TITLE : GenealogyMagazine.com - Vintage True-Crime Magazines: An Untapped Goldmine For Genealogists
DESCRIPTION : Article by James Pylant. Dedicated genealogists are relentless when seeking facts on our families. We want to be thorough and consider every source available, even the obscure and unconventional. Oftentimes the history of a family has been impacted by crime, whether a relative was victim or perpetrator. The era of the true-crime magazine has virtually ended. Yet those countless articles that first came into print more than eighty years ago are a unique, untapped goldmine for family historians.

TITLE : GenealogyMagazine.com - Was Your Ancestor Courteous -- Or Did He Just Wear Short Stockings?: Same Surname, Different Meaning
DESCRIPTION : Of American surnames most frequently appearing in the Social Security Death Index, Curtis ranks at 267 of 50,000. Its derivation is often linked to the word courteous; a characteristic as defined in the Middle Ages of one with courtly manners, refinement or education. Curtis, however, has more than one origin. It also comes from Curthose, a nickname given to someone wearing short stockings. The Middle English word curt (meaning short) was coupled with hose, originally a mas stockings.

TITLE : GenealogyMagazine.com - Weaselhead, Devil and Drunkard: Surnames Originating as Insults
DESCRIPTION : An article by James Pylant. Surnames developed gradually and casually in the Middle Ages, not through a formal or legal system. In a growing population, there was a need to distinguish people with the same common first names within a village or town, and last names came about as a means of sorting who was who on the tax lists. But oftentimes our ancestors were saddled with surnames originating as uncomplimentary nicknames.
