 The intro for last night's Friday date night because I don't have the real intro. So hey everybody and welcome to the Saturday morning live cast where we talk about what's happened in the past week. This morning our leader Sarah is on the road again, somebody chew up some good music on the road again. I got a fox in my head, thanks Max. And Mindy is doing something about the unknown, something's going on the unknown, picking his hair. Pip, are you wearing, Pip is our special guest star this morning along with Chris. Pip, are you wearing one of those wraparound skirt thingies? I've been so busy on WikiTree this morning that answering emails and then I've got checking the greeter stuff out and things like that but I didn't have time to put one on. But the one I was going to put on was my new Douglas tartan, which I haven't got it on yet. But I do have my Scotland t-shirt on. Chris is also here with us. Good morning Chris, how are you? I'm doing great, it is currently eight degrees here and we're steering down the barrel of Hurricane Padre. So yeah. That's right. It's supposed to hit Eastern Canada tonight, yeah. We want to say good morning to all of our peeps in the chat as well, John Tyner, Kathy Navin, Janine, Kathy Navva. Let's see, you've got to scroll down a bit here, Lynette, let's see, Thomas Konelein, Jory Jordan, Tommy Bach from the Bayou State, hey Hilary from Wales, David Smith, hopefully David will see your submission for photo of the week. Let's Betsy Koh, hey Betsy, Greg Clark, yo, Greg, I've been using your DNA citations app that I'm going to show in a presentation in September, how about that, yeah. Let's keep on going. Benjamin Malzworth, good morning to you Benjamin, early morning for you, keeping on running down to catch everybody. I think I probably missed somebody. All the way to the meeting, Tiger Burning 753, who is that? Who are you? Who are you, Tiger Burning? Anyway, so here we are. It is Saturday morning, so we're doing the wrap up of the week. And I'll say what Sarah usually says is good morning, good evening, good afternoon, wherever you are in the world, welcome to this morning's Wikitwee livecast. It's been a pretty Truman show in trial. To the Truman show, and it's all about Chris Ferriero. No, it's not. Hey, Dan. But, hey, it looks like Greg is making some pasta sauce, that's good, that's good. Pasta sauce, okay, so any traits or characteristics, that's our question of the week. I'm going to go back to sharing my screen here, the question of the week. Any traits or characteristics, Chris, you brightened up, do you have any traits or characteristics that you share? Yeah, I got big Italian notes. The Italian knows. You know, I've been doing research for this presentation that I'm doing in September. I came across two individuals in my family. One of them is in my direct line, but not kind of collateral to me, who are deaf and dumb in the census records. And so I wonder if that is something that's handed down in our family or, and this is something I want to look into, was there something going on at the time and they both, like their mother had the measles, which made them become deaf. I have a friend whose mother had measles when she was in the womb, and she was born deaf because of the measles. So I've got to look into that, but that was interesting. So any traits or characteristics you've inherited, I'm going to start with the Facebook, Margaret Hunt. But you have to take into account the false diagnosis that happened because they didn't know what we know now. Well, I'm assuming that if the census taker went to the door and the guy was deaf and dumb, he had to get somebody else to talk to the census taker. And also there's other historical data that shows that these two people were deaf and dumb, which is they can't speak, which my friend Allison speaks quite well with her hands. So Margaret Hunt on her paternal side, thick, wild, curly hair, dislike of coffee. Interesting. And she says a lot of people in her family have that. Lily Laplace Dovey says that she's inherited the anxiety of every single one of my ancestors. That's interesting. And that goes back to some DNA studies that have shown up in families that we remember past traumas from our ancestors, which is fine. Clinical depression, male pattern baldness, Ron Wyatt. As I talked to two men who have lots of hair, Chris and Pip, I'm looking at you face on. I'm assuming that you have a full head of hair. I sure do. But you don't have to be honest with me, don't you? This is underwood hair. There you go. Yeah. Thank goodness. Both of my brothers got shepherd hair, which means they don't have any. Some of my ancestors were mariners and sea captains, and I don't get seasick. That's fun. That's fun. My paternal grandfather's crooked middle fingers and my maternal grandmother's face shape and the dimple in the chin. See the dimple in the chin I heard comes from the father's side. So if that's your grand, no, she says maternal. I know not the Christina, but that crooked middle finger. I mean, don't go there, don't go there. Photic sneeze, relax, whatever that is. I