SUMMARY:Topic Talk: FamilySearch Research Wiki
DESCRIPTION:A Wikipedia for genealogists\, gift to researchers\, essential website.  Covering regions and locations around the world\, religions\, languages\, research tools and much more\, the Research Wiki is hosted on the FamilySearch Library’s website.  We’ll discuss how we’ve used this evolving nearly 20-year-old resource over time…and learn what might be there that we haven’t used yet.  One may not be able to lead a horse to water\, but the Research Wiki may lead a genealogist to a fountain of possibilities. \n\n\n\n~ // ~ \n\n\n\nFor members only.

SUMMARY:A Land Filled With Horses: The Yanci Ranch by Robyn Rominger
DESCRIPTION:Robyn Rominger’s “A Land Filled With Horses: The Yanci Ranch” is more than a simple account of an animal rescue; it is a personal chronicle affirming the impact of resilience\, collective action\, and unwavering commitment that culminated in the monumental task of saving a large\, abandoned herd of neglected horses on a remote Northern California ranch. The Yanci Ranch horses were found to have rare genetic markers that contributed to important genetic research with human-health implications\, adding an unexpected layer of significance to their rescue. This focus on genetics is an element that elevates the work beyond a typical rescue memoir. \n\n\n\n~ // ~ \n\n\n\nRobyn Rominger grew up in Davis\, California\, and is an author and journalist who has spent more than three decades writing about all aspects of agriculture for publications across the United States. Robyn has a passion for farming\, ranching\, local history\, and horses! Her associated research at the local county archives and regional history centers\, and using online genealogical resources\, has made her a prominent local historian. She enjoys sharing her expertise with others by presenting to different groups. Robyn is married to a fifth-generation Yolo County farmer and lives on the family farm near Winters. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJoin us in-person at the Davis Senior Center (646 A St.\, Davis)\, or via Zoom (email us at president@davisgenealogy.org to request a one time guest pass). \n\n\n\nRefreshments are provided by the club; more are always welcome! \n\n\n\nThe Davis Genealogy Club Library will be open on meeting day from 12:00-1:00pm-Swing by and check it out! Club volunteers are also in the Library every Wednesday between 1:00 and 3:30\, ready to help.

SUMMARY:DGC Book Club - Unnatural Selection: A Memoir of Adoption and Wilderness by Andrea Ross. Nonfiction 2021
DESCRIPTION:Andrea Ross is a local Davis author \n\n\n\n~ // ~ \n\n\n\nBrown bag lunch 12:30 – Book discussion begins 1:00 in the Genealogy library.~ // ~Adopted at birth\, Andrea Ross grew up inhabiting two ecosystems: one was her tangible\, adoptive family\, the other her birth family\, whose mysterious landscape was hidden from her. In this coming-of-age memoir\, Ross narrates how in her early twenties\, while working as a ranger in Grand Canyon National Park\, she embarked on a journey to discover where she came from and\, ultimately\, who she was. After many missteps and dead ends\, Ross uncovered her heartbreaking and inspiring origin story and began navigating the complicated turns of reuniting with her birth parents and their new families. Through backcountry travel in the American West\, she also came to understand her place in the world\, realizing that her true identity lay not in a choice between adopted or biological parents\, but in an expansion of the concept of family. \n\n\n\n~ // ~ \n\n\n\nTo find a copy of the book\, we recommend a public library\, audible.com\, Amazon\, local bookstores\, eBay\, AddAll.com\, betterworldbooks.com\, thriftbooks.com and other locations for used books. \n\n\n\nDuring the Book Club Meeting\, the next book will be selected.
