I scanned about 130 photos more or less yesterday, and I do edit as I go along so I wasn't focused on scanning entirely, but I would not be able to get that kind of speed out of my laptop and I don't think the archives would quite go for me bringing my whole work station. With a camera, once you get a routine and a way to hold the camera steady you can snap a bunch of images, depending on your desired resolution (I always go for too high) and if you run out of room on your camera it will download to your lap top, say while you eat lunch or take a break or maybe try to round up some more documents.? I haven't actually done this much because I usually don't find enough stuff to make it practical for me to avoid paying what it costs for Xerox copies. Of course the only time I have made it to the archives I got there about three in the afternoon and had none of my genealogy with me so had no clue what I was looking at was relevant or not.

That price I found one place while adobe themselves want $80 dollars just to download an upgrade of my older version. I really like adobe because I have gotten to be a real wizard at restoring photos. I scan everything high res as a tif file, than go in straighten, clean up, sharpen, adjust color or whatever a pic needs that is doable and ten resave the tif and then save it as jpg for quicker viewing, If my jpg file is really big say a meg or more I will either downsize and save or maybe save the downsize as a?separate?file.

Like cell phones, I don't object to them including a camera and say a phone book and calculator and i actually take advantage of one of the free card games to entertain myself or help myself "be patient" quite regularly, but the other 7,467 functions or whatever are in the nine count them 9 menus on my simple cell phone (It was the simplest one AT&T had when I bought it) are completely useless to me and all they do is frustrate me when I need to find my calculator. Now I don't consider myself "Technology challenged" though my IT support/Son might dispute that in spite of my having taught him enough computerse to make him find entry classes in Junior college a waste of his time, but the menu on my current camera defeats me, I know there are certain functions it will allow me to change, but beyond switching between still mode and video and using flash suppression or forced flash I am at a loss. I say all this in prelude to pointing out that the fact your camera won't take an image less than 1280 X 1600 doesn't preclude using those images, it just means you have to massage the image. One thing you need to keep firmly in vies is the pixels are the measure of how much screen space an image uses and that depends on the resolution of the image. I scan at between 800 and 1200 pixels per inch depending on how important it is for me to get a good product. I routinely use 1200 for scanning slides and mini negatives as that allows me to get a half way decent product, though I doubt I will be printing any 8" X 10" prints that way. My point is at the 800 pixels resolution I scanned in a historic document, well a class 1946 reunion photo caption, and ended up with a 4800 by 5729 pixel image. I am guessing that image would not meet the criteria for Glen's purposes. So I went online and found this site; http://www.garyshood.com/imageconvert/ I selected the above mentioned image from my puter and typed 480 and 573 in the respective boxes. ?I try to reduce image by even whole amounts one fourth one half or whatever though that may not be necessary any more, but the important thing is to keep the ratio the same as your original image. I am not sure how much trouble you ?might have finding that out, I now you can open paint and on the "Image" menu click on "attributes" and it will tell you, I am not sure what the new version of paint has but it probably still does this. Anyway keep the ratio the same, making sure you select the format you want on the format pull down, and hit the send photo button and the image will pop up in the bottom of the screen. Right click on it and "save as" ?and you are good to go. The site also has a free downloadable version, but I don't know what kind of deal that might be. I know it is a pain to have to take the extra step, but I like high res images for my files and I convert all my camera images to a tif file right away when I massage them because that is not a lossy format like most of the formats are. I had a bit map of my little sister in one of my folders that had migrated through about six hard drives and I had to dump the folder and redownload it to my hard drive from my nephew's original CD because her image was covered with black blotches. One of the big questions, and I believe Layne was the first person I heard discuss this is that none of these computer storage media is a permanent storage solution. CD's and DVD's and blue ray and whatever comes next, as I under stand it are questionable in terms of how long term they are readable, not to mention?obsolescence; does anyone??have a floppy drive on their computer any more? The last computer I had with a floppy wouldn't read the discs and was long out of warranty before I even needed it. Not to mention when was the last time you saw a?desktop?that read five and a quarter inch discs? My apologies for my usual terse discourse, but hopefully some of you will be able to use this info to good purpose. Les C I was refering to the Pixals mine will not go below 1280? ?By 16?? and many programs cannot use anything over 800 by 1200 pixals. Yeah, some company marketing duds try to make us think, like the current ad on TV, that Bigger & Faster is Better -- not necessarily.?

Using Photoscape, I can take a lot of pictures of headstones (or documents) using the default settings on my camera, then bring them into the editor and crop them to show the details I want to retain. Then I can take these cropped photos and load them in the batch editor and from there, reduce the output to the preferred size (either in pixels, percentages of the original, or any other criteria I need) and rename them all with a prefix (I use sm-) so that I know that the image has been resized. These smaller versions of the originals are what I then post on Find-a-grave or other websites. I can then share the original images with people who have need of the larger size (such as family members or researcher who want to enlarge the image to verify details). I also wanted to remind/educate this group as to the difference in file formats... If you direct your camera to save things in Raw, or TIF mode, then if you edit the photo (such as cropping it, changing the contrast, etc), all of the original quality is retained. That is NOT the case with Jpg files. If you do not have the ability to direct the software to preserve the jpg at 100%. If you save a jpg file to the same file, the quality will be reduced. ?

