Challenges in Record Dating

There are several different date sets available for some kings. This difference is due to the use of different methods for calculating a year in the ancient world. Just as there is an Islamic Calendar that is in active use today alongside Julian and Gregorian calendars. The ancient poeples of the Old and New worlds had there varying methods of calculating a year. The book of Enoch shows that the ancient Thinite and Aryan peoples calculated their years as 6 months with alternate years of light and dark. This is harmonious with the Parthian Greeks who according to the Elusian mysteries calculated a year as a half year of dark followed by a half year of light. Thus while a king may be said to be 250 years old by Aryan tradition, according to the Greeks he would have been 125.

I will post more about ancient calendar systems here as I can.

James Avery

I was following back my Avery relatives, and when I got to my 9x-great-grandfather James, I saw that, with your contribution, he was already in the system, to my suprise. If you are Living Magee (Magee, ?), then I guess that makes us 10th cousins! And just to let you know, I was able to go a couple generations further to his grandfather, Christopher Avery (Avere) (Avery, b. 1550 d. 1613). crabGoblin 22:05, 14 April 2010 (EEST)

That is amazing and totally awesome! and yes... so hello cousin! I welcome you to continue contributing. It will be fun to discover our mutual roots together! Almoustine 00:49, 15 April 2010 (EEST)

Sir Richard de Hoghton

This is incredible! It seems like we are also 23rd cousins, through Sir Richard de Hoghton, MP (Hoghton, d. 1340)! So that makes us related from two different directions or something, since the Averys were on my mother's side (Avery->Davenport->Miller->Harris), while the Hoghton's were on my father's side (Hoghton->Southworth->Southard). This is quite interesting. crabGoblin 06:24, 18 April 2010 (EEST)

Oh just you wait. There are about 13 lines all within 16 generations that haven't been input yet. At some point, you will end up feeling like your own grandparent. :) I noticed that your lines include Jansoon the Pirate. That is awesome. If you do some searching through the Rodovid database you will find some incredible records of privateers from that era and the links to current families. I have been trying to post articles to the Secret History X blog with links to persons in the Rodovid Database. This is my way of advertising the existence of the Rodovid Database. I would like to include some articles about Jansoon and some of the connections you find. Contact me via secrethistoryx.com if you are interested in contributing. Almoustine 16:54, 18 April 2010 (EEST)

I haven't done any actual research at this point (I don't really have time to, given my other responsibilities), so all the connections I have found so far are mainly entries from the Rootsweb resources, and any other writings that I have found online about my ancestors. I just found this 1905 book on some of the Southworth/Southard family in the public domain on Google Books, though it doesn't seem to cover my branch of Southards, from the Thomas that came to New Netherland and married the granddaughter of the aforementioned Barbary pirate. From what I've read, Anthony Jansen had three other daughters, and it is not known where Janszoon's other children ended up (at least one left behind in Haarlem, and probably others in Spain or Morocco). My understanding of Jan and Anthony come from here, here, here, here, and here. crabGoblin 23:06, 18 April 2010 (EEST)

Archambaud de Comborn

Dear Almoistine, firstly tanks for the fact you wroth in french. I've modify this father record (betweenHugh (?, b. about 930 d. about 1010) & Hugh of Rouergue (Rouergue, ?)) of Archambaud.

On the Archambaud record, you say he can come from the Limoges line. I've sow althow this information on another website but I didn't found any document about that have you got that ? Regards --CharlesF 23:23, 12 December 2010 (EET)
see wiki fr what do you think about that (I think it is a misstack), Regards--CharlesF 23:25, 12 December 2010 (EET)
Sorry, I've got it, I found ;-) sorry --CharlesF 23:28, 12 December 2010 (EET)

Sorting out the various Constantines

Julian Constans Caesar ap Constantine III (brother of Constans II [the monk] and Justus) was married to Martina v. Marcus + Ancia

Interesting given the dynastic web of the times and the overall confusion of the various Constantine Emperors (Many who ruled simultaneously). It seems plausable.. I know that the family of Aurelius fits in there somewhere. What are your sources? Almoustine 18:26, 22 August 2010 (EEST)

The British Chronicles, by David Hughes is a good place to start. Duplication occure I believe when names are taken from there roots and transplanted into other languages and dialects ie Cunedda, Constantine as a obvious one. Coel, or is it Choel, is it Hoel or could it be Aramond or Faramond, that is the Quest. Coel Godebog is not the splended or anything else that has it's roots in greatness, but people keep incorrectly associating him having 2 issues including Elena, this is a duplication I believe with more issues to it.

