Host Scott Fisher opens the show with David Allen Lambert, Chief Genealogist of the New England Historic Genealogical Society and AmericanAncestors.org. The guys open with David’s report of his remarkable discovery from 1780, folded between the pages of an old newspaper. Then, hear about two half sisters, born during World War II, who have just connected through DNA. Then, German records of British POWs from the war are now available. David has details. Next, a burial site in London is being moved to make way for a railway station, and the historic items being discovered are now on display. Finally, hear about how the first person ever admitted through Ellis Island now has a play based on her life. In Segment Two, Fisher shares his 2021 interview with World War II vet, Jack Holder, who has just passed at 101 years old. Jack talks about how the very first bomb dropped in the war landed less than a football field away, and his close call with a strafing Japanese pilot. Then, Lindsay Fulton of NEHGS comes on to talk about the recognition of the 250th anniversary of the Boston Tea Party and how a new society is being created around descendants of those with some connection. David then returns for Ask Us Anything. That’s all this week on Extreme Genes, America’s Family History Show!

Episode 454 - The Late Jack Holder On Surviving Pearl Harbor / Lindsay Fulton Of NEHGS On New Boston Tea Party Society

Fisher opens the show with information about the Preserve the Pensions program which is seeking private funding to digitize and make available for free all War of 1812 pension files.  In Family Histoire news, Fisher tells of a woman who just turned 106, and you won’t believe her diet staples!  Also, blood from Winston Churchill is up for auction.  Catch the whole story of where it came from.  And, the Danish government and MyHeritage.com are releasing all kinds of “new” old records from Denmark. In segment two, Lindsay Fulton, Genealogist from the New England Historic Genealogical Society in Boston talks about the challenges of navigating the application process of major genealogical societies like the Daughters and Sons of the American Revolution and the Mayflower Society.  Want to celebrate your ancestors in this way, or simply have your research validated by independent eyes?  Lindsay has some great tips. Fisher then visits with Isabella Prete, who only started her research journey in the last couple years.  And she’s already begun having those experiences that only family historians have.  You won’t believe how a Scottish monk stepped in to connect her with living family back in the old country! And Tom Perry is back with more on preservation.  That’s this week on Extreme Genes, America’s Family History Show!
