The
Tichenor Genealogical Collection While I
do not plan to publish again and I am no longer actively engaged in
genealogical research, I do maintain the Tichenor genealogical collection.
It contains, of course, the material collected over a period of fourteen
years for Tichenor Families in America. It also contains material
sent to me since the book was published in 1988. As people who were
not on my mailing list have discovered the book, some have sent their
family data to me. Some of this makes a known addition to the book while
some does not. For the later there is always the possibility that the
connection will some day be found. The purpose
of maintaining the collection is to make it available to the next person
who takes on the job of revising and publishing the Tichenor genealogy.
Perhaps someone in the next generation or so will do it. If so, my heirs
will make the collection available to him/her. You May
submit you family data to the collection, either as an addition to Tichenor
Families in America, or a family line whose connection is not known.
If the former, please indicate the page to which it is an addition.
Please send it typed by US mail to Harold A. Tichenor, Rt. 4, Box 1016,
Napton, MO 65340 or email it to hitch@cdsinet.net
A good
deal of additional research will be required for a revision. I did not
collect everything available. I simply had to stop research if I were
ever going to get the book published. The Internet makes some research
easier than in the past, but for some items there will be no substitute
for traveling to get it or hiring professional researchers. I have
begun, but do not know if I can finish, putting my card files of primary
data (wills, estates, marriages, census, etc.) in a searchable computer
file. It will have cross-indexing that the card file does not. The census
records, for example, are indexed only under the head of household.
In the computer file all names will be indexed, a considerable advantages.
Much of this is in my book Tichenor Families in America, but
enough of is not that it is still worthwhile source for research. This
is about one fourth accomplished at this time. I hope, but do not promise,
to finish it. For information on how to use Tichenor Families in America, click here. For a list of libraries in which Tichenor Families in America can be found, click here. For a brief summary of the Tichenor family, click here. For information on how to order your copy click here. |