love that it's acronym is etchew. It's a multi-sneezer. So if you sneeze once, you sneeze. That's from Schimberley Dutton. Carolyn Hendry says that the determination in some stubbornness is evident through the Oliver's side of our family, dimple in my chin, oh, and essential tremors. I have a friend who has those. Margaret Allison says the dicks and ears, although not as bad as some. That's funny. Big ears, gumbo ears. Explosive plantagenae temper. That's Ellie Merlion. That's interesting. That's a gray one. Blue eyes, probably a propensity for committing acts of piracy off the coast of Italy. I don't know. Mike Frank sometimes. She probably got some of your ancestors, Chris. Yeah, there you go. Rule number one about the internet, don't admit your crimes. You'll end up on a show called What the F is Wrong with You. We can't say that live. And let's see, question of the week. And this should have blown up like the rest of it. There we go. So everybody can see it. We have some good answers. Green eyes, both of my children have the same eye color. And that's from Alexis. Now, Alexis always gives us great pictures. So look. Yes, she does. Green eyes, gray hair and green eyes. Alexis, is your hair gray? That's pretty cool. I like that. She does do great pictures. I never thought much about this until I saw Edison Williams' claim that he shares 41% of his DNA with bananas. I believe you have. By some amazing coincidence, so do I. There you go. My quick size. Nine point meaning like crazy. No. He is. But I'm fine. So my foot size. I am size 9.5 triple E in men's shoes from G. Brero. If you're a woman and you're saying that, no, I'm just kidding. That's funny. Oh, 11 triple E in women's. Pretty big feet. That's crazy. Dieter Lawrence, all my members, all members of my family, siblings, grandfathers have blue eyes and only my mother has brown eyes. I got my blue eyes and my hair from my grandfather, Golden, Golden, supposedly. I have a book, Thomas Karnaline Thomas always writes a book, Thomas always writes a book when he writes an answer. He does it in the chat, too. I didn't have time to go through and vet all the answers today. So I can't skim this fast enough, but I see the word incredible, so he's got incredible genes. Chris, if you see this, my paternal grandmother also had very, very strong love of Star Trek. I got called out in this comment. PNG in particular for the duration of her life after I was born, I have no clue when it began. There was a cardboard cutout of Jean-Luc Picard standing right by the door of the bedroom looking out into the hallway. There was also a collection of dishes and cutlery that were Star Trek theme that were never used always on display. How about that? You got called out, Chris Ferriolo. That's cool. Let's see, Mary and Pool. From my paternal family comes red hair, and for lucky for me, I got strawberry blonde. That's good. Red hair. Uh-oh. Cool picture coming up. You'd call it a similar face feature, traits or characteristics, but I inherited my grandmother's nose. Oh, isn't that interesting, and I like the picture to go along with it. That's Janine Isleman. Janine, are you the one, you're the one on the far left, or are you covering up your brother's ears? Okay, so on down, Stephen Sanders, my mother has dark brown borderline black hair as do my father's. My brother's, my dad have very light blonde hair, so hair color, the oan ear, here we go back to the ears. Okay, this is going to be a good one. Great photograph, smile, my great, my great grandmother's smile. How fun. Ben Mollsworth, that's such a great picture and such a great thought. It is. Yeah. Keen Edward I of England's Timber, there we go, another Plantagenet commentary. What? Oh, uh, how do you, where's the crown? Let's see, general body type from my mother. My brother and sister and I all inherited my grandmother, grandfather Hunt's stature. Just take that where you will. I was born with depression, inherited depression, diagnosed at birth and plague all my life. Wow. Take care of that. Take care of that wherever you are. Yeah, take care, take care, um, where I got my green eyes, it's a trait unique to vikings. That's interesting. I didn't know that. Ophthalmologist says, I thought that a lot of Irish, well, I was going to say I thought a lot of Irish people had red hair and green eyes, but you know, that's the whole viking thing. I should know that. Ruth Lawrence, uh, pylor cysts on my scalp. I think maybe this is a personal question that we've asked Aowyn, Aowyn, you asked a very personal question. People are getting pretty deep here. You sure did. Yeah. Maternal grandfather's long, square-ish fingers. Interesting that's from Christine Giles, altruism, kindness from my maternal grandfather. You know what? I did something really cranky the other week. I didn't let somebody who went way around people to get to the very front of the line when there was construction, and I was just cranky, and I just was like, I'm not letting you in. You just tried to break in line in front of a thousand other people behind me. And I told my family I did that, and they