4 Our hobby One-Name Studies includes seeking, locating, acquiring, organizing, cataloging, displaying, storing, and maintaining whatever records are pertinent to the individual study. Records can differ in a wide variety of respects, most obviously in the places they might be found, in relation to the name being studied, but also in purpose, presentation, and so forth. The scope of record collecting is unlimited, a fact expressed in the hyperbolic expression: "If something exists, somebody somewhere collects them." Sources for Data Collection Ancestry FindMyPast Where to Collect Data? FamilySearch My Heritage Regional Archives State & National Archives International Datasets Miscellaneous Organisations copyright Guild of One-Name Studies 4
5 Methods of Data Gathering The Big Three The Other Runners The Other Options One record at a time One data set at a time Method of Data Collection One time period One place at a time One area at a time One country at a time One continent at a time Type or Transcribe Cut and Paste Copy to Evernote Save Web Page Outwit Hub Backup Tools for Data Collection copyright Guild of One-Name Studies 5

11 Aims Approaches Contents Howes Study Sources Methods Tools Organizing Data Using Data to Reconstruct Families Source Citations Aims for Data Gathering - Howes Data gathering low priority relative to going online Gather enough to act as good checklists Do not gather too many checklists Do not bother reproducing most commercial providers own data copyright Guild of One-Name Studies 11
12 Approaches for Data Gathering Deal with small data sets NOW Grab FREE stuff Leverage visits other Guild members, personal exercise! maximize data gathered per time spent My one regret: I didn t grab Irish BMD data when it briefly appeared! Commercial providers: Ancestry, FMP, FS, Gale Specialist websites: Freebmd, cwgc, findagrave National Archives (Visit & Online) Sources British County Record Offices Newspaper archives (Times, Brooklyn Eagle, etc) US State Archives LDS Family History Library Graveyards Other Guild members & customers Methods Howes Study Download, e.g., England & Wales Births, Marriages and Deaths Visit archives Pen & paper least desirable Photos quick & useful Download+, e.g., data scrapers Daily web search results Daily obituary feeds (tributes.com, legacy.com) Marriage challenges, Guild Newswatch, Gravestone pix copyright Guild of One-Name Studies 12
13 Camera Gravestones Books Screenshots Laptop Spreadsheets Scraper s Tools for Data Gathering Organizing our Data Family History program try to restrict to reconstructed families only Spreadsheets, e.g., checklists Data files, e.g., US obituary files, images of US military records Volunteers, e.g., war graves & daily obits Webpage of early occurrences of our name Remember multiple backups Master Spreadsheet England & Wales Marriages copyright Guild of One-Name Studies 13
14 Our Main Goal We work directly from commercial data: census, BMD, baptism, burial, probate Enter every detail: 4 lines per person from most censuses Some data leads naturally, e.g., Norwich City births, New York City marriages Use additional data to add detail/color to individuals or as first person in new family Using Data to Reconstruct Families How we use data Help others check your research Simplistic, e.g., 1930 Census US Full citations take up too much space and advertize providers Xxxxxxxxx One-Name Study Source Citations copyright Guild of One-Name Studies 14
