Shallow graves unearthed at Helsinki’s Senate Square

A broken hot water pipe under Senate Square presented researchers with a unique opportunity to conduct historical excavations at the ancient grave site.
The area served as a graveyard from the mid-1600s to the 1820s. Bodies were stacked elbow to elbow in as many as five layers.

Northumberland coast's ancient grave secrets to be saved from sea

When 4,000 years ago the people living on a windy stretch of magnificent Northumbrian coastline looked for a place to bury their dead, they chose a beautiful spot - a low hillock of dry land above marshes and creeks, in sight of the sea but a kilometre safely inland.
Now the sea is lapping at the ancient graves, and its time to excavate the entire site at Low Hauxley, and rescue what remains of its ancient secrets.

Ancient Burial Cloth Provides Clues To Bronze Age Trade

After his death, his body was burned, the bones wrapped in cloth and transported in an urn. 2,800 years later, the remnants of that urn and cloth were discovered by modern-day researchers in Denmark. After a thorough analysis of the cloth, they determined that it was actually made in what is now Austria.

Ancient bones from Iron age or Roman settlement

Archaeologists who discovered human remains close to the A453 in Nottinghamshire believe they're from a late Iron age or early Roman settlement.
The bones which date back around two thousand years, were found in shallow graves during work to turn the road into a dual carriageway.
As well as the human remains, archaeologists unearthed pottery and jewellery including a jet bracelet.

9,300-year-old Kennewick Man skeleton found in Washington

Kennewick Man was definitely not a Native American, according to the most recent study of the prehistoric remains.
The 9,300-year-old skeleton actually has more in common with Polynesians, according to Doug Owsley, an anthropologist with the Smithsonian Institute who released an updated review of the bones Wednesday.
Owsley found that Kennewick man's skull has several similarities to the ancient coastal people in Asia, meaning he likely shares a common ancestor with modern day Polynesians.

Ancient graves excavated in hunt for Mona Lisa

Researchers have opened ancient graves in a dilapidated convent in Florence as they continue their hunt for the woman who inspired Leonardo da Vinci to paint the famous Mona Lisa.
The team of experts have been working in the Saint Orsola convent since April, believe the body of the woman who modelled for da Vinci back in the 16th century is buried there.
According to Italian art historians, the real Mona Lisa was Lisa Gherardini, the wife of a rich Florentine silk merchant named Francesco del Giocondo, who is thought to have commissioned the portrait - although there is no definitive proof of this.

Coffin Plate Of Elmer A Butler

This is the coffin plate for poor little Elmer A Butler. Elmer died on Feb 17th 1875 at the age of 2 years and 7 months. As little Elmer was only 2 in 1875 we will not be able to find him on the census. But perhaps someone will know who he was.

Searching Free Michigan Death Records for a Massey

I've been searching the free online Michigan Death Records for my William Ivis Massey who most likely died sometime between 1891 and 1898. So far I've had no luck which leads me to think he may have died elsewhere.

Since he worked for the railroad it is quite possible he was in another state or even back in Ontario Canada where he had family.

William was born in 1847 in Quebec (called Canada East at the time) and was married twice. The first marriage was to a Miss Wheeley, the second to Jeanette (Jennie) MacDonald. I've not been able to find out his first wife's name nor when she died. But by 1878 he and wife #1 had a son George born in Ontario, and by 1881 he was in Detroit Michigan marrying Jennie.

If you recognize any of these names, contact me at ancestorsatrestATgmail.com (change the AT to @)

Here's the links for the free Michigan death records:

Historic Home Once Owned by Olive Tree Genealogy

Original article written by Lorine McGinnis Schulze of Olive Tree Genealogy and published here in part with her permission.
House present day

This is one of the homes I used to live in. We bought it in 1974 and lived there for three years. It was built in 1902 and has recently been classified as a historic home.

I wish the cute little barn/garage at the end of the driveway was visible. I'm not sure when it was built.

The home, when I lived there, had a front and back staircase. The back one went from the kitchen to an upstairs bedroom and I assume it was originally for the servants.

Old Tombstone Kills Young Boy in Utah

Parents and Grandparents - watch your children! Please be sure to teach them about the dangers of old tombstones. This is a very sad but true story of a young boy killed by an older tombstone when it fell on him.

Every year hundreds of people are injured and killed by older tombstones that have fallen into disrepair. Contrary to popular belief, it is not the responsibility of the cemetery to maintain these stones! It is up to the families of the deceased.

Don't let your children push or lean against tombstones. Don't let them play hide and seek. We've all done it but we need to think about it and try to prevent such tragedies from happening

Free Access to Ancestry.ca June 27-July 2



Ancestry.ca Family history website offers free access to more than 40 million historical records that trace the development of the nation over the last 145 years

June 27, 2012 (TORONTO) – In honour of Canada Day, Ancestry.ca, Canada’s favourite family history website, is offering free access to 40 million historical records that outline just how far the country has come as a nation in the past 145 years.

