HIS BIOLOGICAL FATHER IS CHARLIE MANSON

There were a lot of news articles on line to pick from but this one from THE SUN, has great photos showing the likeness that confirms that Charlie Manson, the infamous head of the Manson Family and Los Angeles DJ Matthew Roberts are father and son.

I'm posting this, not for the lurid aspect of this breaking news, but because adopted as children, many people feel it is important to find their real parents. It varies from state to state and the laws and contracts at the time of adoption, but through adoption registry sites, at the age of 18 a child can post seeking a parent.

This has to be one of the more rewarding areas of genealogical research for me, but at this point this is my advice to Matthew Roberts. Even when all paperwork and looks are persuasive, get a DNA test that confirms the match!

CZAR PETER

Did you ancestors live under a King, a Czar, a Prince or Princess, or a local Count? Or were they aristocrats and rulers themselves? (Pay attention to the history of the region they came from and learn who was ruling their lives.)
Many towns that were under occupation have changed names several times. For instance, some places in Central and Eastern Europe have names in German, Polish, Russian, and local languages. Likewise, the records you are seeking may be moved from one archive to another. In some European countries, records were kept by the Catholic church for many villages, because the priest may have been the only person who could read and write - and your ancestor need not have been a Catholic to be recorded.

In the United States large counties were split into smaller ones as populations increased. Don't get "county bound" and research paths of migration.

THE PEERAGE ! WOW !

According to this site, Mislaid Cash, Checks, Deposits, Securities, Refunds, and More can be claimed from State and Federal Treasuries. Several years ago I found $700 for a rich guy using various sites and links. Us poor ones didn't find a dime waiting for us. The rich guy didn't get around to paying me. The poor ones did. If you find some money owned you, use it all for archival fees!
