East Orange NJ
June 23nd 1941
Dear Cousin Edgar.--
Your Mother taught
school and was tutor for the children of
Horace Greeley at his New York home
and also at his country place Chappaqua
New York, which has recently been made
a public monument. Your mother and mine
were twins, born in New Haven, Conn
and spent most of their young days there,
and your Mother and Father first met and
were friends there. -- Many years after
when your Mother was a widow she
and her three children were living
with her sister Martha at No 50 West 16th St.
New York City. -- Just by chance she and
your Father met on Broadway
N.Y. - He had come across the continent
when the through railway had been
operating only three weeks. I recall
they were married in a church on 47th St
or 49th St west in the month of April 1869
I think just around the Easter season
and my mother and Mr. And Mrs. Shea were
witnesses.
In the Fall of 1869 your Father was
called to California to take charge of
the Sierra Buttes Mine near Sierra Buttes
City California – The following summer
as the weather was very hot in New York
City your Mother with her twin sister,
her daughter May King and her neice
Georgia Loomis went to Saratoga Springs
New York where you were born July 18th
1870 and where with much pride I
wheeled you about in your Baby Carriage.
Sincerely Your Cousin
Georgiana Augusta Sprague

My Dear Niece
Your favor of 20 Inst. received and will answer your questions as far as we are able. My mother Nancy Walls was born in Montgomery County Virginia April 6th 1777 was married to Albert Macy in Randolph Co. N. C. in 1802 and died July, 24 1874.
The exact date of her marriage we fail to get. Your inquiries in reference to grandfather Joseph Macy and wif we are unable to answer.
[Th]is is very common in such cases we have been careless about keeping the necessary Record of events till we find it quite difficult at this late date to look them up. I am sure there is or at least has been a record of these things, and they may yet be found and if so we will give them you.
Perhaps you have not heard of the death Sarah Ann Harris Aunt Lydia' oldest daughter who died from the effects of a second stroke of Paralysis three weeks ago.
We would very much like you to make us the Family tree you speak of it not too much trouble. I think of you often since I was in Indianapolis than before, and appreciate your kindness very much. We are about as we were when in your City. I am no better of my rheumatism and never expect to be.
Hoping you all enjoying good health I will close. Would love to see you all.
Most affectionately
your Aunt Phebe

THE EVANS COTTAGE
ROARING BROOK, HARBOR
SPRINGS
MICHIGAN
July 28 – 47
Dear Evans,
Heartiest congratulations
on your engagement! Of course I knew it was anticipated and it needed
only the matter of formality to warrant any mention of it! You are to
be congratulated on securing the regard and affection of such a
lovely girl and she has reason to be gratified that you are a man of
such outstanding character and ability.
May I also congratulate you
and Acme Evans Co that you have cast your lot with them. It will be a
great opportunity for you can make yourself valuable to them.
I expect to see you in the
near future but I wanted to put in a formal way what I feel about you
rather than simply a verbal expression.
With all good wishes for
your welfare and happiness I am
affectionately your
grandfather

Bible Records Found in Military Pensions
One of the joys of researching pensions, is finding documentation of family relationships.
One of the more exciting finds are the many early bible records that now exist within the records of the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA). They exist, because each time a widow applied for a pension, she had to prove that she was married to her husband.
Not all proofs were bibles.
Sometimes a statement of marriage from a witness would suffice, or a town clerk testified to a marriage from official records. If no proof of marriage was available, the widow would often take pages from the family bible and submit them. Sometimes there would be a fraktur, which is a piece of artwork commemorating a marriage or other event. They were mostly from Pennsylvania, but on occasion from other places. On rare occasions, one can find a ledger book where the family also recorded the family dates.
Each one I find is a new discovery, and although I have yet to find one of my own family's in the pension records, I have found related ones. I am also privileged that one bible of a Revolutionary War
This is a partial list of ones that I have found including some of the direct links to Fold3 or other websites. Fold3 is a subscription site within the Ancestry family, so if you do not subscribe, you may only get to an advertisement.

RootsWeb Review Articles and Columns 2007-2011
RootsWeb Review
RootsWeb Review was the first of the great genealogy online newsletters and published as part of the first great online genealogy site, RootsWeb. Founded by Karen Isaacson and Brian "Wolf" Leverich, Julie Case and Myra Vanderpool Gormley decided to publish the first edition of the RootsWeb Review in 1998. See the History of RootsWeb.
I joined the Review, along with Joan Young, as Columnist in 2007 and continued until it ceased publication in 2011. There were a series of editors, concluding with Anna Fechter of host Ancestry.com. If you wish to read past articles, follow the link to the archives and search for any of the writers, editors or contributors, such as Case, Fechter, Gormley, Sesniak or Young.
