SUMMARY:Use of Death and Funeral Home Records for Genealogical Research
DESCRIPTION:Kyle Adkins\n\n\n\nFuneral home records and state death records are an important genealogical resource. Not only can they provide major subject information\, but often we may find tidbits of data that will help “fill in the blanks”. While documents such as state death certificates may have changed over the years\, records kept by a funeral home or cemetery have remained much the same. This presentation will show how to access those records\, and how they can benefit your genealogical research. \n\n\n\nSpeaker: Kyle Adkins \n\n\n\nKyle Adkins\, licensed as a funeral director in Florida\, is a native and resident of Folkston\, Georgia. Kyle is a 1980 graduate of Georgia Southern College and a 1991 graduate of Gupton-Jones College of Mortuary Science and as a third generation funeral director\, he has spent much of his life in funeral service. He has served families at Oxley-Heard since 2015

SUMMARY:Membership Committee Meeting Mar 2023
DESCRIPTION:At the Board meeting last week\, the distribution of the quarterlies was discussed a bit – how to best handle getting the publication to those folks who really want to receive it without printing a bunch of copies that will never be picked up.  There were some suggestions\, starting with sending an email to those current members with 3-4 copies sitting in their folders.  The more I thought about it\, I decided it would be a good opportunity to ask a few other questions around membership benefits\, meeting schedule\, program topics\, etc. (in addition to the quarterly question).  I’m thinking we should develop a short survey covering these items – the agenda for our next Membership Committee Meeting!

SUMMARY:How to Convert Old Photographs\, Slides\, & Videos into Digital Formats
DESCRIPTION:Cherished memories deserve special care and preserving them for future generations is essential. We invite you to join us on April 18th\, 2023\, at 7:00 PM in the Fernandina Branch Library’s community room for an informative session on converting photographs\, slides\, and videos into digital formats that can be treasured for a lifetime. \n\n\n\nWhether you’re looking to undertake the conversion process yourself or seeking reputable companies for assistance\, understanding the basics of format and resolution is crucial. Our discussion will cover essential equipment for do-it-yourself enthusiasts\, outsourcing options\, and anticipated costs. \n\n\n\nIt is widely recommended to maintain three copies of each digital file as a safeguard against unforeseen events such as fires\, floods\, thefts\, or computer crashes. As such\, we will explore the pros and cons of various storage solutions\, including personal computers\, USB flash drives\, external backup devices\, and cloud storage services. \n\n\n\nSpeaker: Jo Lichten \n\n\n\nDr. Jo\n\n\n\nJo loves life! In her professional life\, Dr Jo is a PhD nutritionist and wellness expert who speaks at company meetings and national conferences\, helping professionals keep their energy and productivity up through small shifts in the way they eat\, sleep\, move\, and think. She spends her spare time traveling with her husband\, practicing yoga on the beach\, working on quilts\, playing with her young grandkids\, and preserving all those memories. She’s kept photo albums for 50 years. While originally using peel-and-stick albums\, about 15 years ago she converted to stunning digital-to-print albums. When Jo’s dad passed\, she and her brother-in-law worked to digitally preserve and organize the 14\,000+ photos and slides he left behind – and then shared them with each of her eight siblings.

SUMMARY:The Catholic Church Going West
DESCRIPTION:Bob Frey\n\n\n\nAfter the Revolutionary War\, farmland was becoming scarce for the large Catholic families of Southern Maryland. When they heard the stories of the richness of Kentucky\, the first area west of the mountains that opened up to mass migration\, many of these families decided to move there. \n\n\n\nJoin us to listen to this month’s speaker\, Bob Frey\, who will tell us how he traced his ancestry back to the Catholics who established colonial Maryland\, then later migrated to Kentucky and beyond. His ancestors settled the historic\, western Kentucky Catholic settlement of Fancy Farm and helped build the St Jerome Church. Frey will discuss his ancestors’ arrival in Maryland from England in the 17th century and subsequent migration to Kentucky in the late 18th and early 19th centuries.

SUMMARY:The "Rosin" Fall of Turpentine in Nassau County
DESCRIPTION:Turpentine was a ubiquitous ingredient in American household products including paints\, medicines\, soaps\, lamp oil\, ink\, lubricants\, hair spray\, and cosmetics\, just to name a few. Pine trees would be tapped for sap and resin which was used in the production of making turpentine. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin us to listen to John Hendricks\, Director of the West Nassau Historical Society\, who will explore the economic and social impact the turpentine industry had on the development of Nassau County. He will take you on a remarkable hundred-year-long journey from the first turpentine still founded in the late 1850s through its heyday at the turn of the 19th century to its waning years in the 1940s and 1950s.

SUMMARY:History of Agriculture in Nassau County
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a fascinating presentation on how the region’s agricultural sector persisted\, despite serious challenges\, and continued to contribute significantly to the county’s economy by the late 20th century. \n\n\n\nCommercial agriculture in Nassau County dates back to the 18th century when a highway was constructed from the northern colonies to St. Augustine\, leading to the establishment of plantation systems. After the Revolutionary War\, Nassau County was transferred back to the Spanish\, who re-established plantations\, initiating the first land boom. In the 19th century\, the area saw battles between Americans and Seminoles\, leading to the relocation of the Town Seat of Government from Fernandina to Sand Hill. The 20th century witnessed the boom of the timber and Long Leaf Pine industry\, with significant developments in agriculture\, marked by the introduction of County Agricultural Agents in 1915 and the growth of the truck farming industry in South Florida in the 1920s. The Great Depression and subsequent decades brought challenges\, but the region’s agriculture persisted\, contributing significantly to the county’s economy by the late 20th century. \n\n\n\nDavid Hebert\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker David Hebert is an Extension Agent I in Nassau County\, FL. This presentation is based on his research of a collection of historical documents.
