Genealogy: Joseph Howard Foster (1816-1870)

I'm experimenting with posting some random bits of my genealogy research here with the goal of eventually creating a linked family tree on Hive. You can see the index here.

Subject: Joseph Howard Foster (1816-1870)

Relationship to me: Second cousin five times removed

Family tree management software: GenoPro

Family tree reporting software: Gramps

Other software used: The Next Generation of Genealogy Sitebuilding (TNG), GedSite (evaluating for now)

Updates: Found additional info on marriage dates and children as well as some census info.

Some of the notes below refer Joseph Parish Foster who is Joseph Howard Foster's grandfather.

The chart at the top is an ancestry chart out to four generations. The chart at the bottom is the same chart as generated by TNG. The index of all individuals I have posted so far can be found here.

Hive is ideal for this project and I imagine we could all build something like this. The chain is a great form of database after all.

Will be interesting to see how it evolves.