said, no, that's bad. That is pretty bad. Yeah. I never do that, ever, ever. I'm like the nicest person when I'm driving. Especially when you live in Canada, which is surrounded by like 90% nice people. Yeah. And I did apologize after I did it, I waved to them and said, sorry. Yeah. Just rubbing it in. No. See, Daniel buried Jerk's a great deal when we were both in our 20s. I look like my great-grandfather, Jeff Lonsford. Red hair, Gail Wagner, uh-oh, lazy eye, LG Price, lots of great answers here. What time are we getting on to? We're doing okay. Let's see. Oh, we're good. While sitting in art history lecture classes, the press room was passing out exams and asked me to give one to my brother, who I asked. The guy sitting next to me had on the same style glasses, so the professor thought, I guess Connie has the thing of looking like other people. That's crazy, Connie Volkman. Same glasses, same color of eyes, same color and curly hair. Everything was the same. Yeah. That's crazy. Yeah. Another bad thing. This must be my day to confess. Another bad thing that we used to do as kids is my brother and I would pass as twins and I would get in on his ID to bars. Oh. Another bad thing. This is my confession day, I think. Let's see. Notice just yesterday that I had several of my cousins, had my great-grandmother's gray hair and black eyebrows. My eyebrows haven't gone gray, so they're still kind of blondish, dirty brownish. Laura Carter, oh, wow, strikingly, that's Melanie Paul and Laura Carter. David Smith says, well, for one, I was able to inherit gray eyes from my buck ancestors. Cool. Diabetes, yes. Diabetes runs in my family as well. Thankfully, the DNA hasn't turned it on yet in my protein, so Joe Morgan, take care. Oh, a crazy horse. I've been called a horse crazy all my life since I first saw my late aunt. Oh, on a horse? Donna Hubbler has a horse-loved gene. That's cool. Let's see. Tall. A tall trait for Francis Layman. I got the short squat shape for my grandfather. I already told you that, didn't I? Inherited web toes. Rosemary McKean. This is a really personal stuff. People are bringing up. Yeah. Hair. It's a recessive gene from Sandy Stafford. Stubbornness and temper from Sue Berryhill. My family norm is to have blue-eyes blonde hair. It turns brown as we get older. We're normally short and stature. Interesting. So he's listening lots, and one of them is heart attacks. Go get your heart check, Vanny Vaughn. Hereditary spastic paraplegia. Hereditary spastic paraplegia is a redness. It's got a redness. It's got a recessive neurological condition. And then gray blue eyes. I've heard of that. That condition. Hereditary spastic paraplegia. I had a distant cousin of mine who I found on WikiTree doing some research. She died young. She was sys to an institution because of that thing. forth to see her and she died. I think after a visit home, she died on the way back. So she wasn't in the county where the hospital was where she was staying. I remember seeing that very thing. Wow. I'm glad that you know you have it and I hope that you're getting the care that you need. I hope so too. Short hair won't grow any longer than my shoulders, darling Russell. Are you kidding me? Is that real? That your hair won't grow any longer than your shoulders? I don't know if that's a thing. I'm gonna look it up on WebMD right now. Yeah, I need to check that out. Short hair won't grow. Let's see what I can find. Hello Chris. Answer your phone. Somewhat different response than a physical characteristic. I'm in the branch of the family with all the doctors and pastors. There's another branch where their engineers are clustered. There's engineers in our family and architects and nuclear physicists. Pastors. Robert Lamperter got the pastor gene. Let's see. I got one of my genes from my mom's side and one from my dad's. Yeah. Hereditary hemochromatosis. Iron overload. Oh wow. Migraines poliosis. No worries. It's not harmful. A patch of white hair that I noticed when I was about 11 or 12. That's interesting. I had a friend in high school that had that. I did too, yeah. Let's see. This one skipped me, but my daughter has it. I think it's wonderful. My mother can make her nose twitch like Elizabeth Monk. Oh wow. If I do that, I have to move my whole face. It doesn't work. That's from Elizabeth Godin. Arthritis. High team. Myself, my father and his father also suffer from dupatron's contracture where our pinky and ring fingers became twisted and curled into the palm. Oh wow. An absolute life limiting issue for me. Oh my gosh. I'm so sorry, Phil. Oh no. Oh, you can't play the guitar anymore. Boy, this is sad. Me, my mom and grandma all have my great-grandmothers' eyes, shape, and color. Evelyn, stop. That's a good one. Okay, here's a pit. I gotta love you, man. You're gonna get to the bullet points. I love that. No long story with this one. I color and usually I go through and read all of them but I didn't have time today. Eye color, mom's side, height from my dad's side, arm length and shape dad's side. Fair color and not going bald mom's side. We already mentioned that. Accent both