In the box?the folder?is filed under "Seniors."?The box is made up of correspondence with the Superintendent of Public Instruction. ? The folder is arranged alphabetically by county.?

I find Arlen and his Mom and Dad in 1940 in Drain C. C. Swearingen 35 b OR Eyethel (yes, that really is the way she spelled it) age 32 b MN, Geneva 13 and Mildred 12. But 1940 give no clues as to marriage date so I went looking for them in 1930 and have about concluded they dodged that one. In 1910 and 1920 CD is with if parents Ora and Agnes listed as Cortise in 1910 and Cordice? in 1920, but my understanding is his name was actually Cortes which is Arlen's middle name. I saved all of his kin in Drain in 1930 which left about two pages out of my family file. I haven't tried the immediate surroundings of Drain yet, but the one clue I have found is they are lving in "Deerhorn" in 1933, at least according to an item in the RG that talks about Geneve and Mildred returning home there from a visit to Cornvalley. I tried both Leaburg and Thurston precincts but no sign of them and I don't find a listing for Walterville in 1930 and since ther are some Pepiots in the McKenzie highway listing of Thurston I figure that should be the Walterville area. The McKenzie Hwy prct is up the river at McKenzie bridge I think because there are a bunch of Belknaps in it. I have obits for CD's wife, father and brother Virgil and something or other relation Archie Morningstar, at least I assume there is a connection since Archie has a sister married to a Swearingen and the Morningstars and Swearingens are neighbors most of the time.? So if someone could direct me to the right 1930 Census I would be very grateful, if I know where to look I can get the image myself if there is one. Of course if someone came up with CD's obit and or marriage date that would be gravy, but I am about ready to write that off.? For as much stuff as Family Search has available now it is amazing how many giant holes I still have in my family file.

Go down to the list of place names and click on United States and a whole passel of stuff will pop up; scroll down to the Oregon listing and anything with a camera icon next to it is images.

Your answer was a little frustrating; "why the heck did Ancestry just give me the street address: 'Ewards Lane'" but I looked for Searingen on Family History ans sure enough there they were except Family Search only gave me the street address, then i looked a little closer and saw the commma between Edwards and Lane. Okay major face slap for Les. Here I was thinking the census taker in that neighborhood had such neat clear handwriting finding them would be a snap if they were there and of all the names for him to totally butcher it had to be my guy! Thanks again, that is great, I should mention I have the file from Rootsweb posted by Barbara Jones if that is the file you were going to get for me.

In 1910 and 1920 CD is with if parents Ora and Agnes listed as Cortise in 1910 and Cordice? in 1920, but my understanding is his name was actually Cortes which is Arlen's middle name. I saved all of his kin in Drain in 1930 which left about two pages out of my family file. I haven't tried the immediate surroundings of Drain yet, but the one clue I have found is they are lving in "Deerhorn" in 1933, at least according to an item in the RG that talks about Geneve and Mildred returning home there from a visit to Cornvalley. I tried both Leaburg and Thurston precincts but no sign of them and I don't find a listing for Walterville in 1930 and since ther are some Pepiots in the McKenzie highway listing of Thurston I figure that should be the Walterville area. The McKenzie Hwy prct is up the river at McKenzie bridge I think because there are a bunch of Belknaps in it. I have obits for CD's wife, father and brother Virgil and something or other relation Archie Morningstar, at least I assume there is a connection since Archie has a sister married to a Swearingen and the Morningstars and Swearingens are neighbors most of the time.? So if someone could direct me to the right 1930 Census I would be very grateful, if I know where to look I can get the image myself if there is one. Of course if someone came up with CD's obit and or marriage date that would be gravy, but I am about ready to write that off.? For as much stuff as Family Search has available now it is amazing how many giant holes I still have in my family file. Speaking of Family search folks with Oregon ancestors need to check out some of the stuff on there if they haven't Douglas Co deed index is?available?and early deeds are too, though I don't think they are searchable? Go down to the list of place names and click on United States and a whole passel of stuff will pop up; scroll down to the Oregon listing and anything with a camera icon next to it is images. I had an interesting time browsing the Deeds last night, found a whole bunch of Melvins there who are not kin as far as I know. Thank you for any help I might?receive Leslie Chapman. _____________________________________________________ or-roots mailing list or-roots at listsmart.osl.state.or.us http://listsmart.osl.state.or.us/mailman/listinfo/or-roots Hosted by the Oregon State Library.