Gwen = Eleias/Elistus/Elydyr/Cadwalidyr/Arthur Vivi-Anna = Taliesin/Anlawdd/Buddic (Lewdoc) Emyr Lydaw.

While I do use this book and recommend it for research and reference for certain lineages; I have found that, like others out there, some of the lineages contain some errors and persons have been conflated and or assigned to an erroneous time period. In short not everything in there is correct. I recommend using the volume along with additional records (preferably historical which unfortunately are still in Latin, Greek or other). There is nothing quite like being able to corraborate a lineage with historical, archaeological, and genetic records. Almoustine 19:37, 24 February 2011 (EET)

Borjigin line

Hello Almoustine, I see you described several female persons out of Borjigin lineage as

Barkhujin Qo'ai (Goa) (of China) (meanwhile Bargujin is a place name in Siberia)
Mong Ulun (of China)
Mong Goljin (of China)

Is there any particular source for the "of China" part and the breaking of first syllables from names? Charles Bawden's 1955 edition of Mongolian chronicle Altan Tobchi does not carry any resemblance to this curious spelling as far as I can remember, neither do any other sources I had read. --Tar-ba-gan 02:57, 16 April 2011 (EEST)

I thank you for helping me making my tree. I saw that you added different persons and comments.

I should like to know the rule about definite article like the English "The".

Concerning Jean Guillaume de Prince 591286 you mention his clan as Prince. Concerning his daughter Catherine Margaret de Prince 590947, I mention her clan name as "de Prince".

Do we have to take away the definite article in the clan name like we take a preposition away?

Of Bourbon, de Bourbon, van Bourbon => Bourbon The Taylor, le Tailleur, de Kleermaker => Taylor or The Taylor?

Thank you for your advice,

Michel Nowé

Hi Michel, We are eliminating the article in order to make it easier to find in the search charts. (Take away de, van, von, of, the). If I am unsure of the clan or family designation I put in in the "Other Surnames" box and leave the clan blank until the surname ascendant is known. Also in the English version of the Rodovid database our clan names aren't always tied to location. In fact it is frequently tied to the symbol that a person's family uses to identify themselves on their clan sheilds and flags, or to identify descent from a particular ancestor.

hello, cousin

I see you added Elinipsico Cornstalk's mother to the tree -- thank you! Minerva Nine 01:53, 4 July 2011 (EEST)

page deletions

Hi Almoustine -- I apologize for the deletion of records yesterday, I didn't realize that Rodovid would let me delete pages that other people were using. I was trying to delete all the pages connected with this account (LVehko) because I have a cyber-stalker who has been obtaining personal and family information about me from stuff I have posted online. Because of this, I don't want to say more here, on this publicly-accessible page. Would you email me at lvehko@gmail.com so that I can ask you about merging this account with one under another name? Thanks -- LVehko 22:23, 13 October 2011 (EEST)

On the english Wikipedia site, users can request a username change for their accounts. Is this possible here? If so, please let me know where to send the request. Thanks -- LVehko 09:42, 14 October 2011 (EEST)
If your stalker knows which entries you can submitted under your old ID and monitors those for changes in ID assignment to a new ID your change will have been ineffective. It is probably better if you create a new account altogether and then work with me to help identify various records. Plus... do not use the "This is Me Checkbox" to identify yourself in the system and refrain from posting given names and dates for persons that are living, you can also decide whether or not you wish to post information for family members born after 1900 who are deceased. The issue is you can't always control what/how much other (cousins) might want to post for their lineages. I try to stay within the guidelines of the Ukrainian legislation for Individual privacy which is no posting of living persons. However rule is regularly broken for Celebrities and Royalty whose genealogy is a matter of public record anyway.Almoustine 19:14, 14 October 2011 (EEST)

