Shona third 14 third street new mark at san francisco I like the frame on that I have a bunch of photos that I inherited from my grandparents that had that Mags had that Photography shop on there and that's the kind of thing you can look up to kind of date it sometimes. Yeah I'm not easy to the wide range, but my grandparents are really good about writing on their photographs And the other cool thing is that sometimes The photographers family have actually inherited all the negatives and everything and you can actually go back Or the the town took them in as a historical thing. So Knowing the name of the photographer and the address you can sometimes find the originals So you can get enough you can get a reprint from those negatives. Yeah, you think? Yeah That's negative ourselves too My grandfather he took a ton of photographs. That's why we have a ton of photographs down all over the place Or after every occasion.

Hi. This is totally taken around 1910 And she went And we wonder what So every time she looks at the susan anderson she wonders what nela was thinking as she looked at her little sister's hat Oh, yes, because look at that look on our face here. That's amazing. You need a fascinator another hat right below it Oh underneath it. Um, I didn't see the one on the Yeah, you have to direct link Like you it's the same picture Yeah, that's true. Does she have a locomotive there? Yes, she's standing on a train the front of a train That's a snow Pusher that they put on the front of trains in canada or places where snow piles up So the snow the snow gets pushed off out of the way of the train Most difference unlike the cow catchers You know Um, that's what I thought they were called as cow catchers Great aunt sometime in the 1900s lover expression for dressed the train That's cool. That is cool Yeah, and uh, this one didn't this one didn't show up at all That's sad All right, here's a photo of my feet being parents. I'll be proud. Let's take a look at this one real quick We have a photo because of the teddy bear sitting at their feet. All right, we got a teddy bear here, so I see it. Yeah Yeah, that's nice That's a really good quality photo Yeah, that's a very typical pose I like it I like it a lot. I wonder what the significance was of the teddy bear though It will probably belong to one of the kids, but I don't know Anyone do a little because Lord knows I say it's some stuff when I was a kid so It looks like one of those german steiner bears Those are really uh collectibles now Yeah We're gonna look again at this teddy bear. There it's oh down in the front. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah Yeah Wow But you know what you need to do donna you need to label Oh, everybody is She's leaving one for us. You can also you can also attach each one of their profiles to that picture as well Yeah I've done that with like most of my group shots, so Oh, you know that picture was taken nearby? Yeah I would say in the 19 Teens or early 20s. Yeah. Yeah No 1914 they say before Yeah, just highlighted that Yeah, the picture was taken not far from where my kilter maker lives. Just so you know Oh, yeah, I drove through that area not not longer though Bipper you wearing a kill oh serial kilter. I see the oh, that's just yeah, everybody walk robertson red Robinson red robertson robertson All right, we have I see my great-grandparents Lewis Anderson old occur with mary ellen Uh, please Oh the girl and their children Yeah The little baby couldn't keep still No That's a great photo It is You can see that the contact print where they put A thumbtack in question is is that a cat face in the window? I think maybe on top there Yeah, you know how i'm always looking in the windows in the door of these people computers back by There's no spookier bags. There's nothing there There's a cat face in the window. Looks like a cat But that's not a cat face That is a cat face Okay Okay, and that's the last one that's the last on wiki tree Going to check the fb4 group or um Well, let's let's say no for now Fair point, but Yeah, one of my favorite photos you're gonna show your yeah, you show one of yours there you go You know I'm probably one of my favorite photos of pinchenzo and pretend to feel yellow and Maybe it has to go and sadly my great aunt nicolea passed away That's three months ago. So I'm gonna go to blog about her How she got me into genealogy without actually Telling me it was genealogy. That's just how And before you knew your hooks Yeah Great job doing that chris Thank you so much Great stuff Okay, so we are going to The question of the week or the profiles of the week The theme this week was remarkable marks um and uh I think that was it was chosen partly because we just finished off the wiki tree challenge with mark hamill and Hold on how we did There is the um, there's a fan chart. Lovely fan chart there. Uh, well done. Mindy. I think Mindy's in the chat, too um showing Showing um, the results of all the ancestors that have been added to mark's family tree and Mindy's color coded this by country So you can see their country of origin There in the dark blue All the americans are american born um are in red Light blue is the uk The green is ireland Uh in sweden A good chunk from sweden, too. So that would be his mother's side. I'm guessing right mother's father's side um There and scotland is a darker green The brighter green there So very interesting Fan chart of my family I would have not had any of these colors all all of them would be red It would just be one big red thing until you get back to the 1700s I mean because your family's been in the states so long, right? All of the branches. Yes Yeah, the only thing I was I would have said Is I would have colored canada red because you know our flag is red and white And blue for the states because you're red and white and