TIEDECK, MICHAEL (1910 U.S. Census)
NEW YORK , KINGS, 29-WD BROOKLYN
Age: 46, Male, Race: WHITE, Born: GERM
Series: T624 Roll: 982 Page: 29
Recently I sat in a training meeting for a few minutes. The Stake Family History Director (who was training) told me about being able to access Census Data online through our local library’s website. Well I finally upgraded my library card ($1) and quickly searched for Michele’s Paternal Grandmother’s surname “Tiedeck”. I’ve been peeking at the Tiedeck line for a while and haven’t found very much (other than marriage information for George, who I assumed could be a uncle).
Well I logged in to www.lvccld.org. Then I searched the Heritage Quest Census database.
Bingo!
Age, country of birth, seven children including Michele’s Great Grandfather Harry Tiedeck, and more.
Tiedeck, Michael, head, 46
Anna, wife, 44
Alice, daughter, 18?
George, son, 14
Florence, daughter, 13
Harry, son, 12
Anna, daughter, 7
Michael, son, 6
Roy, son, 2
Both parents were born in Germany. All the children were born in New York. Michael was employed as an iron worker. It looks like the family spoke english.
I wonder if Michele’s father was named (in part) after his Grandfather Michael Tiedeck?

Our new baby should arrive sometime this month. Life will continue to be busy at least for a couple months. I won’t be making frequent updates at least until October.
I did want to point out Joe Edmon’s Bookmarks on steroids – Using an RSS News Reader article at Genealogy Blog. It’s a good introduction to syndicated news feeds and genealogy. (I use bloglines as my news reader).
One thing not mentioned in Joe’s article is about a news feed on this site and other’s that provides updated information on genealogical data updates. This feature (provided by TNG software) allows anyone to keep up on other’s research and work. This is essentially just a news feed of TNG’s “What’s New” (recent changes).
Here’s the link to Family Preserves RSS 2.0 (Gen Data) news feed.
And a few others:
lythgoes.net
slpatterson.com/
www.celestialfamily.org
www.jonesworld.org
The workers at celestialfamily.org and slpatterson.com are especially busy, and update their data a at few times each week.
Privacy is also not an real issue, because the newsfeeds also takes advantage of TNG’s built-in security feature for living individuals. If you don’t have a user name and password you don’t get the information.
I think the most powerful part of blogs, news readers and genealogy is the potential to collaborate and share research. Unfortunately I haven’t done as good of a job as I should have with my own family to evangelize this. I also think weblog, news readers and web-based genealogy software is still in an infant stage. Here’s to the future.
Terry has sent me an updated gedcom for the Roper and Hansen lines. I had to import it into PAF and they export back to a gedcom before the website genealogy software would import it.
Unfortunately it looks like some of the photos are now linked to wrong individuals. These will be fixed shortly.
Last night I finished reading From Quaker to Latter-Day Saint: Bishop Edwin D. Woolley by Leonard J Arrington.
The historical tome, almost 500 pages, is wonderful book, that provided me with a much better historical perspective. Not only history on Edwin Dilworth Wooley, but also on the Church. There are many familiar things with church history that I wasn’t aware of, along with many others that weren’t so familiar.
This is definately a must read for any of his descendents (I’m married to one). A word of caution, if your not an avid reader, which I’m not, it may take a little while to finish.
You can find used copies on Amazon starting under $8 (plus shipping).
