Steve Morse Does it Again with People Finder Tools
Steve Morse has just added two new One-Step pages to his website Both are people-finder tools. One interfaces to the new Public Records database at ancestry.com, and the other interfaces to a similar database at privateeye.com. Both of these One-Step pages are in the "Births, Deaths, ..." section of his stevemorse.org website, and have link names of "Public Records" and "Birthdates and Related Persons" respectively. The ancestry Public Records database allows you to search by name and address. The results it displays back include the birthdate, but ancestry does not allow you to search on birthdate. The One-Step form overcomes this and allows you to search on birthdate. In fact, you can search on simply the first name and date of birth -- a very powerful technique if you are looking for married women and you don't know the married name. Such a search is not possible if you use the ancestry site directly. Middle initial is another parameter that the One-Step form allows you to search on but the ancestry form does not. The privateeye.com database lets you optionally enter the birthdate as one of the search parameters. But they do not display the birthdates on the results page. Note that's just the opposite of what ancestry does. However if you search the privateeye.com database from the One-Step form, the birthdates will be displayed on the results page. So you can use either of these two new One-Step page for finding people's birthdays. Of course Steve's original"Birthdays" One-Step page, which uses the anybirthday.com database, can also be used to find someone's birthday.

Names of Emigrants 1845-1847 at Montreal Quebec Canada
Olive Tree Genealogy has added another immigration database online It is Names of Emigrants from the 1845-1847 from Records of James Allison, Emigrant Agent at Montreal From 1823 to 1849, James Allison was a government emigrant agent at Montreal, Quebec Canada. He was responsible for the provisioning and transportation of destitute immigrants from Montreal to locations mostly in Upper Canada. There were several Emigration Agents in Upper and Lower Canada, each was resonsible for assisting poor immigrants in finding employment, shelter, provisions and transportation to their final destination. This database is an index to names (first and last) with information on where and how to obtain full details if you find an ancestor. This helps to fill in the challenging early years of Canadian immigration so don't miss having a look if you have a missing ancestor in this time period. Many immigrants arriving in Canada were on their way to USA, as fares were generally cheaper coming into Canada, so this database may help those looking anywhere in N. America

The index covers the Pine Bluff Commercial for the years of 1950 to present day, which includes deaths and obituaries for much of Southeast Arkansas. (Although deaths and obituaries are still being collected for a few months in the late 1980's which still need to be added. There are a few years prior to 1950 in the index, and work will proceed on the pre-1950 deaths after the 1980's are complete.) If one finds information in the index, they may request a photocopy of the information, but there is a nominal charge of $7.50. Click on the "request photocopy" link for more information.
