Hi,
Can someone help me find the parents of:
James Gross born 1855 at Dorchester Maryland.
Nancy Gross (Parker maiden name) born 1853 at Dorchester Maryland.
Thanks,
Anna Adams
Anna,
There are a number of good genealogy research facilities between
Baltimore-Annapolis-Washington. You did not mention what you will be
looking for in your research and that makes a lot of difference in where you
go. If you are primarily researching Maryland ancestors, the Maryland State
Archives in Annapolis is probably the best place to go. If you are looking
for ancestors from other states, the National Archives (in Washington, not
College Park), Library of Congress (LOC), and the DAR Library are great
places to do research. From my experience and their web site, I don't think
the College Park NARA has much useful genealogy info.
http://www.archives.gov/dc-metro/
All facilities have great web sites. You should check them for what you are
allowed to take in, hours, etc. Also, make a list from their web sites of
what you want to look for. The LOC and DAR have their catalogs online.
Here are the web sites and my recommendations on each. This should keep you
busy for a while.
National Archives, Washington : http://www.archives.gov/research/index.htmlhttp://www.archives.gov/research/start/visit-us.html
All the Federal Census records (most of which are now online at Ancestry and
other web sites), all the passenger lists and indexes, military service
records from the Civil War, War of 1812 and Revolutionary War, pension
records for those wars (except for Confederate pensions, which they do not
have), some City Directories. Most, but not all, are on microfilm. Many
other records, but these are the most commonly used. This facility is
across the street from a Washington metro stop. Catch the Metro Red Line in
Greenbelt and one of its stops is right at the Archives. If you have online
access to the Census, I would skip this facility unless you need the
military or passenger records.
Library of Congress: http://www.loc.gov/
A ton of great local genealogy and history books from across the country and
the world. Plus the largest collection I have seen of old City Directories,
over 700 US cities. Search their catalog before you go, to see if it is
worthwhile. Make a list of books you want to see, including all the
identifying numbers. For each book, you fill out a request form and it
takes an hour or so for them to bring them to you. This is about 2 blocks
from a Metro stop, I think on the Orange Line.
DAR Library: http://www.dar.org/library/default.cfm
A ton of great local genealogy and history books from all across the country
and the world. The great feature of the DAR library is that all the books
are on open shelves where you can browse all the books on a particular
county or surname, without waiting for someone to bring them to you. Search
their catalog to see if they have what you want and make yourself a list if
you go. This is a long walk from any Wash. Metro stop.
Maryland State Archives, Annapolis:
http://www.mdarchives.state.md.us/msa/homepage/html/homepage.html
They are closed on Mondays, Tuesdays and some Saturdays. The only facility
with great free parking. Click on "Reference and Research" to see details
on what they have. If you use their web site to find particular film
numbers (or accession numbers for non-film items), you will save a lot of
time at the facility. Get death certificate numbers online at
http://mdvitalrec.net/cfm/dsp_search.cfm
Enoch Pratt Library (main branch), Baltimore:
http://www.epfl.net/http://www.pratt.lib.md.us/slrc/ssh/genealogypratt.htmlhttp://www.pratt.lib.md.us/slrc/md/index.htmlhttp://www.epfl.net/slrc/annex.html?sid=4#md
City directories, Census records, passenger lists, a very large old
newspaper collection, Sanborne maps, and many books, but all of the above
only covering Maryland.
MD Historical Society, Baltimore, not far from the Pratt Library:
http://www.mdhs.org/http://www.mdhs.org/explore/library.html
Many special collections and unique records for MD history and genealogy.
Free parking lot right outside.

Anna:
Annapolis and Washington, DC are not really in close
proximity, you'll need two days-one for each facility.
Here's the link to the Info for Researchers at NARA,
click on Research Room rules for info on what is and
isn't allowed. Appears you can bring laptops and
cameras and "approved" scanners.
http://www.archives.gov/dc-metro/washington/researcher-info.html
MD archives rules are posted here
http://www.mdarchives.state.md.us/msa/refserv/forms/html/rules.html
appears you can ask permission to use cameras (but it
doesn't look like they are very happy about them).
Laptops okay but no scanners of any sort.
MD archives has a decent sized (free) parking lot but
when you go to NARA you'll need to either pay big
bucks for a parking garage or take a metro train in
from the suburbs. There's no parking to be had easily
or cheaply in DC.
