How can Cuono Esposito, the husband of Lucia Bianco and son of Pascale Esposito and Rosa di Bouno, die in 1849, and then in 1856 Cuono Esposito, the widower of Lucia di Bianco and son of Pascale and Rosa di Buono, marry Angelarosa Castaldo?

Timelines & details — If Asa Spencer moved to Campton in 1770, why would you assume his children born before then were born in Campton? The birth records, created on 27 December 1905, list the birthplace of the children born after 1770 as Campton, but leave it blank for those born before. #genealogy

Private Asa Spencer, of the 3rd NH Reg, probably did not die in Saratoga, New York, on 7 March 1778. Following the facts instead of what others have written led to the truth. valleyforgemusterroll.org/soldier-deta... #genealogy

I like to randomly write about people buried in the Woodlawn Cemetery, Nashua, New Hampshire, and so far, they have always been a relative according to FamilySearch. However, FamilySearch thinks I’m related to pretty much everyone. yourfamilyquest.substack.com/t/woodlawn-c... #genealogy

I recommend genstackcoterie.substack.com I’m working on my April Substack post. I thought of two ideas to add social history to my April post. GenStack Coterie introduced me to Notion, so I put them there, and now I don’t have to think about it until Monday.

The Shelburne, Chitenden, Vermont, Index to Vital Records is made up of a bunch of index cards. Among them is a Certificate of Birth for my relative. I would have missed out if I had just used the transcript - she is Jeannete May on the certificate and Mary Gennett on the index card. #genealogy
