Genealogy: Joseph Still Norman (1895-1961)

in #genealogy15 days ago (edited)

I'm experimenting with posting some random bits of my genealogy research here with the goal of eventually creating a linked family tree on Hive. You can see the index here.

Subject: Joseph Still Norman (1895-1961)

Closest relationship to me: Fifth cousin three times removed

Family tree management software: GenoPro

Family tree reporting software: Gramps

Other software used: The Next Generation of Genealogy Sitebuilding (TNG), GedSite (evaluating for now)

Updates: Found birth records, death certificate, census records, and military service info.

The chart at the top is an ancestry chart out to four generations. The chart at the bottom is the same chart as generated by TNG. The index of all individuals I have posted so far can be found here.

Some of the notes below refer to Joseph's ancestor (great-great-great grandfather) Joseph C. Norman.