Segrave and De Segrave

Dear Madam, I have been working on my family pedigree for almost twenty years. The true name at birth of the earliest member (historically acountable) is HUGH DE SEGRAVE. not Hugh Segrave. It was only in the thirteenth century that the family dropped the "de" and used only Segrave. Whoever opened the clan of "Segrave" in 2010 at Rodovid was inaccurate. I will continue to add to the de Segrave clan, unless you demand that I use the false clan of "Segrave". Please let me know your decision. I have a doctorate in Greek and Latin from Columbia University, a Master's degree in Jursiprudence from Oxford University, and a Dr. Theol. granted by the faculty of the University of Fribourg in Switzerland. Yours respectfully, Rev. DDr Richard Seagraves (New York)

Dear Madam, I have noticed that whoever introduced the clan "Segrave" in the year 2010 was in error. I have been working on the family pedigree for about twenty years. I have a Master's degree in Jurisprudence from Oxford, a Doctorate in Greek and Latin from Columbia University, and a Dr. Theol. granted by the University of Fribourg in Switzerland. The "de" was disused by the family in the thirteenth century. I wish to continue to use the correct clan of "de Segrave" instead of the false "Segrave" unless you order me not to do so. Please adive me!

Respectfully, Rev. DDr. Richard Seagrave (New YOrk)--Gaufredus 01:59, 26 June 2012 (EEST)1900 hours on 25 June 2012

Hello Richard,
Due to the way that Rodovid preserves the clan names searching for ancestors becomes problematic when adding the De, Van, Le and other prefixes to the name. The global administrators decided therefore that the clan names would not include these prefixes.

Parents

Please respect the Rodovid rules:
4.3. Controversy or uncertainty about a family link
4.3.1. If parents are controversial do not add any parents "as parents". Just add all controversial info in notes.
4.3.7. The only exception of the rules 4.3 can be mythological persons, which do not have any relationship with historical persons and should be explicitly included in the categories "Mythology" or "XXXXX mythology"

  1. You can unblock CharlesF here :
    • en:Special:Ipblocklist
  2. Could you please help me to find exact translation of "make believe people" in french?
Well... I don't put "make believe people" (aka "fictional people) in the database. I do however include people that some consider legendary and possibly mythological (such as Adam and Eve) ... if I find some sort of corroborating evidence the indicates that they might have been real ...I would like to suggest that we maintain separate lineages for Biblical lineage, Islamic Tradition, DFA. I have some ideas that perhaps there is a link that will allow the user to filter on a lineage and see the lineage as it is presented through the filter of their choice (The user looks at a record that says it has more than one lineage available, biblical, historical, adoptive and selects which one they want to see. The lineage will then be filtered according to that criteria) Almoustine 16:37, 12 July 2015 (EEST)
Anyway, there is a big desease in Rodovid.EN. In last counting of Rodovid (january 2014), we discovered that Rodovid.FR has much more records than Rodovid.EN. This is a complete anomaly (regarding to numbers of french speaking or english speaking peoples around the world). Obviously, you're killing Rodovid.EN, and then all localizations of Rodovid. You do have to find a way to work with other people. Let's talk about that, and when we'll find a gentlewoman and gentlemen agreement, I can assure you that I will help you with all my knowledge.
--Christophe Tesson - talk. 09:35, 12 July 2015 (EEST)
It didn't start out that way. In the beginning I was pulling in records from other language DBs and translating them. Then some persons in other language DBs got angry and started to disconnect the English records from the lineages and then delete the isolated English DB records. I have always been committed to working with other people, but found my work being targeted by people who are intent on disrupting my effort so you can hardly lay the blame on me for the killing the English Version of Rodovid. But if you will do what you say you want (working together) then I think we both have a lot to contribute. But you do need to be willing to have an open mind and not simply dismiss something that contradicts what you think you know and I will do the same. Almoustine 16:37, 12 July 2015 (EEST)

Be rigorous please

Dear Almoustine

We are not in a primary school courtyard. "It's not my fault, it's because of him!" In french, I say to my five years old son : "gnia gnia gnia" (nia nia nia, I guess you understand these coloquial words)

So:

  1. I just checked your 14 last edits in Rodovid. 13 were without source, and without "Need sources" template. Don't you think you give a bad look to Rodovid, working this way?
  2. I've checked Chlodio (Merovingian, ?) in different languages. Results:
    1. spanish = mythological
    2. nederlands = mythological
    3. french = guess what?
    4. english = ah uh…

So please, please, stop working in your own corner, it's unbearable to other users, please!

