- Tracing Births, Deaths & Marriages at Sea
At sea finding the birth, death or even marriage of one of your ancestors? Well perhaps the event did actually take place at sea. This book will help guide you through the myth and fact of what records there are to help you discover the truth. Addresses what records were, or should have been, created recording births, deaths and marriages, aboard British Merchant ships (including colonial ones), passenger ships to the UK, and Royal Navy ships. Pitfalls and special cases such as events in territorial waters, and those related to army personnel are also examined.Subsequent chapters identify what records have actually survived, for what period, what they contain, where they are to be found, and how they are arranged. The book also summarises details of the provisions which a number of colonial administrations - particularly in Australia - made for the recording of events that took place at sea. There is a good section on subsidiary sources, which may throw up information not otherwise available, be this from newspapers, gravestones, wills or occupational records. The book concludes with a search strategy and appendices to aid your research. Written by Christopher & Michael Watts, pub. Society of Genealogists 2004,.

- Historical Vaudeville Theatre Listings
This site is intended for people who are searching for ancestors they think may have been working on stage as performers in North America. I've used the Manitoba Free Press as a reference and copied the names of performers, their acts and scanned the pictures that went with them. I have so far transcribed what was playing for most of 1913 in Winnipeg, Manitba, Canada. Since Winnipeg was part of the main vaudeville circuit of North America many people from all over the world toured through here. I have also included local people who perhaps provide 'songs' and such as a part of the larger program, if they are mentioned. I think I've been pretty thorough, though I haven't transcribed every word as they were very wordy. I have arranged it to be easily searched by performer's name. My format is to list the theatres and who and what was playing in each on a weekly basis, one week per page of all the theatres, and at the bottom of each page I have listed just the performers in order of appearance on the page. Then I have taken these names and put them all on one document in alphabetical order with the week they were playing beside each name. The searcher would thus be able to quickly scan the names, see what week they were on stage and then go to my weekly listing page that has a link for each week. Searchers have to bear in mind that in those days performers changed their names as often as they changed their act so you'd be advised to look for clues, which is why I thought a description of the act would be helpful as opposed to just a list of names. PLus its much more fun for me.
