also a census that teeters between old and new. Traditional jobs and family structures still dominated, but you can see modern America coming into view, especially in cities. With the next census in 1940 capturing a nation preparing for war, the 1930 census stands as a middle chapter in a story of massive change.

Hey Heal Squad! In Part 2 of our incredible conversation with Judy Wilkins-Smith, we go even deeper into how your subconscious mind, inherited beliefs, and emotional DNA may be running your life—until you choose to rewrite them. Judy introduces us to the real power of Genealogy 3.0, and how your family's past (and even major world events!) still impact the way you think, feel, and respond today. She shares tools to help you identify the emotional blocks that aren't even yours, and how to replace them with clear, emotionally charged visions of what you actually want. From rewiring generational scarcity, to navigating parenting patterns, to building new beliefs through visualization, this will help you stop living someone else's story, and finally create your own. Whether you're feeling stuck, weighed down by inherited fear, or simply ready to level up, you're gonna wanna hear this one. HEALERS & HEAL LINERS:  Genealogy 3.0 goes deeper than DNA tests. Knowing where you come from is powerful, but understanding how world events shaped your family's beliefs, behaviors, and emotional patterns is what transforms your life today. Patterns that want to stop get loud. When you feel resistance, tension, or overwhelm—it's often a sign an old pattern is trying to break. Listening to it can reveal the new, aligned version of you that's waiting to emerge. You inherit wisdom, not just wounds. Don't just look at what's gone wrong, consciously choose the traits you want to carry forward. Kindness, resilience, and joy are just as real in your lineage as trauma and fear. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy's Page: Shop My Macy's Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Delete Me: https://bit.ly/43rkHwi   code: SQUAD EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off JUDY WILKINS-SMITH RESOURCES: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/judywilkinssmith/  Website: https://judywilkins-smith.com/  Book: https://www.amazon.com/Hidden-Power-Your-DNA-Genealogy/dp/B0D3414MVL  Check out her upcoming event: https://judywilkins-smith.com/events/breakthrough-dna/  ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos' passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.