Available free from June 27 through July 2, the records cover the years leading up to and following Confederation and include censuses, birth, marriage and death records, passenger lists, military records and many more.

“Many Canadians today celebrate the diversity of our nation but that multi-culturalism only came following a period of incredible growth and development in the years immediately before and after nationhood,” said Ancestry.ca’s Julie Wingate. “These records really paint a picture of how much we’ve changed as a country and give us a real reason to celebrate Canada Day.”

In 1871, just four short years after Confederation, Canada conducted its first Census as a nation and the results showed it was a country made up of British and French immigrants and a stark lack of diversity.

In fact, according to the 1871 Census of Canada:
  • Just 101 people are listed as being of Russian origin, compared to 500,000 in 2006
  • Nearly 900 people are listed as being Italian, compared to 1.4 million in 2006
  • Only one man is listed as being of Chinese descent in the 1871 Census, compared to 1.3 million in 2006
Between June 27 and July 2, millions of records will be accessible to Canadians for free on Ancestry.ca. The records are from some of the largest collections on Ancestry.ca, including:

·         Canadian Passenger Lists and Ocean Arrivals - outlining the masses of people who arrived by ship -- the only form of international travel available to people at the time -- at port cities across Canada
·         The 1871 Census of Canada - the first Census Canada conducted as a nation, which gives a snapshot of the life of the people living at the time, including who they lived with, their ages, their jobs, the birthplaces of their parents, their neighbours and more
·         Vital records (i.e. birth, marriage and death records) from British Columbia, Ontario, Quebec and Nova Scotia - outlining the significant moments in the people’s lives like children born, marriages and deaths.

Soldier's remains found at Waterloo


Almost 200 years after Napoleon was defeated at Waterloo, Belgian archaeologists have unearthed the complete remains of a young soldier.

Believed to have died June 18, 1815, the remains were found under 15 inches of soil as if the young soldier's comrades had hurriedly buried him when he fell on the battleground 

"You can almost see him dying," Belgian archeologist Dominique Bosquet said of the skeleton, lying on its back with the spherical musket ball that felled the soldier still between his ribs.

Believed to have died June 18, 1815, the remains were found under 15 inches of soil as if the young soldier's comrades had hurriedly buried him when he fell on the battleground.

Vampire graves discovered near Black Sea

Archaeologists have excavated two suspected "vampire" graves in the Black Sea town of Sokopol, Bulgaria. Each 700-year-old skeleton had an iron rod pinned into its chest. This reflected the customs and the times, when villagers feared that bad men had the power to rise from their graves.

Mass Grave Begins Revealing Soldiers' Secrets

It was one of the bloodiest battles of the Thirty Years' War, but until recently there was no trace of those who died there. Now a mass grave is shedding light on the mysteries of the Battle of Lützen.

The Hunt For Robert Evans 1845~1877



This Coffin for Robert Evans is a rather interesting one as it has a photo of Robert glued to the back. It is also a nice example of this particular design as it is in good condition. The engraving is perhaps not the best quality but it has a nice look to it all the same.

Died
Dec 15th 1877
Robert Evans
Aged 32 Yrs


The first thing I did was go and have a look in the death records on Ancestry.com but I could not spot Robert. Then I went and had a hunt in the 1870 United States Federal Census as this would have been the last census that Robert would have been in before his death in 1877. I found about 25 Robert Evans in the census but of course I had no idea if one was my Robert. Now most coffin plates are from the North East United States. The custom of keeping them after the funeral was most common in States like Vermont, New Hampshire, New York, Maine. The farther away from the North East you get the less common they become. So with this in mind I discarded all the Roberts from States that the custom of keeping coffin plates was not that popular. Of course we have no guarantee Robert was not from the one of the States I discarded but statistically its unlikely.  This resulted in a list of about 16 candidates.

1870 United States Federal Census     

Robert Evans, Union, Porter, Indiana abt 1844 Ohio 
Robert Evans, Fair Haven, Rutland, Vermont abt 1844 Wales 
Robert Evans, New York Ward 8 District 10 (2nd Enum), New York, New York abt 1844 Ireland 
Robert Evans, Israel, Preble, Ohio abt 1844 Ohio 
Robert Evans, Buffalo Ward 4, Erie, New York abt 1845 Ireland 
Robert S Evans, Hempstead, Queens, New York abt 1845 New York 
Robert Evans, Lincoln, New Hanover, North Carolina abt 1845 North Carolina 
Robert Evans, Allegheny Ward 3, Allegheny, Pennsylvania abt 1845 Pennsylvania 
Robert M Evans, Centre, Union, Indiana abt 1846 Ohio 
Robert H Evans, Marion, Hamilton, Iowa abt 1846 Indiana 
Robert Evans, Pottawatomie, Pottawatomie, Kansas abt 1846 Pennsylvania 
Robert Evans, Lyons, Ionia, Michigan abt 1846 Ireland 
Robert Evans, Washington, Osage, Missouri abt 1846 Missouri 
Robert Evans, Marshall, Saline, Missouri abt 1846 Missouri 
Robert Evans, Rockfish, Cumberland, North Carolina abt 1846 North Carolina 
Robert Evans, Portsmouth Ward 1, Scioto, Ohio abt 1846 Wales 

