Ellis IslandThe Ellis Island immigration Museum has been

open for one year. Opened on September 10,1990,the museum showcases Ellis Island, the former im-migrationstation,asthe``GatewaytotheNewworld"foroverl7millionnewAmericansbetweenl892and1954. It is estimated that 40 percent of all U.S.Citizens can trace an ancestor to Ellis Island. Theyearoldmuseumhashada.bouttwomillionvisitorssince last September.

Ellis Island was named for Samuel Ellis, a,Welchman who bought the Island in the 18th Cen-tury when it was called Oyster Island and was apopular picnic spot because of its renowned oysterbeds. The island was a 3.5 acre sandbar when the

The Government selected EllisIsland as the site for the immigration station in aneffort to protect newcomers because as an island, itwas free from the corruption and treachery thatplagued mainland ports.

Great-great-grandfatherwas a what?!The fun of genealogy these days isn't searching forroyals in your family tree. It's in finding colorfulscoundrels and forebears born out of wedlock.By Richard Phalon

Reprinted by permission of Forbes `magazine, April 15,1991. © Forbes lnc.,1991

The passion for genealogy ishardly a new pursuit. But nowa-days fewer folks are combing ar-chives to see if they belong to theGeneralsocietyofMayflowerDe-scendants or if they qualify formembership in the Daughters ofthe American Revolution. Thesedays people seem to revel in dis-coveringforebearswhoarrivedinsteerage or a relative who washangedasahorsethief.Thankstocomputers, the search is gettingeasier and cheaper all the time.

`Tt's all about family values,"

says Bo# Apped.f's Cleon T. (Bud)Knapp,ownerOfBinappCommu-nications. Fhapp has hired pro-fessional genealogists to map outhis family tree. ``We came overhere broke, probably as inden-tured servants, and we've donewell. But in these days of thenuclear family, it's inportant weall remember where we camefrom."

The microchip has made ac-cess to such documentary trea-sure troves as the MormonChurch'slnternationalGenealogy

Indexliterallyassimpleaspunch-ing a keyboard (see I)or, pngg 4). Ithas taken much of the drudgeryout of the paper chase throughsuch basic sources as birth anddeath certificates, census records,militarypensionapplications,pasr

senger ship manifest, wills anddeeds.

Access to the records of ordi-naryfolkswhoimmigratedtothiscountry through Ellis Island willalso be a lot easier, thanks to theeffortsofthenonprofitEllislsland

Ellis Islandopenedin1892andclosedin1924for mass immigration purposes,and has recently reopened as anexquisitely restored museum."Wehopetobeon-linenextyear,"

says Lax. ``We're trying to insurethat the records of people whocontributed so much to the coun-trywon'tremaindustintheattic."

Henry Ho ff, 45, is an accoun-tantbytradebutagenealogistbyavocation. And one of his speci-alities is tweaking hereditarygroupieswhomeasuretheirworthbytheimportanceoftheancestralnames they can drop, often onshaky grounds.

WhilemajoringinBritishhisrtory at Yale in the Sixties, for ex-ample, he debunked a couple oftraditionlongcherishedinhisownfamily line. `'1 was a little suspi-cious right away," he says of oneold familylegend. ``What was aprosperous Burlington County,N.J.farmerdoingclaiminggentryancestry based on a coat of armsdated 1786?" Hoff discoveredthere was no such blue blood inthe family tree.

Hehasbeenbusyshakingoutfamily tress ever since. Over theyears, he has managed to turn out


athigh-thickfileofscholarlywork,including coauthorship of the re-cently published, 12-generationgenealogy of the Roosevelt fam-ily. Ho ff is distantly related to

''We're trying toensure that therecords of peoplewho coutri.batedso much to thecountry w on'tremain dust inthe attic.`,-PhiTlip Lax, Ellis IslandRestoration Commission

TheodoreRoosevelt(athirdcousinof his grandmother.)

Hoff and his coauthor, Timo-thy Field Bear, former referencehead of the New York PublicLibrary's genealogy division, un-earthed several branches of thefamily omitted from an earliertreatment`foecausetheydidn'tdovery well in life," chuckles Hoff.Robert 8. Roosevelt, for example,

an uncle of Theodore, had twofamiliesatthesametime,onebyhiswifeandanotherbyhismis-tress.

The Hoff-Beard study alsoacknowledgesanumberofotherillegitimate Roosevelts, includ-ingatleastoneconceivedwithahousemaid. "A painful disclo-sure to some," says Ho ff, `fout alotofthefuningenealogyisthatyou never know where it's go-ing to take you."

Research on Sam'l Agnew of So. Carolina

The last issue of the Ag-#ezusze#gr contained infor-mationaboutthefamilylinedescended from JamesAgnew of Balloo, CountyDown, Ireland who settledinPennsylvania.Newmem-ber Kenneth D. Agnew ofFountain hn, South CaLro-linahasprovidedtheAgnewAssociation with informa-tion from his genealolgicalresearch, which traces hisAgnew line from SouthCarolina to Pennsylvania,revealing more informationabout thatline. Ifis research

included transcribing thewill of Samuel Agnew, sonofTamesAgnewofpennsyl-vania. The transcribed willappears on pages 6 and 7 oftheAgreovsze#er.

Kenneth reports thatSamuel was the first of hisline in South Carolina, al-though other Agnews(French Huguenots) pre-cededsamuelinsouthcaro-lina prior to 1770. He alsohas discovered that manyIrish Agnews arrived at theport of Charleston over thenext hundred years or so.