sides. Piedmont Southern, procrastination dad, laissez-faire attitude dad. That's a good one, Phil. It's not Piedmont Italian. I can tell you that much. Let's see. Eye color, small hands with tapered fingers. My spouse's family have the most beautifully long, elegant fingers. That's so good. Let's see. Yeah, under the two front teeth. That's from Connie. I've seen a few people with that. Somebody mentioned that in the chat, too. Yeah. That Ornace Borgman look with that big depth. Yeah. Let's see. Love building and making things from Mark Weinheimer or Leenheimer or Leenheimer. Don't know how to pronounce that. Weinheimer. Weinheimer. Boats and fishing. My dad's mom's dad was a design engineer and my dad's dad was a horticultural. I spent my life designing, making, and growing things. How fun, Mark. Let's see. Christopher Lawton, in my humble opinion, that is the most important question ever asked on WikiTree. Thanks, Aowyn. It is the combination of our genes, DNA, and the environment that we grew up in from the moment of conception, our mother's room to about seven years of age, which control how we see ourselves physically and mentally and how we behave, which we can all recognize for ourselves for the rest of our lives. It should be taught as part of every education system, but unfortunately, there are a few teachers who have been educated enough to pass it on. The ancient Greek philosopher died about 399 BC, besides the important of, no, they say, self. That's from Christopher Lawton. Interesting philosophical answer. Yeah. Well, I can think of a few things. Six foot three, both grandparents, Paul Croots is on your list of doing bullet points. Oh, yeah, he is. Yeah. Being tall, his build for most of his men and his family, eye color. My dad had blue eyes, hair. My mother and I have the same mix of curly, wavy, long, dark brown hair, deep voice, and loud like my maternal grandfather. Yeah, that's Paul. Music. My dad played ukulele and guitar. I play guitar. My great uncle and my uncle played Hawaiian music in California. Also my great uncle played ukulele. How about that? That's from Paul Croots. Paul writes music too. But, you know, there are a lot of people in the genealogy world who are musicians. Yeah. Abby Glenn is a musician as well. I'm a musician. Johnny Pearl was a musician in New York City years ago. He posted a picture of himself recently on top of the World Trade Center back before the new one. And he also writes and does music as does Kevin Borland. If you want to check out Kevin Borland's music, for sure, go to... I'll be right back. Facebook page. Okay. Pip, you cannot leave. Pip, inherited the tendency towards autoimmune diseases. Mary, and I'm so sorry. Oh, an interest in electronics. That's cool. We need a lot of deep confessions this week, aren't we? Condolour hyperplasia. Jaw used to lock and he would stay locked for days. Ouch. Well, that's unfortunate. Yeah, we're sorry. You have that, Yvonne Gamble. Pretty healthy on both sides. No chronic diseases like heart disease, cancer, or diabetes. I've got that in spades in my family that heart disease, cancer, and diabetes. Good eye hand coordination from M.A. Bear. Very lucky to have that. My hand eye coordination is not that great. Oh, really? Considering how much of a game are you? I'm surprised. Well, yeah, I play games and stuff, but I still, you know, can't make, like, free throws and, you know, basketball type of stuff very well. I mean, I'm definitely Larry Borland. Can you make cannoli? Yeah. Can you make cannoli? No, not really. Okay, so great. ADHD, leg-taking, A-Ran, John Warlesley. Oh, he was a patent engineer. That's cool. So lots of great answers on the question of the week. If it didn't get to yours, I'm sorry. Now, Thomas Caroline is saying in my dissertation of a thread response, I attribute my love of stringing instruments to the same branch of my family. I got the genealogy, a procession run from everyone played a string instrument there. Cool. I got a disease from my father, Ben Malzworth. It's been me, lots of hours chasing down scores, sources, trying to find my family tree. That's, I think that's the best question to the answer, to the question of the week is that he got the genealogy bug from somebody in the family. That's pretty darn cool. That's pretty darn cool. That's a good one. If you didn't see it, you can check out the wiki tree company post in Facebook. You can also check out the G to G feed and go ahead and post more answers and we'll check them out. For all the people who said that you suffer with depression, we hope you find help and let somebody know that you're struggling if you are, especially in this curious and hard time that we have out there. Absolutely. Yeah, don't let things lie. Get help if you have, have that issue and thank you all so much for so many great answers. So Pip and which one, which one do you want to do, Chris? Which one do you want to do, Pip? Stupid pictures. Okay. Pip wants to do pictures. Do you have your screen ready or do you want me to go? No, I don't have it. Can you put it up? I got it. I haven't learned that capability yet. Okay. So the very first one, here we go. Well, that's an unfortunate first thing. 