Chapters: Áedán Mac Gabráin, Sophia, Constantina, Yang Liang, Leander of Seville, Peter of Canterbury, Brandub Mac Echach, Venantius Fortunatus, Máel Umai Mac Báetáin, Callinicus. Excerpt: Áedán mac Gabráin (pronounced in Middle Irish ) was a king of Dál Riata from circa 574 until his death, perhaps on 17 April 609. The kingdom of Dál Riata was situated in modern Argyll and Bute , Scotland , and parts of County Antrim , Ireland . Genealogies record that Áedán was a son of Gabrán mac Domangairt .He was a contemporary of Saint Columba , and much that is recorded of his life and career comes from hagiography such as Adomnán of Iona ‘s Life of Saint Columba . Áedán appears as a character in Old Irish and Middle Irish language works of prose and verse , some now lost.The Irish annals record Áedán’s campaigns against his neighbours, in Ireland, and in northern Britain, including expeditions to the Orkney Islands , the Isle of Man , and the east coast of Scotland. As recorded by Bede , Áedán was decisively defeated by Æthelfrith of Bernicia at the Battle of Degsastan . Áedán may have been deposed, or have abdicated, following this defeat.Sources The sources for Áedán’s life include Bede’s Historia ecclesiastica gentis Anglorum ; Irish annals , principally the Annals of Ulster and the Annals of Tigernach ; and Adomnán’s Life of Saint Columba . The Senchus fer n-Alban , a census and genealogy of Dál Riata, purports to record his ancestry and that of his immediate descendants. None of these sources are contemporary. Adomnán’s work was written in the very late 7th century, probably to mark the

Abraham’s Children: Race, Identity, and the DNA of the Chosen People $14.99 Could our sense of who we are really turn on a sliver of DNA? In our multiethnic world, questions of individual identity are becoming increasingly unclear. Now in ABRAHAM’S CHILDREN bestselling author Jon Entine vividly brings to life the profound human implications of the Age of Genetics while illuminating one of today’s most controversial topics: the connection between genetics and who we are, and specifically the question “Who is a Jew?”Entine weaves a fascinating narrative, using breakthroughs in genetic genealogy to reconstruct the Jewish biblical tradition of the chosen people and the hereditary Israelite priestly caste of Cohanim. Synagogues in the mountains of India and China and Catholic churches with a Jewish identity in New Mexico and Colorado provide different patterns of connection within the tangled history of the Jewish diaspora. Legendary accounts of the Hebrew lineage of Ethiopian tribesmen, the building of Africa’s Great Zimbabwe fortress, and even the so-called Lost Tribes are reexamined in light of advanced DNA technology. Entine also reveals the shared ancestry of Israelites and Christians. As people from across the world discover their Israelite roots, their riveting stories unveil exciting new approaches to defining one’s identity. Not least, Entine addresses possible connections between DNA and Jewish intelligence and the controversial notion that Jews are a “race apart.” ABRAHAM’S CHILDREN is a compelling reinterpretation of biblical history and a challenging and exciting illustration of the promise and power of genetic research.

Canine Genealogy Kit $64.95 The Canine Genealogy Kit. This kit analyzes your dog’s DNA and identifies the breeds in its ancestry. It provides scientific confirmation of the physical characteristics, behavioral tendencies, personality traits, and potential health risks your mixed-breed dog has inherited. A professional laboratory tests a cotton swab that you simply rub against the inside of your dog’s cheek and send to the lab in the provided envelope. The laboratory compares the unique sequences in your canine’s genome with DNA markers from a database of thousands of purebred dogs. The DNA test recognizes 63 different breeds (93% of the most common breeds in the U.S.) that can make up your pet’s genetic profile. You will receive a certificate listing your dog’s ancestry and a detailed explanation of each breed’s dominant characteristics that likely have been passed on to your dog. Takes up to three weeks to receive results.

