  • RLP 397: What Genealogists Can Learn from Colum McCann's "TransAtlantic": Writing Family History
    2026/02/16
    The episode opens with Diana and Nicole catching up on their latest work, focusing on testing AI models for accuracy in handwritten-text transcription tasks. The hosts then discuss the novel TransAtlantic by Irish author Colum McCann and what family historians can learn from its structure to write better family narratives. Diana explains that the novel views the immigration story from the Irish perspective, following the fictional character Lily Duggan and three subsequent generations, with the prose connecting each fictional character to a true story and an actual historical figure. Nicole shares the first historical snapshot, covering Lily Duggan's 1845 meeting with the formerly enslaved abolitionist Frederick Douglass in Ireland. She then details the 1919 Atlantic crossing of Lily's daughter Emily and granddaughter Lottie, where they witness the first non-stop transatlantic flight by aviators Alcock and Brown. Diana picks up the thread by discussing Lottie's later meeting with US Senator George Mitchell during his 1998 peace brokering visit to Northern Ireland, and the final chapter, where Lily's great-granddaughter, Hannah, possesses the unopened letter that connects all the women. Listeners learn three key ideas for writing their own family stories: use a focal object passed down through generations, consider historical characters an ancestor may have encountered, and research important historical events in the time and place their ancestors lived to understand how those events may have impacted them.

  • RLP 396: Visiting My Love County, Oklahoma, Roots
    2026/02/09
    In this episode, hosts Diana and Nicole share a personal and informative journey as they visit their Love County, Oklahoma, roots to walk in the footsteps of Diana's ancestors, Richard and Nancy (Briscoe) Frazier. Diana recounts the lives of her 2nd great-grandparents, discussing their survival through the Civil War in the Ozarks, Richard's service as a teamster for the Confederacy, and their eventual migration from Missouri to Texas and then across the Red River into the Chickasaw Nation (Burneyville) in the 1890s. Nicole shares details from their visits to the Burneyville Cemetery, where Richard and Nancy are buried alongside two of their children. She provides an analysis of their headstones, including the epitaphs and the early 20th-century Christian symbolism, and discusses a treasured family photo of Nancy with her grandchildren, Ettie Belle and Bert Harris. Diana then recounts her visit to the Love County Historical Society Pioneer Museum. She highlights how local museums provide essential context, noting the replicas of ferries—like Tuck's Ferry—that the Frazier family would have used to cross the Red River. Diana shares her experience meeting the curator, Laquitta, and discovering an obituary for one of Nancy's sons, Colon Frazier. Listeners will learn the immense value of visiting the physical locations of their ancestors' lives and using cemetery and museum research to bring their family history to life.

  • RLP 395: How to Use Ancestry DNA Custom Clusters in Your Research
    2026/02/02
    This episode focuses on the exciting custom clustering feature now available in Ancestry's Pro Tools. Diana introduces the tool, explaining how it allows for the strategic targeting of specific ancestral lines, offering more flexibility than the original clustering tool. She describes Ancestry's process, which looks for matches sharing 65 cM to 1,300 cM with the user, and then finds those matches that also share at least 20 cM with each other. Nicole discusses the key benefits of using custom clusters: they help you hone in on specific ancestral lines, quickly identify groups descending from common ancestors, and work more efficiently at distant generations. Before creating a cluster, Diana reviews critical points from Ancestry, noting that clusters expire after 30 days unless saved to a group and you are limited to 25 clusters in your history. Nicole shares Ancestry's recommended centimorgan ranges based on the generational distance of the ancestor you are researching. She then walks through the four steps for creating a cluster: choosing a target match, selecting four additional "sidekick" matches, setting the centimorgan range, and generating the cluster. Diana provides a real-world example from her Cline family research, detailing how she used a custom cluster with a 20-50 cM range to test a hypothesis about the parentage of John C. Cline. The results successfully separated her matches into distinct sub-clusters that provide additional evidence for her research. Listeners learn practical tips for success, including saving clusters strategically, trying different target and sidekick match combinations, and systematically tracking all experiments in a research log like Airtable. This powerful strategy helps you apply a new approach to breaking down your DNA research brick walls. This summary was generated by Google Gemini.
