Day 3 of NYSFHC. I did the one mile loop by myself and the 3 mile loop by myself. Things just did not coordinate with M.

I took T. to martial arts and Vic’s.

I worked with T. to look at some of what he did to my tree over on ancestry and we went over errors that he made. Notably, he put a death month in for my grandmother, when I have not been able to nail that down. I just do not remember, and I cannot find accurate records online — the Canadian death certificate will not be public for another 12 or so years.

I also worked on attaching 1950 census records to R.’s parents, my mother’s oldest brother, his first wife, my dad’s sister in law M. So many _ridiculous_ misspellings, some errors in the census, some transcription errors. I only found aunt M. because I had her address (with a street name spelled wrong!) in her high school year book. In most of these, I had to strip out all surnames and search on patterns of first name / birth year after getting as dialed in on the location as I could. City directory helped with FIL. I used Steve Morse’s pages to try to identify the right enumeration district. A lot of work that really I should not have needed to do. Oh well!

Oh, and in keeping with that line, my mother’s oldest brother got married and then his daughter was born 6 months and a week and a half later.
