It's Just History - Witchcraft
Events -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Did
you know that the definition of "Witch Craft" in 1692 in no way compares to
our modern definition of "Witch Craft"?
When you hear the word
"Witch" I'm sure that like many, a picture pops into your head. It's a
picture we've associated with the word for years, the black pointy hat, a
broom stick and lets not forget the ugly green faced woman. Along with the
mental picture, you probably think of her standing over a huge pot making
some vile potion with ingredients such as "eye of newt" or "scale of snake".
I'll bet that you never pictured a green faced witch as someones mother or
someones daughter...

Canadian Genealogy Index,
600s-1900s --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This
database contains over two million records referencing individuals from all
regions of Canada, as well as early Alaska. The vast majority of the records
fall between 1600 and 1984, although some records date before the 1500s.
Gathered over twenty years of research from over one thousand different
sources (including city directories, marriage records, birth records, land
records, census records, and more) this collection of names represents one
of the largest indexes to historical Canadian records available.

Military Records: Confederate Soldiers,
1861-1865 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- After
the Civil War, federal law did not provide for the burial or marking of
graves for Confederate soldiers who died in the North. At the turn of the
century, however, Confederate veterans' groups convinced the government to
pass a statute that provided for the appropriate marking of these graves. As
part of the project, the government compiled the 665-page
register.

Connecticut Officers and Soldiers, 1700s-1800s Military
Records --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Reach
further into your family tree's Connecticut branches! This unique and

individuals.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ==>

Ohio: Military Land Warrants Index
(1789-1801) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This
data set is an index to the land warrants granted in the Military District in
Ohio between 1789 and 1801. Information contained in this index includes the
name of the individual who filed for the warrant, the date the application
was filed, and source information including the page number the record can
be found on and the record title. Please keep in mind that this data set is
an index only. It is important to use the information gathered from this
index to locate your ancestor in the original records as original records
usually provide more information than do their indexes. Land records are
valuable sources for genealogical research because they help you locate an
individual in a particular time and place.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ==>

data set is an index to South Carolina land grants from 1784-1800.

the original record may be found.
