: I have been in contact with Mike TOOKER (webmaster). In the
: near future there are going to be some changes to the
: data files on the web page. There will be Gedcom files
: in the data base. Gedcom files are (format developed
: and used by L.D.S.)acceptable to most genealogy
: programs. These will be able to be downloaded to your
: computer and opened in your genealogy program. You
: then will be able to see if Your ancestors are there
: or where your line fits in. This should give everyone
: a fairly large TOOKER/TUCKER database to work with.
: I have just added a rather large branch provided to
: me in a Gedcom fileby Carole VAUGHN of this group.
: This branch of the genealogy starts with Moses TUCKER
: b. 1758 son of Warner TOOKER 1719-1773. A word of
: caution here please make your genealogical entries in
: the name which appears in the source document. My
: genealogy has Warner as TOOKER. The records from
: Carole have Moses as TUCKER. The rest of the facts
: matched it was just that the last names were variants.
: I attached Moses as Moses TUCKER/TOOKER son of Warner
: TOOKER and the whole branch fit very well and added
: about 10 generations.
: There will be two Gedcom files in the begining. There
: may be more later. The first goes back to William
: Tucker 1432. This is also in the database as a text
: file provided by Warren TOOKER of California. The
: Gedcom file is mostly from the work of C. Evelyn Brown
: Stuewer and and Alma S.T. Saxton. This information
: came off the net. It has some critical errors but
: should be of help to some people as it may provide an
: entry point.
: The second Gedcom file is of a genealogy compiled and
: written by Franklin TUCKER and myself.The documentation
: is more sustantial and accuracy has been of great
: importance. This file goes back to Captain John TOOKER
: c. 1594(also known in some records as TUCKER) of Long
: Island. This is the file where the branches will be
: added. If you add a branch you will be listed as a
: research reference for that branch. Any other
: attachments to your added branch will have to be
: approved by you.
: At present if you want to add a branch or you have any : I am not as yet retired so turnaround time may be a bit : Thank you. : Jeffrey R. Tooker
: questions please contact me: Jeffrey R. TOOKER
:
: branch you want added and please explain where it fits
: into the tree.
: long. I hope I don't get swamped. I have shurly
: forgotten somthing but I know some of you will
: show me the error of my ways.
