Farming in North Dakota : Bert S. Lambertson
A brief mention in the social notes of the April 5, 1912 Tipton, Indiana tribune gave me the clue:
"Bert Lambertson and wife from North Dakota are here visiting his sister, Mrs. Lola Whisler and family. Mr. and Mrs. Lambertson have not been back to Indiana since they moved to North Dakota which has been about five years ago. Mr. Lambertson's parents live here in Elwood, and he has a sister at Cicero and they will visit them while here. It is said they are thinking of remaining in Indiana."Bert Sigler Lambertson was my maternal 2nd-great granduncle. He was born August 29, 1886 in Tipton County, Indiana, the son of Carey W. and Clara (COOK) LAMBERTSON. Bert had married January 4, 1908 in Hamilton County, Indiana to Marie WILLIAMS, daughter of George B. and Louise (________) WILLIAMS. I had not located Bert in the 1910 census in Indiana, and it wasn't until this article was found that I knew where to search.
Source: Ancestry.com 1910 United States Federal Census [database on-line]. Provo, Utah, USA
I'm not sure who gave the census taker the information on this family, but even though it full of errors, I'm sure that I've found the right family. Bert and his wife were living with her parents in 1910 in Haven, Foster County, North Dakota.
Bert is enumerated as "B. Samuel LAMBERTSON" in the George WILLIAMS household. The relationship to the head of household has been smudged out, but appears to be 'son in law'. He is a white male, aged 23 years old, married for 2 years with one child living (this should only be filled out for females). Apprarently the census taker was having trouble with this household, for the sex column was marked both 'male' and 'female' for more than one member of the household. This 'B. Samuel LAMBERTSON' was born in Indiana, with both parents born in Ohio, spoke English, could read and write and was engaged in farming.
Right above 'B. Samuel LAMBERTSON' in the George WILLIAMS household, is Marie WILLIAMS, daughter, listed under her maiden name. She is also shown as a white female, age 23, married for 2 years, mother of 1 child who is still living. Marie was born in Indiana as were both of her parents. She could speak English but could not read or write.
George WILLIAMS, the head of household, was a 47-year old white male, born in Indiana. Both of his parents were born in Indiana, and he was engaged in farming. He could speak English and read and write. His wife, listed as 'Louie WILLIAMS' was also 47 years old, married for 25 years, mother of 4 children; 3 of whom were living. She was born in Indiana, as was her father; her mother was born in North Carolina. She could speak English and read and write.
Even though the census enumerator has him listed as "B. Samuel LAMBERTSON", I'm convinced that I've found Bert in the 1910 census, living with his in-laws. Samuel was the name of Bert's older brother, and you have to wonder who gave the information. One mystery is that Bert and Marie's 1 1/2 year old son, Frank, is not listed with the family. Perhaps he was with other relatives, or he was missed. The number of strike throughs on this census sheet and the errors therein make me wonder how accurate it was.

"Don't write this down!"
Today, while interviewing my mother over lunch, she stated "don't write this down" and then proceeded to tell me a fascinating family story. Of course, I just kept on writing, for someday she'll be gone and I don't want this story to pass into history.
It was a day like today, when the form was free-flowing and I allowed her to talk without interruption, that I obtained some of the most interesting tidbits about her mother's side of the family. Now, I must go back and get the stories of her father's side as well.
I'm keeping my notes private for now, but may extract a bit or two for a future post. I only wish I had been able to video the session for the full effect. Perhaps some other time I will be able to do so.

Matlida (Sherrick) Over photo
One of the benefits of posting my genealogy information on this blog has been making contact with others who are related and are willing to share information. After I posted about Matilda (Sherrick) Over, I was contacted by Paul Over, who sent me the following photograph.
This is a photograph of the wedding of Matilda's grandson, Leon Clair Over to Louise Haynes circa 1924. Matilda is the lady on the right with a white kerchief tied in a bow around her neck. She was Paul Over's great-great-grandmother.
Finds like these are what makes genealogy fun and relevant. It also encourages me to continue posting what information I have so that others might find benefit.

Alexandria-Monroe Twp. Historical Society Needs Volunteers
Received the latest newsletter of the Alexandria-Monroe Twp. Historical Society, and there is a call out for volunteers to reach their goal of opening the museum on Saturdays. Currently, the museum is only open on Thursdays from 1-4 p.m. or by appointment, and Saturday hours would allow more people to visit. Contact President Larry Maple at 724-3508 if you are interested. I've already let him know that I would be willing to help.
One item of interest mentioned in the newsletter was that the Anderson Herald will be publishing stories in March regarding the murder of Police Chief Ellis and Patrolman Virgil Kirkman. These murders occurred March 4, 1911.
If you haven't already visited, I would highly recommend you take the time to do so. The society has quite a collection of memorabilia and photographs relating to the history of the town of Alexandria and Monroe Township.
The society is located at 313 North Harrison Street, Alexandria, Indiana.

Will the 2010 census be genealogically relevant?
In 2082, when the 2010 U.S. census data is released to the general public, will it be greeted with excitement or will it be a 'ho-hum'? Provided there still is a United States at that time, what will the researchers of tomorrow be hoping to find in the 2010 census that they cannot find elsewhere?
Will the 2010 U.S. census be genealogically relevant?
Although the census is a genealogist's treasure trove of information, with each one revealing clues about a ancestor's family, their neighbors and their community, will the information from this year's census get lost in the 'noise' of the multitude of other records available?
While the 1850 census was a landmark because it was the first to record the names of everyone in the household, and each successive census asked different questions that told the story of the household, will this year's census shed much light on our daily lives for our descendants? I'm eager for the 1940 census to be released because of what it can tell me about my family just before the U.S. entered WWII, will my great-grandchildren be as interested to find out where I was in 2010?
The questions that will be asked on this year's form can be found here. While the answers will be information for future genealogists, will this be anything that cannot be found elsewhere? In today's society, we have created so many paper and digital records that I believe it would be unlikely a researcher in 2082 will find a clue in the 2010 census that couldn't be found elsewhere.
I believe that genealogically, the census may have lost its importance to future researchers.
That is not to say that it shouldn't be filled out, as it helps determine political representation. There have always been those who have managed to avoid the census, and even today, there are those who are advocating that others do not fill it out. Those concerned about privacy must be oblivious to the fact that we have at this time the most documented, regulated society we've ever had, and it would be a rare individual who cannot be found through online sources or public records.
As a genealogist, it almost sounds sacrilegious to even ask the question about the relevance of the census to the genealogy community. What do you think? Am I way off-base here?

Sidney Dewitt Ailes: World War II Draft Registration
Sidney Dewitt AILES was born August 22, 1887 in Montra, Shelby County, Ohio, the son of John Forsyth and Rebecca Lovina (DRUMM) AILES. Sidney was my 2nd cousin 3 times removed, a descendant of Phillip YOUNG. His World War I Draft Registration card can be found here.
At the time of this registration, Sidney was employed by the Perry Township School Board in Pemberton, Ohio, where he was a teacher. The 1930 census lists his occupation as high school principal.
An interesting note to me is that his World War I draft registration, when he was a student at Ohio Northern University, stated that his left leg and arm were partially paralyzed. However, this registration reports no mention of this fact.
Sidney married January 1, 1913 to Lina BAKER. Lina was born January 1, 1886 Jackson Township, Shelby County, Ohio. They had five children. Lina died May 7, 1983 in Pemberton, Ohio. Sidney died November 27, 1971 in Pemberton, Ohio.