blue. So blue's appropriate, but anyways That's a minor minor hit But in my fan charts, that's how I custom colorize them Yeah But that's okay. This works too because you know, uh, canada is from sea to shining sea. So blue is appropriate there, too. So um There are more than one way to skin a fan chart Um What's So let's have a quick quick boo at uh mark's page Born in 1950s, uh, he's private. So it just says the Biographical data at the top just says 50s, but the biography actually pinpoints that Born on the september 2nd 1951 in oakland, california to william thomas hamill jr. And virginia susanne johnson Uh famous Yeah, chris. Yeah chris here actually wrote Okay, I can't see the stream yard thing. So i'm not sure which direction I should be Now Chris wrote the bio and tweaked uh mark's um profile before the challenge began. So good work there chris Um, of course most famous for luke skywalker in the star wars franchise, but also as the voice of the joker in various adaptations of the clown prince of crime nice turn of phrase there chris um So some of you who don't watch cartoons or superhero or comic books type shows or or consume that type of meaning It may not realize that uh, he had quite an extensive career as playing the joker Many in uh audio form, but he did show up in episodes of the flash playing a joker like character The trickster yes, uh, but he was one of seven children and during his early life He moved frequently because his father was in the the military Uh, I imagine being one of seven he like he wanted attention. And so that Probably is what led him into the drama club and in his career Uh, anyways quite a nice, uh bio here profiling his acting career and writing career. Um So I encourage you to read that have a look see Good stuff then now. Let me see if I've got things in the same order Because pimp and I are sharing the the profiles this week. So if I Let's see. So mark bolin is next Um, the next mark that we're featuring and his bio is pretty pretty short here Born in 1947 and passed away in 1977 Buried at golders green. So that doesn't really give you the whole synopsis But if you go to his wiki With wikipedia article then you can find out a lot more about him Basically, this mark was sort of the founder of glam rock So those of you, um, who Have been around long enough, uh, we'll be familiar with glam rock. That's the sort of the category of Of rock that david bowie, uh, really popularized But uh mark was the sort of the one who Instituted it and started it. He had a band called t rex a psychedelic psychedelic folk band and um And a bunch of hits none of which I know But he did meet uh boy and they said, uh in the article friend and sometime rival But he sadly he did pass away if you look here He passed away at age 29 just a couple weeks short short of his 30th birthday And it was in a car accident and what's interesting in the wikipedia article talks about this He never learned to drive. He had a fear of driving in cars And he wasn't driving but his girlfriend was driving And he was in the passenger seat and she went off the road hit a tree and he was killed instantly So very very tragic. It's it's like he knew something was would go wrong if he was driving her in the car So that's kind of sad Greg, you wouldn't be the only one to not know much about that style of music either Oh really? I was based on classical piano, so uh, I'm really sad Yes Yeah, same thing, but Moshe Zekorovich Shigal also known as Mark Shigal Famous painter was born in Russia or in the russian empire and Lyotz not near Vitebsk Um, I'm not going to pronounce his wife's names. Um Because I can't even read The Cyrillic language there, so can you and valetina is too hard for you? Oh, well, I could have but then then the other one would be the first one would be upset that I ignored her So if I just ignore all three, um, then I treat them equally Oh, I missed those and fells Yeah, that's right. So, uh, Moshe Zekal was um, uh, born into a jewish family in the russian empire And the variant of his name Siegel, uh, which in the jewish community is usually born by a levitic family So descendants of Levi I think that means um, his father was a herring merchant and his mother sold groceries um So he they moved from russia um And uh, eventually ended up in paris and so he's often referred to as a russian French painter because of those sort of two nationalities were the the primary ones and um, there's some pictures here Of his of his paintings um, but again going to the wikipedia article will give you a whole bunch of um paintings and uh, quite popular for modernism. It was the style of painting that he was there for um, and there was one person I think it was I think it was Picasso who said that um, he was the last painter Left to under really understood color Which is an interesting quote to say about uh His paintings are really, uh Hard to get meaning out of you really got to talk to the Artists to kind of understand what is actually going on in the picture. What was in the artist's mind? And it's hard to tell when you look at the chagall's Chris is the closest of all of us to mark chagall 16 degrees Yeah, it's also 16 degrees to mark hopkins. So that's pretty close Wow I'm trying to check everybody else Meg's really good about that. I know the one that I'm closest to um, there's only Was it hopkins? Uh, I think I think his wife is actually a cousin like um, I'm not I can't I can't remember what the number is But we're actually a cousin sometime removed, but just fairly close So I'm married to or he's married to one of my cousins cat Kathy nabba is closest to marky ross Going up So many posts so little time Yeah, I don't know Uh, the next mark is marcata dragomere the queen concert of dimmark bohemia born 1186 So I'm pretty sure she is the oldest profile or the one born earliest