LINDA FITZGERALD
 VOLUNTEER OF THE QUARTER

The Board of Directors has named Linda Fitzgerald Volunteer of the Quarter (July through September) for her invaluable work as a desk volunteer, and especially for the generosity of her time these past three months when it has been so badly needed.  While we often speak of the desk volunteer’s “work,” Linda describes it as “fun.” She loves doing it, is so gracious to library patrons, and has a desire to help researchers in any way she can.

Linda has served the Society at many levels, and always with the same wholehearted gusto and reliability.  She has been SGS President and Past President.  Her first Board position was Director of Operations, which requires a knowledge of the basic functions of the society and the space which houses it. After that, she was Director of Membership. These roles have given Linda an invaluable overview of SGS.

But her contribution to us goes beyond activities on the Board.  Linda Fitzgerald has, with outstanding success, organized and coordinated a number of our association’s Seminars, which are held in the Autumn and in the Spring. These are the high points of our year and require an enormous amount of time and effort.  With the same helpful spirit, she lends a hand to the more routine but still important tasks that keep SGS moving.  She is currently a member of a new group that is digitizing some of our archival and other collections; and she serves on the Library Committee where she organizes and repackages the various periodicals in our library.

All the while Linda continues her own research.  Her interest in genealogy, as she reports, began while looking at photographs that belonged to her paternal grandmother, who had written the first, middle, maiden and married names on the back of photographs of her mother.  But on her mother-in-law’s photos, there were only the first, middle and married name.  Linda knew her grandmother was intelligent, very well self-educated and very precise. Thus what her grandmother chose to write, Linda knew, was not accidental: there was a reason for it. Determining what that reason was turned out to be the first step that stirred her interest in genealogy.  Linda’s research has by now, inevitably, moved back in time. Her ancestral group in Ohio, she suspects, must have dropped out of the ether into the Ohio River, whence they swam to the shore,  It is, she says, the old story of “there were three brothers.”  She knows the Tennessee group in her family came through the Cumberland Gap, but she is still trying to figure out where they started.  So for Linda, as for so many of us, the search goes on.

What’s Happening this Week at the GFO?

SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 3rd
Virginia Interest Group 10am – noon

Research in Virginia can be difficult, with the complication of “burned counties”, as well as the ordinary difficulties of using historical documents. But it is not impossible. We discuss the history of Virginia and explore various methods to do sound genealogy research. We hope to foster collaboration among our many Virginia researchers and work on our varied research problems, our “brick walls”, together. Each month we will have a discussion or presentation on a topic related to our research. There will also be time each meeting for discussion, suggestions, and perhaps research on individual research. We’ll also explore the settlement of Kentucky, the Carolinas and Tennessee. Please feel free to contact Judi Scott judiscot@gmail.com or Carol Surrency lcsurr@gmail.com with questions.
SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 4th

Meet the Board: Mikal McKinnon

Do you know who’s running the show at the Washington State Genealogical Society? Did you know we have an Executive Committee, six standing committee chairs and three appointed non-elected officers? Who are all these people? In the coming months, we’ll introduce them to you, so you can say “hi” the next time you see them.

In the first of our new “Meet the Board” series, we’re fittingly introducing you to President Mikal A. McKinnon from Richland, Washington. Mike, as we all know him, has been the WSGS President since 01 Jan 2013. His second term ends 31 Dec 2016.

Mikal, age 3 in 1944

WSGS President Mikal McKinnon

Mike and his wife Janet (who you’ll meet later in the Meet the Board series) are the parents of five children: four sons and a daughter. They’re also the loving grandparents of 13. Mike and Janet met at Utah State University and have been married more than 50 years.

Mikal was born in Salt Lake City to Archivald Graham McKinnon and wife Julia Wahlstrom, both natives of the Beehive State. Mikal was named after his mother’s supervisor in nurses training Mrs. Mikals.

Mikal’s interest in genealogy began as a teenager when his father had him type family stories while learning to touch type on a typewriter. Today, Mikal has searched family lines from Pennsylvania and New Jersey to across the pond in Ireland, Scotland, England, Wales and Sweden. Most often using FamilySearch.org, Mikal once found land records containing a reference to a will that pushed the end of one family line back three generations — an exciting find!

He has been the Tri- City Genealogical Society‘s president, as well as the Richland Family History Center‘s Assistant Director and librarian. Mikal has served in many Latter Day Saints (LDS) Church leadership positions over the years, in addition to 50+ years in Boy Scouting. Currently he and Janet are serving in a volunteer position with Family Search supporting LDS Church leaders in western Washington State.

What does Mikal do when he’s not doing genealogy? He’s interested in lapidary, cutting and polishing rocks to make decorative items.

More trivia about Mikal:

  • His favorite color is blue.
  • His favorite dessert is apple pie.
  • He said the single word that describes best is “quiet.”

Now you know a little more about one of the WSGS Board members. The next time you see Mikal, say hello and thank him for his service to the WSGS.

PUTTING YOUR ANCESTORS IN THEIR PLACE…AND TIME:

TIMELINES, CHRONOLOGIES, AND CALCULATORS

 

To understand an ancestor’s life, genealogists use timelines, chronologies, and online calculators to summarize a life and identify interconnected historical events. These methods are not to be missed as they can show us how ancestors are interconnected with each other; how their lives are connected to history; identifies discrepancies and inconsistencies; reveals additional areas for further research; and will ease the work of writing a memoir, a family history, or an obituary.

 

Jefferson County Genealogical Society (JCGS) www.wajcgs.org has invited Professional Genealogist, Janet Camarata, to be their speaker during a full-day Seminar on Saturday, September 17, 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. at the Tri-Area Community Center, 10 W. Valley Rd, Chimacum. A donation of $10.00 for the full-day Seminar is suggested. Janet’s topic “Putting Your Ancestors in Their Place…and Time: Timelines, Chronologies and Calculators” will demonstrate how these methods worked to help understand a family’s mid-1800s migration from Kentucky to Missouri to Kansas. Members and friends of JCGS are invited to learn about Timelines and Chronologies in the morning, while in the afternoon Janet will present Calculating Our Ancestors’ Lives that compares the life of your ancestor with your own life using online tools for computing inflation, cousins, distance, weather, etc. Bring your own lunch; coffee/tea/water will be available. In addition Heritage Books will be on site offering for sale a large selection of genealogy books and other items for family history researchers.

 

Janet O’Conor Camarata tells her family’s stories using all the benefits of genealogy, history, the internet and the latest computing tools. She is a member of the Association of Professional Genealogists and is an experienced instructor.

While in Kelowna, enjoy our great shopping, many beautiful wineries, historic sites and get in some genealogy research at our KDGS Family & Local History Resource Centre and the other great archives and specialty libraries close-by.  Be sure to scoop up some freshly-picked apples to bring home, too!  Go to the Conference pages at www.KDGS.ca, then take a look at the “Staying in Kelowna” page for lots of great suggestions and website links.  You may also want to stay on a few days after the Conference to see the Royals:  Prince William, Duchess Kate and little George & Charlotte will be in Kelowna on Sept. 27th!!!
