Jean wrote to announce that she has purchased Drew's new book for the West Hempstead Library in New York. Laura in Connecticut wrote about researching the Smith surname in Ireland. Judy in Ohio wrote to ask about getting help with learning how to use RootsMagic more effectively. The Guys suggested watching the scores of recorded videos at the RootsMagic site. (Visit https://www.rootsmagic.com/ and click the Learn dropdown list. There also are short videos on RootsMagic TV on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/user/RootsMagicTV. D. A. wrote about the print quality of images in the new RootsMagic 9 book. Donna Moughty responded to address Gabriel's Irish research request for suggestions in researching his ancestor James Thomas Donoghue. Donna's thoughtful comments will be helpful to all Irish researchers. Rick in Wisconsin wrote concerning reporting formats that he can use for use in documenting his family's Benedict Arnold, who was not the infamous Benedict Arnold. Tom posed a research conundrum he has encountered in researching his family in the 1910 U.S. Federal census in Cranesville, Erie County, Pennsylvania. He cannot locate the enumeration district (ED) for that place. The Guys spent some time replicating his research and delving into EDs in that area and, using people living in Cranesville in 1920 and locating them at the same residences in 1910, narrowed the ED down to #66. We've asked for specific names and will recheck those as well. Listener suggestions are also very welcome. Don't forget to order Drew's new book, Generation by Generation: A Modern Approach to the Basics of Genealogy, from Genealogical Publishing Company (https://genealogical.com/) or Amazon.com.
