Lorine McGinnis Schulze 1946 - 2022
From Brian.
As most of you already know my wife Lorine has passed away. It was a great shock to myself, her family and many of you in the Genealogy community. Lorine loved Genealogy. It was her passon. It was her wish that Olive Tree Genealogy would continue to live on and I intend to see that it does. It will of course not be the same without Lorine but I will do my best to fulfill her wishes. While I do not pretend to have Lorines genealogical skills (She was amazing) I am a Genealogist and have picked up a few tricks from her over the last 25 years. In fact it was Genealogy that brought Lorine into my life. I met Lorine while working at the publishing company that printed her first book, The Van Slyke Family In America, way back in 1996. From that day on we were inseparable.
She will be greatly missed but her work will live on.

Some time ago I was skim-reading “Custom and Conflict in a Wealden Village; Pluckley 1550-1700” a 1987 thesis by Neil Davie, and lo and behold, he mentioned one of my ancestors, Benet Butcher.
“He [Richard Yonge] was the only churchwarden serving between 1550 and 1618 to be involved with the courts in this way, though Benet, the wife of Thomas Waterman (a churchwarden in 1591) was accused of having
"lyved incontynently with wyllyam Golding now a jurnyman shomaker at Tenterden in 1575.”
Now I need to find out more about this John Golding because another ancestor Hannah Philpot from Pluckley married a Golding and moved to Lenham
It’s very cool what tiny genealogical tidbit you can sometimes find in an academic thesis.

19 Years of Blogging for Olive Tree Genealogy Blog!
Happy Birthday to my Olive Tree Genealogy Blog! Can you believe it is 19 years old?It all started when a friend invited me to post on his new blog and suggested I start my own blog. My response was "Huh? What's a blog?" Yep that's right. 19 years ago blogs were just starting up and not many people were aware of them.
It was February in Canada. It was cold and snowy and we Canadians always get the February blahs. So I started a blog. This blog. And I found I loved doing it!
My family always tell me I'm pretty talkative and here's proof: I've written almost 4000 blog posts since my blog was born in February 2003.
I hope my readers aren't bored with me (yet) as I plan to carry on sharing my stories with you
Out of curiousity I looked up what the most popular blog posts were since the start.
I’m off to blow out some candles and eat some cake!
