"The First Muirs of The Province of Quebec" is the first
professional research effort to identify all of the early Muir's
who arrived after the French and Indian War which ended in 1763.
Their origins and relationships are explored and parents identified
for the first time for some of them. Evidence is presented herein
that the Two Millers, James and William Muir, were brothers and
were possibly related to Adam and Archibald Muir. James and
William's Scottish origins were discovered as were their
siblings.
The Descendants of James Muir of Beloeil, Vercheres, Quebec, are
documented through five generations to include all descendants that
could be identified. Many of the spouses of these descendants and
their parents were also identified for the first time. Many
descendants migrated to Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, Connecticut
and Massachusetts to work in the mills that were springing up in
the nineteenth century there.
The variation of French names which changed from record to
record as well as the French custom of "dit" names were major
challenges that had to be overcome in this research.
The descendants of Seth and John Yates documents for the first time
the families of these two men using all extant records that could
be located during an exhaustive search of early New England
records. Seths children and grandchildren moved between Newport and
Providence during the American Revolution and most of the
descendants through to the early twentieth century were still found
in New England except for his grandson Jonathan whose children
moved to Michigan and Wisconsin and contained some very prominent
individuals of their time. The daughters married into the Carder,
Melvill, Burr, Cahoone, Cranston, Hammett, and other prominent
Newport and Providence families. Johns line moved first to
Uxbridge, Massachusetts, and within two more generations had spread
to New York State, Ohio, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, and Iowa.
These families were pioneers of their times, fought in the American
Revolution, the Civil War, and participated in public affairs. One
of Johns daughters married Shem Drown and his children have been
documented with never before found records. His grandsons Amariah
and Barzillai were pioneers in Genesee and Tioga counties, New
York, leaving numerous descendants. Johns granddaughter Elizabeth
married Benjamin Read and had a child who married her cousin,
identified here for the first time.
Crime Scene Unit Management: A Path Forward is a must-have resource
for anyone involved with forensic investigations and the search for
evidence at the crime scene. The book provides standards for how to
manage a crime scene so that evidence is collected and preserved
without errors and includes guidelines for how to implement the
standards and set up regional training programs for smaller
jurisdictions with tighter budgets. Key features include examples,
checklists, and flow charts for evidence handling and routing.
CSIs, fire investigators, homicide investigators, accident
investigators, police executives, and students of forensic science
will benefit from this thorough approach to how the crime scene-and
the personnel charged with tending to the evidence-should be
managed.
The work of Crime Scene Investigators (CSIs) is made more
complicated when the scene is contaminated by either Chemical,
Biological, Radiological, Nuclear, Explosives (CBRNEs) or Toxic
Industrial Chemicals (TICs). Special considerations must be
observed when working at such scenes, whether they are the result
of acts of terrorism, accidents, or natural disasters. Practical
Crime Scene Investigations for Hot Zones contains guidelines and
best practices for keeping CSIs safe and conducting a thorough
crime scene investigation in these deadly environments. A
compilation of professional experiences and observations from CSIs
who have encountered these challenges in the field, the book offers
strategies for dealing with a host of scenarios. The expert
contributors discuss practices and procedures validated by the U.S.
Department of Homeland Security and the FBI's Hazardous Materials
Response Unit and Laboratory. Topics discussed include: * Chemical,
biological, radiological, and nuclear threats encountered by CSIs
and other personnel * Laws, regulations, and standards that apply
to working in a hazardous environment * Equipment for personal
protection and evidence recovery * Roles and responsibilities of
personnel on the scene * Collecting, processing, and documenting
evidence * Decontamination of the scene High consequence events
(HCEs) have increased in recent years as terrorism and natural
disasters have dominated the headlines. Enhanced with nearly 300
color photos, this one-stop reference supplies practical
information to keep CSIs, first responders, HAZMAT technicians,
incident commanders, and military and intelligence officials safe
from the hazards they may encounter on the job.