Dig Up Your Family Tree: Trace Your Ancestry And Find Your Family By Means Of Genealogy Research So You Can Learn Your Family History And Get To Know Your Family Background $3.99 In this modern time where independent living isolates many people from family, it is getting to a point where family members are growing apart from one another. Parents, brothers and sisters and other closely-related kin have allowed themselves to go their own separate ways, without much care about keeping in touch and preserving family relationships so that no one knows anymore who family is exactly. That is why, for some family groups, a family tree becomes significant. This is especially so to families who have generational wealth, properties or titles to hand down to future generations. These family groups have a need to know their descendants and so they trace back their ancestry and find family members. For some people, a family tree is one way to discover their true identity for whatever personal reasons they can find. Perhaps there is a need to know family history due to medical purposes or maybe a family background can help secure a legal claim for some intent. Whatever the reasons, genealogy serves a different purpose for many people. Genealogy is an intensive process that can turn into a lifetime activity as it truly involves discovering the history of a particular family by digging up past chronological documents to validate the relationships between people.

Ethnic Nationalism in Korea: Genealogy, Politics, and Legacy $26.95 This book explains the roots, politics, and legacy of Korean ethnic nationalism, which is based on the sense of a shared bloodline and ancestry. Belief in a racially distinct and ethnically homogeneous nation is widely shared on both sides of the Korean peninsula, although some scholars believe it is a myth with little historical basis. Finding both positions problematic and treating identity formation as a social and historical construct that has crucial behavioral consequences, this book examines how such a blood-based notion has become a dominant source of Korean identity, overriding other forms of identity in the modern era. It also looks at how the politics of national identity have played out in various contexts in Korea: semicolonialism, civil war, authoritarian politics, democratization, territorial division, and globalization.

Excerpt: The Genographic Project , launched on April 13, 2005 by the National Geographic Society and IBM , is a multi-year genetic anthropology study that aims to map historical human migration patterns by collecting and analyzing DNA samples from hundreds of thousands of people from around the world. Overview Field researchers at 11 regional centers around the world collect DNA samples from indigenous populations. The project also sells self-testing kits: for US $100 anyone in the world can order a kit with which a mouth scraping (buccal swab ) is obtained, analyzed and the DNA information placed on an Internet accessible database. The genetic markers on mitochondrial DNA (HVR1 ) and Y-chromosomes (12 microsatellite markers and haplogroup -defining SNPs ) are used to trace the participant’s distant ancestry, and each customer is provided with their genetic history. As of April 2010 more than 350,000 people had bought a test kit. The Genographic Project is undertaking widespread consultation with indigenous groups from around the world. Genographic Project public participation kits are processed by Family Tree DNA (FTDNA) using the Arizona Research Labs at the University of Arizona . The project is a privately-funded, not-for-profit collaboration between the National Geographic Society , IBM and the Waitt Family Foundation. Part of the proceeds from the sale of self-testing kits support the Genographic Project’s ongoing DNA collection , but the majority are ploughed into a Legacy Fund to be spent on cultural preservation projects nominated by

Genie Award Winners for Best Performance by a Foreign Actress: Susan Sarandon $9.05 Purchase includes free access to book updates online and a free trial membership in the publisher’s book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: Susan Sarandon (born October 4, 1946) is an American actress. She has worked in films and television since 1969, and won an Academy Award for Best Actress for her performance in the 1995 film Dead Man Walking. She was nominated for the award for four films before that, and has received other recognition for her work. She is also noted for her social and political activism for a variety of liberal causes. Sarandon, the eldest of nine children in a Roman Catholic family, was born as Susan Abigail Tomalin in New York City, the daughter of Leonora Marie (née Criscione) and Phillip Leslie Tomalin, who worked as an advertising executive, television producer, and nightclub singer during the big band era. Sarandon’s father was of English, Irish, and Welsh ancestry, and her Italian American mother’s ancestors emigrated from the regions of Tuscany and Sicily. In 2006, Sarandon and 10 of her relatives (including her then-partner Tim Robbins and her son Miles) traveled to Wales to trace her family’s Welsh genealogy. Their journey was documented by the BBC Wales program, Coming Home: Susan Sarandon. Sarandon grew up in Edison, New Jersey, where she graduated from Edison High School in 1964. She then attended The Catholic University of America from 1964 to 1968, earning a BA in drama, and working with noted drama coach and master teacher, Father Gilbert Hartke. In 1969, Sarandon went to a casting call for the motion-picture Joe with her then husband Chris Sarandon. Although he did not get a part, she was cast in a major role of a disaffected teen who disappears into the seedy underworld (the film was released in 1970). In 1970 and 1971, she appeared on the short-lived soap opera A World Apart, playing Patrice Kahlman. She also appeared in Lady Liberty (1971… More:

