Single-sourced, not crowd-sourced. Each transcription we publish comes from a single-source, be it the cemetery office, government office, church office, archived document, a tombstone transcriber. Other websites already do an excellent job of crowd-sourcing a single cemetery together. But genealogists also need to see the original records from a single source. That's what we offer.

Using a simple, FDA approved test like 23andMe (or one of the others we tested), women like my mother are empowered to take their health into their own hands and see if they are at higher risks for things like breast cancer. At-home DNA tests are at an exciting time, with consumers using them to find out Carrier status, Health Predispositions, and Wellness information like never before. Adopted children can find long lost siblings and reconnect with families. We have no affiliations to any services we cover, we don’t get sponsored, we pay for the tests we take, and we have no obligation to anyone other than our readers. Our mission is to empower the average consumer to take their health into their own hands.

The deliberate effort to excite the emotions of jurors still in the grip of war fever is not unparalleled in the legal history of the times.... What is unparalleled is that such an abuse should have succeeded in a Massachusetts court. As things were, what wonder the jury convicted? The last words left with them by Mr. Katzmann were an appeal to their solidarity against the alien: "Gentlemen of the jury, do your duty. Do it like men. Stand together, you men of Norfolk."
