This is from a 1900 U.S. census record from Acadia Parish, Louisiana.

"Lavergne, Julien—Refused permittance into his house. He even would not let me come near his house. I did repeatedly told him he would put himself liable to a fine of $100 if he insisted to refuse to giving me the required information, he replied he knowed me. That I had [...] him once too high and he don't care what would happen. There he commenced talking about his shotgun and whipping me if I would came across the [gulley>ditch?] and I left.

I would also respectfully report that I started out on Monday July the 2nd to finish [...] my district but got only 4 miles from Crowley "my residence" when a [billion?] attack of fever took me and I had to return home and called on Doctor N. B. Morris for treatment. I have been confined in bed 4 days and got up to write this report and to send off my Scheduler but could not finish it. I had to lay in bed again.

Yours very respectfully

Joseph [...]

Enumerator"

2017 Northern Florida Genealogical Conference:

Recently, I was invited as a Guest Speaker to the Northern Florida Genealogical Conference. As I pondered which specific subject to speak about it came to me to play a game and get everyone involved. I wrote the barest minimum of information that was given to me, on 3 x 5 cards and handed them out and asked the guest to read to me what was on the card as I wrote the information on the board.

One of the cards simply stated, “Joseph Checcia, WWll.”

I looked at the audience and asked, “What do I do? What does this mean? Where are the clues and how would I find this person- ANYTHING about this person- ANYTHING?” (What would you do?)

This is what I learned about Joseph Checcia:

Obviously, he was in World War II. Upon receiving his war records it was discovered that he died a hero!

Their plane was flying over France and it was shot down-yes, the plane was going down! Joseph was the Jumpmaster. He stood in the doorway of the airplane as he helped each of his unit members, each man jump to their safety, and saved their lives. Finally, Joseph was the last one to jump. As he jumped, with the plane rapidly nose down racing to the ground ready to crash, Joseph jumped. He tried to get his chute opened. He did not have time. Each of his comrades and fellow soldiers watched from the ground mortified, somber, as they landed to safety and as the man who save their life met his untimely death.

It was because of Joseph that these men went on to have a life, come home, marry, and have a posterity, of which the daughter of one such man found me, with the simple name of Joseph Checcia, wanting to find out everything about him and his family that she could so that she could preserve his memory for her own posterity as the hero that enabled her father to come home and have a life and a family.

Joseph is what we would call an unsung hero. A simple 22-year-old young man who joined the Army after the bombing of Pearl Harbor at the commencement of World War II, leaving his girlfriend, his mother and father, with a wave and a smile thinking he was going to save the world and then come home and live a happy life. Little did anyone know, let alone him, that he would save an entire unit which in turn saved hundreds of people that were yet unborn, never to return home again.

Knowing that Joseph joined the war in 1941 and realizing that he was more than likely around 20 years old like the rest of the young men who joined the war, I was able to find him on the 1920 Census as a baby and then the 1930 Census as a 10 year old. I was able to find his mother and father and siblings, and also his mother and father’s marriage record, which in turn gave me his mother’s maiden name, and enabled me to find his mother as a child with her parents on the 1910 Census, as well as Joseph’s father with his parents on the 1910 Census and extend that entire family.

Mission accomplished. Joseph’s memory as a Hero and entire family was found, located, recorded, shared, and preserved.

How can a child go backwards greatly in age from one census to another? Look for a death record for the first child. In the 18th and 19th centuries, it was not unusual to name a new baby after an older child that had passed away. ---------------- #digginyourancestors #children #death #familyhistory #familyresearch #familytree #ancestor #ancestry #names #naming #genealogy #genealogist #census #censusrecords

All it took was one question to my Dad..."Who was Grandma's father?"... to open up a door to Pandora box leading to my Ancestors. That was a question I didn't ask until I was in my 30s. Growing up I had no clue, nor interest. Come to find out, my Grandmother who I had lived with at one point, was half Caucasian. Discovering my Great Grandfather gave me access to Ancestors that would have forever been unknown to me. Through this search I have discovered, Knights, Castles and things beyond my comprehension. My Grandmother's father was: Robert Edward Evans 1882-1956. His mother was Louisa Morning Middleton 1858-1938 (Mother of Robert) Edward Epps Middleton 1833-1910 (Father of Louisa) Martin C Middleton (Jr.) 1806-1880 (Father of Edward) Martin Middleton Sr. 1770-1820 (Father of Martin (Jr.) William Middleton 1740-1790 (Father of Martin Sr.) Martin Middleton II 1700-1773 (Father of William) Martin Middleton Sr (1660-1760) (Father of Martin II) Henry Middleton 1640-1685 (Father of Martin Sr.) Henry Middleton 1612-1654 (Father of Henry) Richard Middleton 1586-1655 (Father of Henry) Sir Thomas Bart Myddleton/Middleton, Lord Mayor of London 1559-1631 (Father of Richard) Sir Richard Myddleton/Middleton (Knight), Governor of Denbigh Castle 1509-1575 (Father of Sir Thomas) Fulke Myddleton/Middleton, Reverend, Governor of Denbigh Castle 1483-1553 (Father of Sir Richard) Ririd Middleton 1441-1511 (Father of Fulke) Robert Demiddleton 1415-1485 (Father of Ririd) #marriagerecord #paternal #censusrecord #ancestorpower #ancestryhelp #ancestor #ancestral #ancestry #ancestors #spiritual #marriage #discovery https://www.instagram.com/p/B45RMtolH85/?igshid=1m0vw7k1zcpxn

Yesterday, I mentioned that I located my Great, Great Grandmother Martha born 1866 in Louisiana. She is the Paternal Grandmother of my Grandfather Will, on my fathers side. But a couple of days before that, I located my other Great, Great Grandmother Mariah born 1875 in Mississippi. She is the Maternal Grandmother of my Grandfather on my fathers side. It appears that the Mother's in my family line has been emerging and showing me bit's and pieces of their information. Recently, I found Mariah's marriage information to my Great, Great Grandfather Edward Moss. I did further research and gathered information on the County/Town that my Family/Ancestors once lived. It is also the place Mariah and Edward was married. I even found a picture of the Courthouse. This is some of what I read about Issaquena history: "Just before the Civil War, Issaquena County, Mississippi had the highest concentration of slaves in the United States. With the slave population making up 92.5% of the county's total population, Issaquena County was home to some of the largest cotton plantations in the nation." #ancestral #paternal #maternal #ancestorpower #ancestorpower #ancestryhelp #censusrecord #marriage #marriagerecord #ancestor #africanamerican #discovery https://www.instagram.com/p/B4xtZtslsCV/?igshid=wwo1goyhflxf