52 photos weeks of the photo, 52 weeks of photo. Hope. Okay. Hope. So it is actually appropriate. Nolan, Hope Nolan. So it's a tombstone and that's from Liz. Liz. That's great. Andy fishing. I've seen this one before. This is a great picture. Yeah. I can't tell if it's fly fishing or if he's just fishing fishing. Oh, he does have a little bad fishing. There's no, there's no reel. He's fly fishing. All right. That's from Anthony Amelia, George and Carilla Kerrigan's wedding day. Oh, that is very hopeful and spiffy outfits for the 1920s. Really? Oh, they're at, they're at Coney Island or something. You see the ferris wheel over there? Oh, yeah. Yeah. And the, the, the tents, maybe it's just a, that's cool. San Diego, California. So he, Phoebe Hope Long McGurk. Oh, that's a nice picture. It is. What kind of kilt would that be if that were a kilt? I have no idea. The Daisy May special. The Daisy May special. She does look quite hopeful. With a custom kilt. That's from Phoebe Finlesson. Nice. All right. Henry Thompson. Shopping up wood. Now I wouldn't be hopeful if I had that stack of unchopped wood to do. Oh, British Columbia, Canada. Oh, that's a great picture. Oh, Sarah, you're going to be sad you missed this one. There's a- Oh, she sure is. And a kid. That looks like why I was hauling my carts. Precious memories. Lizzie and I. Oh, that's great. Somebody's jalopy. You know, I just saw somebody driving one of these. There's a guy who has a restored one that lives here in town. For some reason, Bavard is just that way. Yeah. And I saw one on the Roswell Highway. He wasn't going nearly the speed limit because they can't, but it was, it's one of those things where you take your eyes off the road because you've got to look at this car. It was one of those. It was great. Yeah. That is funny. That is funny. Yeah. And Bavard is such a retirement community. Oh, yeah. John's dangerous handstand. Oh, that's not that dangerous. Look at where he, what he's over if he fell. Hey, this is not off the top of hope, you know. Look, he's from Great Ontario. Great Ontario, yeah. Let's see. Lady C, 1920s. Wow. And then Lady Second 1920. Yeah, that's about right. Tell us in the wintertime, she's got the heavy coat on. No leaves on the trees. No, it looks like the trees have been cut back. I know they do, too. Yeah. Got milk. That's great. Reminds me of Burt Reynolds centerfold back in the day. Oh, yeah. That's one from Cosmopolitan. Yeah. Let's see. Wanda and her mother, turkeys. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Is this snow on the ground? Is there a location on this one? No, there's not. Let's see. Herta Marta, Gus Bomber, mid-airer, talker, honor Laura, she's Zella, Lawrence, and Erin. Oh, there's Dieter. Alex. Excellent. Lawrence. That's gotta be from Dieter. That's gotta be from Dieter. It's gotta be from Dieter. But they look pretty hopeful, don't they? Yep, it's Dieter. Dieter sure is. Dieter is a little kid on the left or the right? Yeah, he's on the left. Yeah, it's a little blonde-headed kid. And they're looking at you, hopefully. Oh, what a great picture. That is a great picture. Birchwood Collier, Stoke-on-Trent, Patrick Shaughnessy, Galway Ireland, Newcastle Underlines, Traffordshire, England. Cool. Boy. That's a great photo. That is a great photo. That guy, I mean, goodness gracious. Is there a date on that one, too? Well, it says he was born in 1844. He just had his birth and death. 1924, so. Oh, when? 1915. Where'd you see that? Underneath the photo. Oh, okay, great. Yeah, that's a cool picture. A original charcoal of Howard Crook and Anna Comer Crook. She does not look hopeful. I'm sorry. She does not look hopeful. Nobody did in those old pictures. No. Well, you know, did these look like a picture that's been charcoaled over. What'd you say, Chris? Well, you know, those pictures had to take like a while to make. You couldn't smile in those pictures because it would have ruined the photo or something like that. They had to sit for hours taking them. That's a 10 type. So, yeah. Well, it says it's a charcoal. Oh, okay. It's charcoal. Well, think about Mona Lisa had a smile and she had to sit there for what? Hours, days. Lenora Hermans as old as the year in 1921. So, she was 21. Oh, that's nice. Florence McCain drifting down Sentium River. That's a nice picture. Sure is. That's a really good picture. Lynn County, Oregon. Verna and Kenny Blyre. Oh, how cute. What year is this? 1943. So, he's home on leave. So, that's his mother. Yeah, that looks like his mom. That's a great picture. That is a great picture. Oh, look at this. A competition photo. Oh, and it's signed. Well, it sure is. Stalag 38 Stringy Hanifos Bavaria. Well, that is a hopeful picture. That's crazy. Wow. That's that's one kind of sometimes. Stalag. Let's see. Photo sharing team of the week could run down these real quick. And sometimes there's a little more information. She was a wonderful lady. She was very much into animal rescue. That's wonderful. Oh, uh-oh. Sarah. Oh, Sarah's gonna