Let's make a deal about Clodion :

It seems that Grégoire de Tours is the only contemporary source. Do you agree?

Can you agree with me, that sources can be "contradictoires"?

You use Johannes Bertels as a source to give parents or children to Clodion (I sincerly don't understand, your records are too bad). Clearly, Johannes Bertels writes what he wants in 16th century.

So let's do something together : a complete transcription of Johannes Bertels' book in Rodovid, for merovengiens, in a particular catégory. So then there will be:

  • Clodion (according to Johannes Bertels)
  • Clodion (according to Grégoire de Tours)

Let's write links between these two records to explain work in progress.

With any other method your work is useless. For instance : I begin with french republican datas, then I go through religious datas of 17th an 18th centuries, with some hypothesis, then I jump into a noble tree, to the midle age. Then I do some onomastics, and jump to a "DFA gateway". Yeepee, I am the grand-son of Jupiter, the cousin of Mao Zedong and Theodore Roosevelt. Ah! I feel important. Seriously…

It seems that you can read latin. I can make usefull source templates, taging records in pertinent categories. So let's work together.

This way :

  1. You can explain to us what you read (so then thank you)
  2. You avoid Controversial discussions, without any interest
  3. You explain to us what was important in 16th century historians' head. This is interesting, even for me.

And then we cut unusable links through 40, 50, 90 generations. Even Rodovid server cannot read this.

What da ya think about this idea? --Christophe Tesson - talk. 17:24, 12 July 2015 (EEST)

Historia Luxemburgensis

OK, no response… It's really sad…

[about Historia Luxemburgensis and Chlodio (Merovingian, ?)]

This book has been written in 1560 !

Typically a controversial source !

Foundation for Medieval Genealogy does not give any parents to Clodius.

Imho, any ascendance to Clodius should be written as a hypothesis, not as links. --Christophe Tesson - talk. 11:06, 12 July 2015 (EEST)

When was the bible written. Based on your argument we shouldn't use that either but we do... besides, a book written far closer to the source is more likely to be insightful than one written long after the event. I am not going to dismiss anything based on when it was written. Otherwise we can't use anything. Why burn down the library because the books are old. You asked for a source and here it is. I say it stands otherwise... (let's be fair and say that all of this is pointless) Almoustine 17:21, 12 July 2015 (EEST)
It is certainly not pointless…
Let's be fair and let's find common rules…
Seriously, why are you always talking about bible? Is Clodion cited in Bible?
Please, Almoustine, let's work together, let's write together the "Category:Merovengiens according to Historia Luxemburgensis" and lets test common rules!

To make it clear

Almoustine, To make it clear between us ! regarding you controversial work in Rodovid and by the fact there are one one DB for all language; all you modification in records have a direct incidence in every pages and languages. As French Sysop and regarding the infringement you do on the DB (and in consequences in RD.fr) , I will (as other) personally check all your new contributions and apply strictly the rules starting now. I do not whant a new debate about your work: that have been made many times in the past to make conciliation between you and the rules without any success !

  • I you are not agree with the rules, please ask for change !
Rules are maid for everyone to work and contribute in harmony without conflicts ! the fact you do not follow the rules maid many conflicts, so Rules are made for everybody ! you are not above !
  • If you do not want to follow the rules and continue to adding "Non-proven" work I advice you to stop contributing at RD and find another genealogical website (as geni ) looking less strict or more flexible with the history or internal rules.
  • For information Baya is making a new software of Rodovid, making able to create hypothesis records or classification regarding the quality of the sources (as Fiction, Theory, Hypothesis, .. , sourced). It should be operational in September.
So; Starting September French Sysop will clean up your work to rank them as they are : Theory/Hypothesis (we allready begin to inventory your work), if you add pertinent sources it will be better rank (as birth sources, pertinent contemporary book, etc ... ), but make it sure we will continue to check your work for a long time and apply for rules.
If you are agree with this development and to rank your work as "Theory/Hypothesis" when you do not have sources as birth sources, pertinent contemporary book, (etc ..) and follow the rules; we may can cohabit on this website, if not; It will continue as I've described above because I will continue to applying for rules ! --Charles 14:58, 11 August 2015 (EEST)

  • Dascylus ? (of Lydia) (Israel-Matrites, ?) -> where did you see he was the father of Maudaces ? (of Medea) & Mordekai ? (Marduk-bel-shunu) & Phraortes ? and did you notice that; his 2 son had child together, can you corect the sex or the link ?
  • Elissa Dido ? (of Carthage) (?, ?) -> can you source the fact she his the daughter of the parents you've put in RD and the same for her child ?
  • Why you give to these the name of "Israel-Matrites" : they are took to be Assyrian or Phoenicien ?