 I then went and had a look in the 1880 United States Federal Census. As the Robert I am looking for died in 1877 I can subtract any of the Roberts who are on the 1880 Census from the 1870 Census.


Robert W. Evans Jemima Marshall, Oneida, New York abt 1843 Wales Self (Head)
Robert Evans Elizabeth H. Meigsville, Morgan, Ohio abt 1843 Ohio Self (Head)
Robert Evans Harriett Fair Haven, Preble, Ohio abt 1843 Ohio Self (Head)
Robert Evans Martha Floyd, Oneida, New York abt 1844 Wales Self (Head)
Robert W. Evans Mary Kirkland, Oneida, New York abt 1844 New York Self (Head)
Robert Evans Jennie Sidney, Montcalm, Michigan abt 1844 Ireland Self (Head)
Robert M. Evans Bellevue, Grand Forks, Dakota Territory abt 1844 Canada Brother
Robert B. Evans Nancy E. Cartecay, Gilmer, Georgia abt 1845 North Carolina Self (Head)
Robert Evans Lower San Miguel, Ouray, Colorado abt 1845 Michigan
Robert M. Evans Minerva J. Monroe, Miami, Ohio abt 1845 Ohio Self (Head)
Robert Evans Zanesville, Muskingum, Ohio abt 1845 Wales Self (Head)
W. Robert Evans Robert, Elizabeth MT Pleasant, Racine, Wisconsin abt 1845 Ireland Son
Robert Evans Joanna Salt Springs, Saline, Missouri abt 1845 Missouri Self (Head)
Robert Evans Margarite Boston, Suffolk, Massachusetts abt 1846 England Self (Head)
Robert Evans Pottawatomie, Pottawatomie, Kansas abt 1846 Pennsylvania
Robert H. Evans Elisibeth Medicine, Rooks, Kansas abt 1846 Indiana Self (Head)
Robert M. Evans Ellena Buffalo, Erie, New York abt 1847 Ireland Self (Head)
Robert J. Evans Mary B. Johnstown, Fulton, New York abt 1847 New York Self (Head)
Robert Evans Mary A. Murray, Clarke, Iowa abt 1847 Iowa Self (Head)
Robert G. Evans Mary Jackson, Maries, Missouri abt 1847 Missouri Self (Head)
Robert L. Evans Jennie Jersey City, Hudson, New Jersey abt 1847 New York Self (Head)

So a quick comparison brought the list down to 13 candidates. No guarantee that the Robert I am looking for is on this list but its a start.

Robert Evans, Union, Porter, Indiana abt 1844 Ohio
Robert Evans, Fair Haven, Rutland, Vermont abt 1844 Wales 
Robert Evans, New York Ward 8 District 10 (2nd Enum), New York, New York abt 1844 Ireland 
Robert Evans, Israel, Preble, Ohio abt 1844 Ohio 
Robert S Evans, Hempstead, Queens, New York abt 1845 New York 
Robert Evans, Lincoln, New Hanover, North Carolina abt 1845 North Carolina 
Robert Evans, Allegheny Ward 3, Allegheny, Pennsylvania abt 1845 Pennsylvania 
Robert M Evans, Centre, Union, Indiana abt 1846 Ohio Male
Robert H Evans, Marion, Hamilton, Iowa abt 1846 Indiana 
Robert Evans, Lyons, Ionia, Michigan abt 1846 Ireland 
Robert Evans, Washington, Osage, Missouri abt 1846 Missouri 
Robert Evans, Rockfish, Cumberland, North Carolina abt 1846 North Carolina 
Robert Evans, Portsmouth Ward 1, Scioto, Ohio abt 1846 Wales

If you are interested in looking at more Coffin Plates I have about 500 more on my Ancestorsatrest website.

Monastic cemetery find “unique”, say archaeologists

The discovery of the bodies of 15th century monks has been described as “unprecedented” by archaeologists. The monastic cemetery was uncovered earlier this week by contractors undertaking roadworks in St Andrews, Fife. Experts working on the site have been excited by the find, which they say helps pinpoint the location of a friary lost during the Reformation. They say the remains are those of Franciscan monks who once lived in the area, and have described the find as “unique” due to its town centre location.