hate this. Election 9 in 2016. I heard a noise outside and found these two cowering. Oh, Brian adopted the kitties. How sweet. Oh, there's the bear. Oh, lots of good comments on those. Here's another one. Thomas Kerneline. Thomas has got one in. Rather than uploading a new photo, as I usually do, I'd figure I'd use this one of my great, great grandparents, Ava Shriver and Leroy Jones. And their firstborn, my great-grandma, Dorothy. How cute. Wow. It's so unusual to have photos of your great, great grandparents. It is. It is absolutely. Especially in my case. Yes. Wedding day. Lizzie and I, March 1938. That's from... Let's see. Here's a car picture from my collection from the look of the cars. It is from the 1920s. I have no idea who the lady is. I asked my family and I posted this picture on local genealogy chat room and no one knows anything about it. So I hope someone can solve this mystery. It looks like the Appalachians or maybe the Ozarks or Kentucky. Wish I could read the sign over the building, but I can't see it. Chris is not clear enough. No. Let's see. No, and there's answers. Oh, Pat, the sign says Hurley Motor Company. Oh, he can read it. He must have enhanced it. And then there's other clues. The mountain, the type of trees, the pruning, the street has curves, the center blocks of the building have relief. That's great, Brian. Are you a photo detective? That's cool. People who do that amaze me. Hope is the thing with feathers. That's cute. So she's got a little chickeny eating out of her hand. My father's dangerous handstand in 1938 along a pile of rocks beside Georgian Bay, Ontario. Oh, the Hurley Motor Company is in Pennsylvania. Oh, there we go. Appalachians up there. Yeah, found in 1928. There's the cat milk. Who is that guy? But that's Deborah Campbell. I bet she could let us know. Yeah. Sorry, we're not kind of picking up on the comments from the chat. Hey, everybody. Wow. Navy v 12 unit on the college, October the third of 1944. They were hopeful that they didn't have to spend too much time in the war. That's a good one. And then we go, oh, and then we have the colliery. He was a laborer at the colliery. If you don't know what a colliery is, it's a coal mine. Let's see. This is a tough one. No one named Hope and the family, at least I know of yet, however, it seems hope can be considered. I like that. Hope it is my paternal grandfather, William Thompson, recently retired from the Burma Police homesteading on the east side of the Okanagan Lake in British Columbia. Wow. This ryer and mild climate will make a good home for his children. Wow. And then there we go. This is the Schifflett's family again. Nolan, Hope Nolan. I kind of like that, Chris. I like the things done. Oh, my grandfather's uncle Tom Dawson was a farmer outstanding in his field where he's hoping to crop the land. There's a plane landing in Chris's bedroom. Oh, I live in New Hampshire. I live for you. I die. That was a motorcycle. Wow. That is Florence McClain. Nice. Oh, here's the story. Yeah. Drifting down the river. That's fun. Yeah, another one we didn't see. I love the pictures. That's nice. And talk about family inheritance of Trace. Check out. Check out. They all kind of look alike. Oh, yeah, they do. Because some of them have the exact same smile. Yeah. And the lips, the noses, Elmore, Minnesota, and that's from Rhonda Scherrier. And those are the photos of the week. Those are great pictures. Yes, they were. Thomas Kerneline says that he started a project when the pandemic started to track down all the living descendants of each of them who I had already known and asked for around four photos. Cool. He's only got about four more to go. He says he's got 12 of his 16 great, great grandparents. That's really impressive. Yeah. And the last one is the connection. Authors. I think that she didn't come this morning, so she wouldn't have to pronounce that. All right. So Francois, Marie, Aureaux, Voltaire. That should probably leave. All right. So Voltaire was French, and he did not go by his real name. Sure did. Yeah. Let's see. So he's got a nice biography. There's some etchings from the heavenly insights down to Voltaire. Oh, and it's in French and English. So that's good. He was the illegitimate son of Claude Guerin de Rochebrun, a writer of popular songs and Francois Marie Aureaux. All right. Adopted the name. So he had already messed around with his name before he became Voltaire. Ah. Very cool. Mary Ann Cross, who was George Elliot. Oh, yeah. Journalists. She was not considered pretty enough to secure an advantageous marriage or any marriage at all. So she was educated beyond what was acceptable for a female. Why did I say capable? She also read Greedley from the Library of Arbery Hall, where her father was an estate manager. And they still got married anyway, so she got married in 1880, so. Oh, there's George. Wow. Oh, that is hilarious. The motorcycle going back and forth there. I'm not going to read this name. She's Norwegian. What's the motorcycle week here? Geez. Okay. And let's move on to Mary Murphy. So her pseudonym was Charles. So these are all women