Diverse Genes

  Going through Census Records, I found out that my patrilineal surname Scott was changed from Daigre. My ancestors changed their last name between 1900 and 1910 after they relocated to Thibodaux, Lafourche Parish.  Great Grandpa Ivory Scott had put down Assumption Parish as his birthplace on both his World War 1 and World War 2 draft registration cards.  Learning about Ivory Scott being the father of my paternal grandfather Nolan Scott https://diversegenes.blogspot.com/2023/02/learning-about-my-scott-family-of.html Great Grandpa Ivory Scott's father was William Daigre who was born in 1865 in Louisiana. According to the 1870 and 1880 Census Records,  he lived in Baton Rouge, East Baton Rouge Parish. 1870 Census record shows 2nd Great Grandpa William with his mother Hannah Daigre and his Daigre siblings in a household headed by James Hawkins. 2nd Great Grandpa William's father wasn't even in the household in 1880 nor 1870.   In 1880 Census, Hannah was head o...

 I think Simon Batiste is related to my paternal grandfather's father Ivory Scott.  I am trying to find out who were my Great Grandpa's parents.    1920 US Census  Simon Batiste living on Bayou Lafourche Rd at Precinct 3 in District 49 in Lafourche Parish like Great Grandpa Ivory  he has son named Nolan which is same name as my paternal grandfather 1940 US Census Simon Batiste living at 418 East Seventh St in Thibodoux  Great Grandpa Ivory living at 416 East Seventh St  in Thibodaux according to 1930 Census 1950 US Census Simon Batiste was living at 714 St Charles St in Thibodaux  Great Grandpa Ivory was living at 1318 St. Charles St. in Thibodaux

  I have been exploring the connection between my paternal grandfather Nolan Scott's father Ivory Scott and Harry Ordogne. Great Grandpa Ivory listed Harry Ordoyne (Ordogne) as the person who will knows his address on his World War 2 Draft Registration card.  His address at the time was 1318 St. Charles St in Thibodaux, Louisiana. 1940 Census shows the Scott family without Great Grandpa Ivory were living at 517 East Twelfth Street in Thibodaux, Louisiana.    Considering this Census Record and World War 2 Draft Registration Card, Great Grandpa Ivory and his wife Dicey were clearly going through a separation. 1950 Census shows Great Grandpa Ivory living with his family at the same address 1318 St. Charles St in Thibodaux, Louisiana listed on his World War 2 Draft Registration Card. 1940 Census shows Harry Ordogne living at 1307 St. Charles Street in Thibodeaux, Lafourche Parish.    Harry's World War 2 Draft Registration card shows him living at the same addre...

I want to raise awareness about flaws in MyTrueAncestry's working with Ancient Samples and Deep Dives. I emailed the company about the problems. How MyTrueAncestry Works Our mission is to help you take your DNA results a step further. Discover your ancient relatives by comparing yourself to thousands of ancient samples from real archaeological sites. Our simple and secure service puts 10000 years of history, and over 85 ancient civilizations from around the world, at your fingertips. Samples are retrieved from archaelogical digs (e.g. a tooth from human remains) and the DNA is scanned in a complex process aligning the data with the human genome. Samples which are of high quality can then be processed as Ancient DNA samples. Raw samples are available to the public on online academic databases in raw format. Many ancient samples are of poor quality, but using advanced techniques it is possible to pull valuable information which can be used for comparisons. By combining the latest arc...