Names and History: Peoples. Places amd Things $39.95 How names were acquired, and how they have changed, is a subject of perennial fascination. The history of British names has often been approached by studying their roots in earlier languages, including Anglo-Saxon, Norse, Welsh and Gaelic. In Names and History George Redmonds, one of the leading historians of names, shows how far more needs to be taken into account than just etymology. Archaeology, farming practices, the landscape itself, genealogy, social customs, family networks and many other things are all relevant. By looking at the local meanings of names he has widened the whole field of name studies, providing while doing so a fascinating set of detective stories. Tracing one’s ancestry will never be the same again.

Nazi Ancestral Proof: Genealogy, Racial Science, and the Final Solution $34.95 How could Germans, inhabitants of the most scientifically advanced nation in the world in the early 20th century, have espoused the inherently unscientific racist doctrines put forward by the Nazi leadership? Eric Ehrenreich traces the widespread acceptance of Nazi policies requiring German individuals to prove their Aryan ancestry to the popularity of ideas about eugenics and racial science that were advanced in the late Imperial and Weimar periods by practitioners of genealogy and eugenics. After the enactment of Nazi racial laws in the 1930s, the Reich Genealogical Authority, employing professional genealogists, became the providers and arbiters of the ancestral proof. This is the first detailed study of the operation of the ancestral proof in the Third Reich and the link between Nazi racism and earlier German genealogical practices. The widespread acceptance of this racist ideology by ordinary Germans helped create the conditions for the Final Solution.

Chapters: The Castle in the Forest, an American Dream, the Naked and the Dead, the Executioner’s Song, Harlot’s Ghost, Why Are We in Vietnam?, Barbary Shore, Ancient Evenings, the Deer Park. Source: Wikipedia. Free updates online. Not illustrated. Excerpt: The Castle in the Forest is the last novel by writer Norman Mailer, published in the year of his death, 2007. It is the story of Adolf Hitler’s childhood as seen through the eyes of Dieter, a demon sent to put him on his destructive path. The novel explores the idea that Hitler had no Jewish heritage but was the product of incest. It forms a thematic contrast with the writer’s immediately previous novel The Gospel According to the Son (1999), which deals with the early life of Jesus. It received a good deal of praise, such as a glowing review from Lee Siegel of The New York Times Book Review, and was the New York Times Bestseller for 2007. The novel is divided into 14 books, organized initially into a summary of the findings of the SS officer tasked with investigating Hitler’s ancestry, and developing into a chart of Hitler’s young life. It begins with a portrait of his father and mother, followed by a book on the narrator, and then follows Hitler’s life before ending with an epilogue entitled the Castle in the Forest where the narrator is interviewed by a US Army psychiatrist at the end of the war. The 14 books are as follows: The Castle in the Forest tells the story of the young life of Adolf Hitler, his origins and his immediate family tree, through the eyes of what at first is portrayed as a young SS officer researching Hitler’s genealogy at the behest of Heinrich Himmler, who opens the novel speaking to SS officers about the importance of strong traits that result through incest. The SS Officer, who initially instructs the reader