who were, oh, wow, Murfreesboro, rather for Tennessee. That's. Oh, yeah. That's close to you, Pip. Yeah. That's a lot of women. It's a Tennessee history of the town. Murfreesboro, Tennessee is named after Murfrees, great-grandfather, Colonel Hardy Murphy in the Tennessee mountains, Charles Egbert. Charles Egbert Craddock. I noticed that a lot of women who wrote back in the day used a pseudonym, a male pseudonym, because it was so hard for female writers to get published under their own names. Some ladies still do that today, too. So there's a couple of broken pictures. If we have some people want to jump on that to fix some of that, check to make sure there aren't copyrights on any of these photos as well. That may be why the photos aren't there is that they're copyrighted. That's a cool, a cool wiki tree page. She did that. Oh, anonymous. Nope. Yeah. Anonymous 50-year-old. Most for Cheryl. I think they're related to F. Scott. Hans Bookticker. Joachim Rodriguez. What? Yeah. Ringeldatz. Ringeldatz? Hans. Okay. That's funny. Hans Gustav was born. He was son. The English biography is not as well done as... Oh, there we go. There we go. Yeah. Mindy says we have some Dutch ancestors coming up in a future challenge. We... cool. Who does? Mindy just said that we have some Dutch ancestors coming up in a future challenge. No, you got kicked out of school. Hans did. Oh, wow. Well... Let's see. Cheryl's Dodgson. Lewis Carroll. Why is it men change their names? I don't know. Well, I guess people who are film and television people, they do that. Well, yeah, they do. You're right. They still do. Where are you from? So, I'm from England. Cheshire? Yep. Interesting. Alice. Henry Liddell. That's one of my ancestors. That's interesting. Alice Liddell. That's where it came from. Alice in Wonderland. No fun. That's fun. Marguerite Johnson. Now, I have a personal story about Maya Angelou. I want to hear it. Yeah. When I was in college, she did a master class week at my college. And I got to sit in on a lot of her lectures and I got to talk to her, not a lot, but a couple of times. So, I've actually met Maya Angelou. She was not a big person, but boy, oh boy, did she ever command a room. Yes. I have seen that happen. I've never met her, but I've seen that happen in other videos, whereas her presence is powerful. It really is. She walked in and you could have heard a pin drop. Yeah. And nothing. Yeah. She got her name Maya as a nickname from her brother. Yep. How interesting. Marguerite Angelou is known as Nuzuri, second child of Bailey Johnson and Vivian Baxter. He was a doorman, a Navy dietician, and a taxi driver, while Vivian was a nurse and a car dealer. Or a dealer. And easily distracted by her pursuit, a trait which makes her sometimes carry motherhood as a burden according to Maya. How fun. Oh, there she is getting the Medal of Freedom from... Yeah, the Medal of Freedom from Barack Obama. Nice. And she also won the Kennedy Honor as well. I remember that. Everything in the universe has a rhythm. Everything dances. That is so true. I love Maya Angelou, and I love listening to her speak. Her spoken word is really cool. And let's go on to the next one. Ethel Roberts, Henry Handel Richardson. Let's see. What did she write? Oh, an important, significant Australian author. Her novels include The Getting of Wisdom and Fortunes of Richard Mahoney. Dr. Shelley Viola Murphy says she loved her. Nice. And Lynette Jester is to the fellow who wrote Alice in Wonderland. I thought he was high on drugs when he wrote that. And Tiger Burning says we need some French guests. Okie dokie. Helen Goff Travers. P.L. Travers. Let's see. Helen Lennon Goff Travers. Another Australian. Another Australian. She's from... She was born in Queensland, died in London. Check out that. Look at that photo. That is fabulous. Mary Poppins. That's a nice one, too. That's cool. That is cool. Yeah, he's cool. And then let's see. The last one is Eric Blair. Oh, George Orwell, one of my favorite authors. Really? You don't say. Yes. I've got a copy by side of my bed too, Chris. What is it? 1984? 1984. Look at that. His mother looks hopeful. That should have been one of our... Ida should have been one of our... Pictures of the Week. So check out some of these connections that anybody, while we were doing this, actually go to your WikiTree profile to see who you were connected to. Oh, yes, I did. I am connected to Samuel Lemons, which is interesting. Did we do Samuel Lemons? No, you didn't mention Samuel Lemons, but... No, but he's... Yeah, he was a Mark Twain, so... Did he... Was he on the list and I just skipped him? Yes, he did. No, he's just another Saddamus author. I just... No, you weren't on the list, okay. Yeah, he was. He was? Yeah. Where are my... There we go. I'm 15 degrees from Samuel Lemons, 15 degrees from Mary Murphy. So I'm 16 from both of those mags. Let's see how I am to Samuel. Through my mother's side. All right. And Tom, I think we know what Star Trek Next Generation episode Samuel Lemons was in. Oh yeah, I remember that. Yep. He was also... Wasn't he also in a Voyager as well? No, that was