Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The far north of England is a key site for family historians. Many researchers, seeking to trace their ancestry back through the generations, will find their trail leads to the north or through it. And yet, despite the burgeoning interest in genealogy and the importance of the region in so many life stories, no previous book has provided a guide to the documents and records that family historians can use in their search. In this accessible and informative introduction to the subject, Keith Gregson looks at the history and heritage of the region - of Northumberland, Tyneside, Durham, Wearside, Tees Valley and Cumbria - and gives a fascinating insight into the world in which our ancestors lived. He introduces the reader to the variety of records that are available for genealogical research, from legal and ecclesiastical archives, birth and death certificates to the records of local government, employers, institutions, clubs, societies and schools.

Download or read book An Alaskan Gold Mine written by Leland Carlson and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2015-08-01 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An Alaskan Gold Mine: The Story of No. 9 Above is a notable and tragic story of the discovery of Alaska gold in 1898. The mine had so many implications for leaders and institutions of the Evangelical Covenant Church, a tangled and contested case of ownership extending over two decades that went to the Supreme Court of the United States on four occasions. Visiting Alaska three times doing meticulous research into legal proceedings and conducting oral interviews, Carlson succeeded in crafting a compelling narrative of gold, grief, and greed. An Alaskan Gold Mine: The Story of No. 9 Above remains a classic case study of the Alaska gold rush as a whole, as well as the particular context of issues and personalities unique to the bonanza claim staked by a Covenant missionary on Anvil Creek above the boomtown Nome.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most of us are eager to share our achievements, but few are willing to expose our failures. Half Heaven Half Heartache does just that as Judge Robert Alexander bares his soul on every page; good, bad, and ugly. Adopted by a Christian family, Alexander suffered terribly when his parents divorced, and struggled through military service as a young man during the Vietnam War. Embracing the horrors of a biker's life, he became everything he hated. You will love him and loathe him riding shotgun through Hell and back, watching him claw his way up from the lowest of lows. Seizing the brass ring of power, you'll endure his despair as he is blindsided by the agonizing emptiness awaiting him at the top. And just when it seemed hope was lost, Robert Alexander discovered the truth that even the deepest wounds can be healed when a man experiences God's amazing grace and mercy. Judge Robert E. Alexander is retired from the NYS Department of Correctional Services where he has served in a number of capacities. Additionally, he has taught for over 25 years as an Adjunct Faculty member at two prestigious colleges, serving on numerous civic organizations. Presently Judge Alexander presides over the Village of Corfu and Town of Pembroke Courts. Featured on radio, television, in documentaries, and magazine articles, he is the founder and Director of Men of the Harvest Ministries, a Christian charity providing appliances, food, and low cost vehicles for those in need. While holding several academic degrees, Judge Alexander is also an Ordained Minister who travels across the United States and Canada sharing the life changing message of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. He and his wife, Gerry Ellen, have beenmarried for 36 years, and have six children and 12 grandchildren.