Source

Dear Almoustine, As I see you continue to contribute, so it is meaning that (contrary as you said many time) that you do not want to collaborate and to respect rules ! So as soon as it will be possible for me, I will make a clean by my self and maybe stoping asking you to correct and to source; it seems unuseful !

--Charles 16:40, 12 August 2015 (EEST)

"Throw the baby out with the bath water"

Hello dear Almoustache

You wrote that : throw the baby out with the bath water.

No problem: because the baby was a troll, the bath water is poisoned.

How can you be so mythomaniac? This is really a complete mystery to me.

Please, stop trolling, stop writting false sources which have no link with the person you're talking about (Bello de Carcassonne - (Count of Carcassonne) (Bellonid, b. calculated 755 d. before 810)).

We disagree, so then how can we work together? (Because we have to do that) I've made several proposal, it's your turn! --Christophe Tesson - talk. 18:44, 6 September 2015 (EEST)

Come on Christophe ! don't be so idealistic ! She will not give response to your offer, like to all you've done in the past ! She just use Rodovid to troll or to explain mythomaniac theory, she don't care about genealogy, she just whant to fill higher in social gatherings ! I can not wait the new engine to make the sort of all this peace of troll !!! because I will do the sort !!! and it will be fierce for her records !!!
The most funny is that she claims to have discovered many linage, where hystorians or scientists do not arrive, however they worked on this point since a long time. She whants to theach to the world how she is intelligent (or mythomaniac) --Charles 22:07, 6 September 2015 (EEST)
Look ! she don't do what she said; she said "please, warn me before modificate my records " (as if it was her property), then I've warn her many times and wait her feed-back, she never answers ! then she says she will stop contributing in Rodovid, ... but she's still here ! --Charles 10:36, 7 September 2015 (EEST)

Wow, not so bad !

Dear Almoustine !

I've found one two of your records that seems sourced, with no contradiction whith its source !

Congratulations !

Huh, no, sorry. As you said : "Wikipedia is not the ultimate source". --Christophe Tesson - talk. 15:44, 7 September 2015 (EEST)

Place names

Hi,

Did you ever wonder why "Westmorland" is not the same thing than "Westmoreland"? Please, just write "Place name" in "place fields" of your records.

e.g. "King of Balouchistan" is not a place name, but a title. Thank you. --Christophe Tesson - talk. 14:16, 13 September 2015 (EEST)


How about if you are checking records and notice that there is a simply typo or something that someone, anyone, missed, you could kindly correct it. That is what a good teammate would do *wink*. In the meantime thank you for letting me know that you caught it and I will make a closer effort to avoid the error in the future *smile* Almoustine 21:14, 13 September 2015 (EEST)


Dear almoustine

You're so boring. Could you please learn how to:

  1. use your computer
  2. use rodovid (which is a complete software)
  3. notice that other users are not your servants (so they possibly don't have to correct your lack of knowledge)
  4. notice that nobody needs to bore your opinions : we are in a wiki, not in a blog.
  5. notice that among 81 obvious timeline errors in RD.EN (at this time) you are the author of 30 of it? (40%) How could you think you look interesting? Your "20 years searching" are proving that sperm congelation was inveted in XVIIth century?

You're tyring me. This is the ultimate problem: you're using Rodovid as a blog. If you want I will buy you a license of Heredis: write your own fantasy about any genealogy you want, and publish it in"Heritage books". This is a "vanity publisher", they will agree. And stop using their "books" as a source in Rodovid. --Christophe Tesson - talk. 19:49, 17 October 2015 (EEST)

Place names (again :-)

Hello Almoustine

I'm still studying disembiguation of english place names.

