The Midwestern items in the current NGS Magazine include some examples in my evidence article and Carol Cooke Darrow's "Why was Joseph Gosling buried in Ann Arbor?" which reveals an unusual Michigan source for researchers.
Some other articles of methodological interest in this issue:
Jessica Albert's "Using OCR to search city directories by address" (applicable only to on-line images);
John P. Deeben on using unit records of combat organizations to overcome WWI veterans' record loss;
Claire Prechtel-Kluskens on innovative ways of using Soundex codes in searching; and
Robert Erland's case study of researching an unknown frequent witness on known relatives' records.