Isaac Newton. Oh, was it? Yeah. All right, cool. So that is the Connections of the Week. So we've got some stuff over here. Some people are saying that they are 15 degrees from me. Who is he, John? Is that Samuel Clemens? Yeah. Yeah? Yes, it is Tom. Time's out on part 22. I am such a nerd. You are such a nerd here. No, I didn't miss Samuel Clemens. You were messing with me. Let's see. Yeah, he's not on there, but he's on the Connection Finder there. He's not on there, but he's on the Connection Finder on my profile. Yeah? He's connected through my mother like yours is. And Lynette says, Chris, I thought that he was in Voyager. Yeah, Lynette, yes. You know, Lynette, I think she was in Voyager too. Played by John Lee's Davies. Okay. And we're all connected to Samuel Clemens. That's fun. So I'm going to stop my share. Since you're talking to many right now, do you have what's going on with the Connection Challenge this week? Yes. Let's see if she wrote something. She's been writing to me. Please. Oh, I got it. The members that have already been participating have been struggling against an unusually large amount of living unknown, unknown profiles from a really old GEDCOM. Oh, no. They were troopers trying to help me clean them up. We finally did a bulk delete of those with no information and people can finally focus on brick walls. And yes, there are bounty points already. Yay, way to go team. Good. Yes. I put my head into the chat. See what's going on there. I see Mickey Hart work, you know, telling everybody what to do. She's in the Discord channel. Yeah, the Discord channel, which is very important, you know. People used to ask me when I worked as an engineer. Yes, I worked as an engineer for the Department of Transportation in South Carolina, and people would say, what did I do at work? And I said, I pointed a lot. They need you back in South Carolina. I promise you. You need you in the after too. I mean, we got motorcycles filming down the street right now. Oh, look who's here. Oh, I thought you haven't been asleep. Who is our person of the week? Who is our... No, let me take a look. Let's take a look at the website. Our person of the week is Heather Stevens, one of the young member of the Australian Convicts team in the Australia project. No, who's the Connection Founder of the week? The Connection Challenge, the Connectors Challenge. Lisa Leeson, there you go. She's nice. I talk to her on Twitter sometimes. Yeah, what does she do? God, Chris, you know everybody. What is this? Well, you know, if you can't Twitter every once in a while, you would know these people. I'm not getting old Twitter. I got time for that. I'm going to guess that she is not the president of FedEx Express Canada. Let me try. Lisa Leeson and Genealogy. Are you my cousin, resources and tools? Let me share this. Let me unshare that. Share this. There we go. Don't know how to close that. We don't want to join the mailing list. Can you not close this? There we go. There she is. I believe in researching your genealogy does not have to be overwhelming. All you need is a solid plan, a genealogy toolbox, and knowledge to use those tools. So Lisa is the person that we are going to be, that we're working on currently for this week. Yes. Her website is, are you my cousin, leesoleeson.com. Yes, and after her, we have Amy Johnson-Crow, which is going to be awesome. Yeah, that's right. Amy and I ended up drinking blueberry wine one night together. And that blueberry wine was the worst wine, either one of us. And there was a whole crowd of people here and Amy Johnson and Crow and I were kind of sitting on a bench kind of by ourselves drinking this wine and we were like, blah, blah, but somebody at this gathering actually brought that bottle of wine and we were trying to be polite about it at the same time. That's interesting. Well, you just think blueberry anything is, is the cat's meow. And I love blueberries too, but blueberry wine is not going to be one of those things. You know, I have a brand new batch of me that I'm, that I'm just set to brew. Oh, good. Cool. And I thought about putting blueberries in it. Oh, no, no. Don't do it. No, don't do it. Don't do it. Cherry's in. That might work. That might work, yeah. So that is our week in review. And thank you, Mindy, for coming in and saving us with Lisa. And Mindy also wants to add this information. Lisa has some great research tips and she's really nice. Yes. But we wouldn't have anyone on that wasn't really nice. All right. I love you. Good luck. And thank you so much for all the great chat and sorry that we didn't have the ability to kind of talk more about what you guys were talking about in the chat. But I'm sure it was really interesting. I've been reading the chat. They've been very active in just making comments about, you know, who's doing what and just being the usual normal selves. Good. Yeah. Oh, John Tyner says there's a big clap of thunder. Yeah. And Benjamin Malzworth says what I want to say is have a great day, everybody. And we'll see you next Saturday. Bye, y'all. Have a great shift. Don't take care. Bye-bye. Bye.