Of Irish Descent: Origin Stories, Genealogy, and the Politics of Belonging $29.95 What does it mean to be of Irish descent? What does Irish descent stand for in Ireland? In Northern Ireland? In the United States? How are the categories of “native” and “settler” and accounts of ethnic origin being refigured through popular genealogy and population genetics?Of Irish Descent addresses these questions by exploring the contemporary significance of ideas of ancestral roots, origins, and connections. Moving from the intimacy of family stories and reunions to disputed state policies on noble titles and new scientific accounts and applications of genetic research, Nash traces the place of ancestry in these interconnected geographies of identity-familial, ethnic, national, and diasporic. Underlying these different practices and narratives are potent and profoundly political questions: “Who counts as Irish?,” “Who belongs in Ireland?” and “To whom does Ireland belong?”Examining tensions between ideas of plurality and commonality, difference and connection that run through the culture and science of ancestral origins, Of Irish Descent is an original and timely exploration of new configurations of nation and diaspora as communities of shared descent.

Out from Hiding: Evidences of Sephardic Roots among Latinos $9.99 Dr. Dell Sanchez began his journey into the lineage of his Latino family when it surfaced from his research of Jewish survivors of the Spanish and Portuguese Inquisitions of the 15th – 17th Centuries. The more Sanchez dug into historical record, the more he began to suspect his own Sephardic Jewish roots. The DNA of his mother and father served to prove his suspicions. Presented as a personal yet factual narrative, Out from Hiding includes six crucial topics that prove the existence of Sephardic Jewish roots among Latinos: Historical and genealogical records DNA evidence corroborating Sephardic Jewish roots among Latinos Onomastics dealing with the Sephardic origin of surnames Material evidence found within the Sephardic Latino community Oral histories disclosing family secrets of thirteen Sephardic Latinos Sanchez’s professional observations and prognostications of the Sephardic Latinos’ future Based on continued research, it has been estimated that there are tens of thousands of Hispanic/Latinos with Sephardic Jewish ancestry in America. The majority of these are not aware of their hidden Jewish roots, aren’t aware of their hidden backgrounds. Out from Hiding is his journey through history, family genealogy, and personal faith. Perhaps it may be your journey, as well.

Rule of 1/1000th Common Ancestry $49.99 Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Rule of 1/1000 common ancestry is a criterion used to create meaningful family groupings. It was first adopted by Lawrence Kestenbaum to determine which individuals should be included with specific political families on the Political Graveyard website. The rule can be made applicable to other genealogy projects. For lineal ancestors, this can be approximated by 10th degree consanguinity. The reason this is approximate, and not exact, is that common ancestry is halved every time the degree of consanguinity is increased by one. For example the degree of consanguinity of a parent is one. This means that a parent provides 1/2^1 or 1/2 of a persons ancestry (the other parent provides the other half). A 7th great grandparent has a 9th degree consanguinity, and therefore providing 1/2^9 or 1/512 common ancestry. An 8th great grandparent provides 1/1024 common ancestry which is as close as one can come to 1/1000th, and so this is the cutoff used.

Settlers By The Long Grey Trail $52.5 Many of the early Valley of Virginia settlers resided on or near the Long Grey Trail, and the author brings the full weight of his acumen to bear on the Valley settlements, more especially on that part of Augusta County later formed into Rockingham. There was perhaps no family more intimately associated with the early history of Rockingham County than the Harrisons and their connections, the county seat itself being named for one of them. Appropriately, then, this work sets forth a detailed genealogy of the Harrisons of Augusta and their Harrison cousins throughout Virginia and in large parts of the United States and Britain. The author also traces the ancestry of about 50 other families who settled in this area, as well as provides articles on colonial and Indian wars and the Revolution, documentary accounts of political upheaval and transition, analyses of Virginia Valley migrations, including German, Scotch-Irish, and Pennsylvanian migrations, and sketches of early churches, militia, and courts.