I still do have question about this work. Could you please read this post and give your opinion?

Thanks a lot! --Christophe Tesson - talk. 12:59, 22 October 2015 (EEST)

Hello Tesson Thank you for asking. I would be happy to. I will leave my comments on the discussion tab for that page, so that the rules can stay uncluttered by edits and only reflect official statements as the policy is finalized. Almoustine 18:12, 23 October 2015 (EEST)

Place names (again and again)

Dear Pamela

Happy new year

Instead of hiding your place name errors under the carpet, by erasing warning we write in your records, you should try to correct these errors. If you can't do this, do nothing!

I guess it's a bit complex for you, but the warning template drops the bad record in a special category (Category:Place name errors), so then other users can check each record and correct false entrance when they have the knowledge you don't have.

Remember you're writing in a wiki, not in a blog.

Uh please, could you create your blog? --Christophe Tesson - talk. 18:49, 30 December 2015 (EET)

Actually its not that difficult... I have looked at your warnings but I haven't really found many place name errors... instead I find places that are perfectly correct that are mocked at and labeled in error but which I am able to validate with a simple google search. Also... please beware that you are working right now in the English DB. We spell things the English way here. So of course French place names are Anglicised. What I am doing is googling the location and placing the link to the location in sources since you obviously unable to locate it doing a search in French Google (while attempting to correct English records). Why should I create a blog when you have done such a marvelous job at attempting to malign me already. Almoustine 05:21, 31 December 2015 (EET)

Yes OK, I understand, you make a joke for the new year.
Seriously, I guess than less than 30% of your place names are meaningfull.
And your spell is not particulary english. I've checked it (22,000 red links today, I've checked 17,000 red links, almost 50% of place names, and let's say 40% were written by you. almost 3400 place names from you. Most of them are misspelled. Or you consider that Wikipedia.en does not write the English way.
I notice that you have done nothing to write a new rule for place names.
As usual your contributions are poisonning Rodovid, your place names don't follow any policy. Please Create your blog somewhere else!
And noway, I won't learn to be polite, because your work is extremly violent for other users, it's not just a question of politeness. Happy new year. --Christophe Tesson - talk. 22:53, 2 January 2016 (EET)

About Josephte Foraz

About Josephte Foraz (Foreest) (Foraz, b. calculated 1814)

I'm terribly sorry but civil records of Douvaine are online. These are not transcripts, but original scanned pages. Who sold you such a fake? ;-) There's no "Forest" (seems strange in french, but possible) "Forex" (seems really really strange in french) or "Foreest" (clearly impossible in french) in these records. See: archives de haute savoie search in Douvaine.

Name form change due to Dutch Transliteration... Almoustine 19:39, 31 December 2015 (EET)
Missed. It's Foraz (Typically savoyard, this possibly explain confusion with Forex, "Z" is old fashioned and looks like "X"). Isn't it simpler with sources ?
And well done: this record is not online. So you have (sometimes) good sources. Not so bad !
Josephte is a rare first name in french, but it is attested (see : Geneanet for instance). It was given mostly in 1800's.
Well done Pamela! Christophe Tesson - talk. 12:42, 12 January 2016 (EET)

Fougères - Bresse

Dear Pamella

Could you please stop writing nonsenses?

It would be kind of you, for other users. (Did you noticed that there are other users of Rodovid??)

So you wrote on this record: Marie ? (Saint-Mars, Coëffier) (?, b. 1626 d. 18 September 1708), that "Chateau Fougere" was in "Bresse". You just ad a source about "Chateau fougere". Good, this is an english speaking source.

Oh, sorry, it's not a source about "Chateau Fougere", it's a source about "Château de Fougères" (even in a well known english site).

I do know Fougères and its castle: one of my brother lived there. There's only one problem. As you can see here : path from Fougères to Bresse according a well-known american site, there's only 750 km between Fougères and Bresse. (I know that, I'm living near Lyon, 80km of Bresse.

As usual in your record, no source, just your self-persuasion, and finaly a complete nonsense. As usual.

But, oh! I understand! In secret Warner DFA sources, Fougères is in Bresse?

Friendly yours. --Christophe Tesson - talk. 14:42, 8 February 2016 (EET)

PS: your slaves certainly won't ad any correction to your lack of knowledge.