in the year um Queen concert of denmark first spouse of king valdomar of denmark Is the daughter of king permissal and otakara bohemia and his first right adelaide on lonson myson And She she quickly won over the heart of the danes and the new queen is now known as and her name Move from dagomere to dagmar, um, which is a very famous danish And apparently a figure of several danish folk ballads I don't know any of those either Be related, uh, greg because he's 19 from marky ross and 19 from mark hamill Yeah neat mark anthony munius Some of filipe munius and germina rivera uh he was uh He quoted about his dad. My father is the reason I started making music He taught me that you never stop being a musician. He always showed love compassion consistency as a father and a family man mark and his girlfriend Someone who talks about his weddings and who he's got married to but he is The one who's most noted Most known as he goes by mark anthony is his sort of stage name and he's popular for Salsa music And then mark hopkins. I think is the last of the ones that I was going to do. Is that about right? I think Mark hopkins was a real american railroad executive one of four principal investors that funded Theodore juda's idea of building a railway over the sierra naut nevada, which I think is a mountain range From sacramental california to promontory utah Yeah, and they formed the central pacific railroad along with uh, leiland stanford charles brocker and call us Greg i'm so wrong. You're closest to mark shagall at 13 Ooh That's very very good That's very close From your let's go see Oh, it's if you go it's only one jump Yes, see that's that's crazy white See that's what I told you did they have children you would share genetics with their children Oh, that's right Okay, so the white is fourth cousin three times rude. That's pretty close It is so if you have a bunch of uh, french Uh, you know, I I have a whole pile of labonte cousins Half of my de my ancestry genius labonte How cool is that? Okay, so let's did did they have kids? You and Hey So you might have some russian going on Wow, how cool would that be? Um, okay, so Over to you I want to mention about Talk to us the one right before is that talking about building railroads You didn't have companies that built railroads and a lot of times the devil wouldn't be involved. You'd have to get investors to invest in railway building and invariably People would go absolutely broke building these railroads Um, because if the investment would fail they wouldn't be able to get you know Pernicillin or they wouldn't get the work done Or some impossible thing like crosslin this year and above mountains and things like that A lot of folks back in those days Now that invested in railroads would flat broke because the railroads were just not It was just not a really good place to put your money at that time, right until later on that would be a larger Uh richer people the rockfellers and the Carnegie's and all those guys who were in the Railroad building that they had the money to do that without having to work out investing so much right Okay, so Yeah Plank from the peanut gallery that they can hardly hear you. I don't know if you can get closer to your laptop I want to get that better Just do this to the rest of the time and you see what I hear There you go. That's good Okay Okay, I don't have a lot of marks in my family. So I thought this was an interesting thread to do Perfect Marker is not a family name in my family. Uh, but but I do know this mark who was any uh astronaut remember I'm going down to uh uh, Kate Canaveral, Kate Kendi at the time when I was a kid and uh Mark Kelly happened to be there and I didn't have a chance to just I didn't get the meeting but I got to see the way I was older when I went back in the 80s. It was like, oh anybody Um, he's more than the 60s. He's a little bit younger than I am in 64 um Now those that a lot of the astronauts were also in some branch of military and kelly was in When he flew his naval aviator, uh, which my dad was in World War two Uh, combat mission was going to the Gulf War national top 96 Uh, I guess I did not know until I read this earlier that he his wife was a target of an attempted assassination in Tucson as a weapon I did not recognize that givers was his Yeah, and so, um, he is now the, um Representative from, uh, arizona and he's up for election this year. Yes Do you know she was a she was a politician, right? Yes. Yes. No speaking of dna who Yes, are we speaking of a dna? his twin brother Went to space and lived in space on the iss for a year and when he came home The brother was taller now. He's taller than his younger brother And his dna changed a bit because the The radioactive stuff that shoots through the cabin of the iss. They can't shield against it or haven't figured that out yet They're actually changing some of his dna. Yeah, I heard something about that about And now whenever he gets angry he turns into the Hulk All the other stuff that comes out of his face, uh, the effect it has when you're up there a long term Yeah, actually, wow He was taller than interesting. That's funny That's funny Uh, mark McGuire Mark McGuire. Okay. I'm I'm not going to Spill my prejudice here. I'm going to be very nice Hank Aaron One uh homerun hitter in the entire world Uh in american baseball to say the least, uh, uh, but anyway Not a braves fan. Are you? Who me? No I'm just a non-steroid fan. Let me put it that way. Oh my gosh. We're gonna get sued I think the commentary of some of our our hosts today are not the views of wiki tree. Oh, yeah, that's right.

Obviously I can't watch as much now because Assuming my life But uh, he really has uh, he's had a great career, uh 11 ball time in homerun for 583 Uh a 394 owned base percentage, which is really high Two-time major league leader in law.
