Publicly funded archives also hold the evidence of the decision-making and processes that shape our everyday lives. However, archives have a wider role than simply serving as custodians of the national memory. Archives can, as many already do, make a clear contribution to local policy initiatives that affect individuals’ daily lives, particularly in education and learning, empowering and engaging communities, supporting regeneration and facilitating volunteering opportunities.<br /><br />In recent years the information world has changed beyond recognition and the creation and use of information have been revolutionised. People now expect information to be accessible online at all times and archives need to keep up with this pace of change. Archives for the 21st Century sets out a path for publicly funded services in both England and Wales, to raise awareness of the contribution archives make to everyone’s lives and to kick start action to ensure their continued survival."Hugh Whttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12226946909815324207noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5667485.post-8579515943610185252009-11-30T18:45:00.000+00:002009-11-30T18:45:19.614+00:00DNA search for 'father' Christmas<a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/4460832.stm">BBC NEWS | Science/Nature | DNA search for 'father' Christmas</a>: "A team of scientists in Oxford is trying to prove whether families with the rare surname of 'Christmas' all descend from a single male ancestor.<br /><br />They want to compare the DNA of men from different Christmas clans to see if they are linked by a common genetic heritage as well as by their surnames."Hugh Whttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12226946909815324207noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5667485.post-20654522076421978702009-11-30T18:20:00.000+00:002009-11-30T18:20:29.355+00:001851 census completed<a href="http://www.findmypast.com/CensusPersonStartSearchServlet?censusYear=1851">Findmypast.com | 1851 person search</a>: "Unfilmed 1851 census records<br /><br />The 1851 census contains transcriptions and reconstructed images for around 180,000 individuals – available online for the first time – which have been retrieved from severely damaged pages.<br /><br />The records for the Manchester, Chorlton, Salford, Oldham and Ashton-Under-Lyne registration districts were water damaged many years ago due to flooding.<br /><br />As a result many were too fragile to be filmed or no writing was visible, but a 14 year project by the Manchester and Lancashire Family History Society (MLFHS) has recovered information from around 82 per cent of the damaged records.<br /><br />The reconstructed images follow the same layout as the originals, and where relevant include details of neighbouring households."Hugh Whttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12226946909815324207noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5667485.post-13128681005266169012009-11-30T18:06:00.000+00:002009-11-30T18:06:14.766+00:00Footnote.com offer<a href="http://www.footnote.com/">Footnote.com - The place for original historical documents online</a><br /><br />Best Price Extends Through Monday 30 November 2009<br />Get an Annual Footnote Membership for only $39.95<br /><br /><br />We are extending our best price ever for Cyber Monday.

At Ancestry.com, key data such as names and gender is often indexed and therefore easily accessible through our search pages for each German language database. However, the records are in German, and you will naturally get the best results if you search keywords, occupations, and place names in German. There is often a wealth of information available in the images of the original documents that can help you pinpoint your ancestors or learn about their lives and families. We have provided some basic tools on these pages that can help you as you work in German records.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.ancestry.com/learn/learningcenters/default.aspx?section=Research_EN_DE&sssdmh=dm13.224991&o_iid=23560&o_lid=23560">Research Center - Ancestry.com</a>: "Additional Help<br />Ancestry offers the German researcher many sources of help.
