Genealogy Roundup, September 25 – Megan Smolenyak

Soldier Accounted for from WWII – Welcome home, PVT Robert Lee Bryant. Honored to have researched your family.
Note: This is the 100th WWII soldier I’ve researched who’s been identified. 191 overall, but 100th specifically for WWII. The pace of identification has accelerated in recent years.

Dr. George Schweitzer, longest serving professor at University of Tennessee at Knoxville – RIP, Prof. George K Schweitzer. His efforts assisted countless genealogists during his 99 years.

Hey, y’all, Have you tried Google NotebookLM? I just fed it my article on Tim Walz’s Irish roots and had it create a podcast-style discussion between a man and a woman about the research. And you know what? It did a really good job! A couple of minor hiccups, sure, but so much better than a lot of AI I’ve played with. Whether you’ve read that article or not, you might enjoy giving this a listen:

Survey: Most Americans won’t get new flu, COVID-19 vaccines – UPI.com (Me: Stupidity in USA on the rise)

Fewer than two in five U.S. adults (38%) say they will definitely get a flu jab, and only one in four (26%) say they’ll get the updated COVID vaccine, according to a survey released Wednesday by the National Foundation for Infectious Diseases.

“Last flu season, an estimated 25,000 people in the U.S. died from flu or related complications and 75,000 from COVID-19 in 2023, demonstrating how dangerous these diseases can be,” U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Dr. Mandy Cohen said in a news release.
