Professional Software Developer, Amateur Genealogist
Looking for a different Scott Lee?
Have you donated blood lately (or ever)? The American Red Cross is
constantly in short supply of blood donors. Join the VIP Donor
program and commit to give 4 or more times per year. I have. For
more information call 1-800-GIVE-LIFE.
- A Calendar Conversion Program
- My hobbies are genealogy (family history) and software
development. So, naturally I like to write software related to
genealogy. One problem that genealogists run into is that
historical documents sometimes give dates in calendar systems
other than the modern Gregorian calendar. So, I wrote a
program to convert these dates to and from Gregorian. If you
are a C programmer you may want to download the source from here and
incorporate it into your own programs.
- Genealogy Links
- These are collections of links to genealogy information.
When I need to find something on the net, this is where I
start.
- Cyndi's List of Genealogy Sites on the Internet
- This is an extensive list of genealogy resources on
the Internet compiled by Cyndi Howells.
- Genealogy Resources on the Internet
- This is an index of genealogy resources on the Internet. It includes Mailing Lists, USENET Newsgroups, anonymous File Transfer Protocol (FTP), Gopher, World Wide Web, Telnet, and E-Mail. It is compiled by Chris Gaunt and John Fuller.
- History of Newton County Mississippi from 1834 to 1894
- I decided to stop complaining about the lack of original
genealogical source material on the Web and to do something
about it. This is a book that was originally published in
1894, republished in 1964 and is now out of print. It contains
hundreds of names of people that lived in the county and is a
valuable resource for genealogists. I am in the process of
scanning it with a flat bed scanner and using OCR (optical
character recognition) software to convert it to a Web page so
everyone will have access to it. I am also adding an index of
all names mentioned. Hopefully it will be completely converted
soon (depending on how much spare time I get to work on it).
- RECOLLECTIONS
- This is a reproduction of a small pamphlet published in 1934 by A. B. Amis, Sr. It describes the religious, courtship and social customs of the 1870s and 1880s in rural central Mississippi.
