I have mixed feelings about Ancestry dot com, but this could be an interesting #OSINT & #genealogy development.

As I'm growing older and experiencing my grandparents passing away, I've been digging into my family's genealogy. It seems that one of my direct ancestors, John Crandall (my paternal grandmother's maiden name is Crandall) of Rhode Island, has some amount of historical renown. For better or worse, I apparently share his tree with Lucille Ball, Katharine Hepburn, and Garrison Keillor.

It's interesting to learn about, but I don't feel much connection to the history. I'll probably make a point to visit Westerly, RI (where John was one of the founding settlers) at some point.

Harvard hired a researcher to uncover its ties to slavery. He says the results cost him his job: ‘We found too many slaves’

When the extent of the university’s involvement with slavery was unearthed, a scholar tracking descendants of enslaved workers was suddenly fired.

I am sad at what is now happening to the 23andMe company — that it has filed for bankruptcy, and is being sold.

23andMe holds an important place in the history Genealogy — and in particular Genetic Genealogy.

Although 23andMe had many applications, Genetic Genealogy was by far the most popular usage of it.

I.e., using genetics to understand ones family history.

#geneatip: Probier's mal mit #KI! Gleichartige Dokumente mit Schreibmaschinenschrift lassen sich damit bestens auswerten.

Ich habe z.B. mit #python gegen #openai die #Sterberegister eines Jahres per #chatgpt in #gedcom transferieren lassen. Das #script wurde vom #llm selbst generiert. Wichtig: gutes #prompting & kleine Aufgaben - gerne in einer Schleife. Manuelle Nachbearbeitung ist notwendig - aber die dauert Stunden statt Wochen an #transkription. Demnächst dann #deepseek!

#Bonjour! I need the help of someone who is located in #Paris, to go into the Cimetière Montmarte and take a couple of photos for me.

The De la Cruz family tombstone is in division 21, ligne 2/65, on the Avenue Cordier. I'm happy to offer 20 EUR to anyone who can get me some good snapshots of it.

For all of you not in Paris, please boost so that this request reaches #France!
