I have a lot of questions about the whole affair, but I will stick to the one that's been bothering me for a while:<br /> <br />What kind of name is <em>Nifong</em>???<br /> <br />I poked around in some records and found that the Nifongs have been in North Carolina for a long time. George Nifong, the DA's 4th great-grandfather, is on the 1790 census in Rowan County. George's father Balthasar came to Pennsylvania from Germany in 1748 with the last name <em>Neufang</em>. The name was quickly corrupted to Nifong (North Carolina branch) or Knifong (Missouri branch).<br /> <br />So you can see that the DA's name has been around for quite some time and is not just recently trumped up.</div> Questors http://back-track.blogspot.com BackTrack Solving pedigree puzzles and making census of the news. tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19110863 2007-03-01T04:24:40+00:00 Easy Google Genealogy Searcher, Part II http://www.genhelp.org/?p=108 2007-03-01T01:15:14+00:00 <a href="http://searchforancestors.com/google/booksearcher.html">Easy Google Genealogy Searcher, Part II </a>, a companion to the original Easy Google Genealogy Searcher, offers additional Google genealogy specialized searches.

I don't know how I missed reporting this in January—the latest in a string of tombstone attacks where revenge was clearly the motive.<blockquote>Police in Lilburn, Ga., were called to the cemetery adjacent to Luxomni Baptist Church at 2:40 a.m. one morning in January to investigate reports of a man screaming for about two hours. They found Ezekiel Dejesus-Rodriguez, 24, pinned under a gravestone (with a bloody, broken leg) and said he had apparently been knocking over headstones for fun until one fell on him.

The world's first Beatle's concept hotel. (Opens October 2007)</li><li>VIP tour of the prestigious Turner Prize exhibition at Tate Liverpool. (October 19 - Jan 13 2008)</li><li>Free annual family membership - two adults and two children - to the National Trust.</li><li>VIP tour of National Trust-owned Beatles childhood homes and related attractions.</li><li>VIP tour of St George's Hall - which re-opens on April 23 2007 after a £23m restoration.</li><li>Free, special-edition copy of 'Liverpool 800: Culture, Character and History', by University of Liverpool Press.

But his is one of the few political blogs I read that produces more light than heat.</li><li>I've always been a visual learner. Back when I studied philosophy and my brain was still fully functional, I would sketch diagrams to help myself understand difficult concepts. Maybe that's why I enjoy <a href="http://indexed.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">indexed</a>—Jessica Hagy's attempt to "make fun of some things and sense of others."</li><li>The right side of the brain needs attention, too. Lacking any artistic ability of my own, I visit <a href="http://www.drawn.ca/" target="_blank">Drawn!</a> to wallow in self-pity. And, when finished, to appreciate the diverse talents of others.</li><li>Had I not gone to college to not become a philosophy professor, I would have gone to college to not become an economist. <a href="http://www.freakonomics.com/blog/" target="_blank">Freakonomics</a> is the companion blog to the freakishly successful book, and never fails to stimulate my atrophied thinking muscles.</li><li>You may know John Hodgman as "PC" in those Apple commercials, or from his appearances on <span>The Daily Show</span>. Offscreen he is an accomplished author and humorist, and blogs at <a href="http://areasofmyexpertise.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">good evening</a>. If you don't leave his blog confused, you will surely leave delighted. Here's a <a href="http://areasofmyexpertise.blogspot.com/2007/01/as-noted-by-captain-joy.html" target="_blank">sample</a>:<blockquote>OF COURSE, shaking hands with a chimney sweep will not bring you luck. That is a myth perpetuated by Disney.<br /><br />BUT NOT LONG AGO I consulted a contemporary, non-top-hatted chimney sweep who, EVEN THOUGH HE LOOKS LIKE A NORMAL, UN-COCKNEY HUMAN, told me he is constantly accosted by old women looking to touch him and thus ward off their horrible fates.<br /><br />SPECIFICALLY, he said, women of Polish extraction want to pinch him as that is the custom for squeezing out good luck from a chimney sweep in that country.<br /><br />I LAMENTED this unfortunate occupational hazard, and then I briefly throttled him. We all have our traditions.<br /><br />That is all.</blockquote></li></ol> <div class="feedflare"><a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/TheGenealogue?a=P7P9XuqR"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~f/TheGenealogue?i=P7P9XuqR" border="0" /></a></div> Chris http://www.genealogue.com/index.html The Genealogue Genealogy news you can't possibly use. tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13196976 2007-03-01T15:33:46+00:00 Get that age precisely tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24153667.post-4456707347553594502 2007-02-28T12:55:46+00:00 <a href="http://www.rootdig.com/uploaded_images/tseliot-708437.JPG"><img alt="" src="http://www.rootdig.com/uploaded_images/tseliot-707134.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div>T S Eliot was nothing on his draft card for World War I if not precise.
