HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
November 4, the first Thanksgiving was held. I am proud to say and can source that three of my LINTON ancestors where probably there in Jamestown for it. They were Mary & Moses LINTON (1562-1622) my tenth great-grandparents, their children, Anthony Linton (1614-1695) and William LINTON (1618-1680) Also Moses’ brother William LINTON (1560-1634). This is the 392nd Anniversary of Thanksgiving. November 4, 1619 a thanksgiving feast was first held in the Jamestown Virginia Colony. The initial thanksgiving observance in Virginia in 1619 was prompted by the colonists' leaders on the anniversary of the settlement. The November 1621, Plymouth Massachusetts Colony feast and thanksgiving was prompted by a good harvest that year.

New LINTON Profiles
_____________________
Family Trees
No new family trees this Issue. We did update the LINTON Family Tree and realized that back in 2007 we did not link page two to anything. So we are now in the process of putting page two on page one and adding profiles to all 32 generations on one tree. Hoping to get the STONESTREET, KOCHER, CROASDALE, HIRST and HAYHURST surname branches on the site soon.

Past LINTON Articles
With all the new visitors to the site and new Members to the Linton Research Fund Inc., we are trying to make available as many old articles as possible and requested. Thanks for all the e-mails and blog entrees and guess book signing. REMEMBER all questions should be asked on the BLOG Page and Not on the Guess BOOK Page. The reason for that is, I can’t get into the guess book page unless I Sign it. So some time your questions and inquiries go unanswered for a whole Issue.__________
For all the genealogical researchers that are researching the LINTON or BIRD surnames or any of our aligned surnames, please join the Linton Research Fund Inc., and have your articles published in upcoming issues of the LINTON & BIRD CHRONICLES. Contact Project Director, T_L_Linton@hotmail.com

Quotes
"Junkology" and "Name-gatherers", A genealogy researcher, who is not searching for original genealogical documents and sources and most of their family tree comes from online member trees. "We must educate our new generations, that genealogy research is not a quick and easy task, real work and time are required. No instant gratification can be acquired. When you see and old history book, atlas, or old self published family history book in the flee market or on line, acquire it. Remember that next year or the next publishing the Alamo will not be in the new Texas history books, because it is becoming political incorrect. That is why my presences in research encyclopedias and research books is an ole one not an online one." Terry Louis Linton 2007.
