Extractions: Bernardo de Gálvez was born in Macharaviaya, among the mountains of Málaga, Spain on July 23, 1746. His birth date is celebrated as Gálvez Day in a few cities across the United States and has been recognized as a day of commemoration by individuals and state congresses.

Like many in his distinguished family, he chose a military career. By the age of 16, he was serving as a lieutenant in a war with Portugal, which led to his promotion to captain. In 1769, he was selected for service in New Spain. There he led attacks against the Apache, who were crippling the new Spanish economy in that part of the Americas. In the next few years, he was wounded several times but also found honor and recognition in his service.

Extractions: Franklin Delano Roosevelt took the helm as president in 1933, while the United States was engulfed in the Great Depression. As soon as he took office, he began pushing through legislation that would become the nation's largest relief programthe Work Projects Administration (WPA). The WPA was later renamed the Works Progress Administration. The WPA provided much-needed jobs for millions of out-of-work Americans. Its legacy to family historians is a wealth of information in the form of indexes, bibliographies, inventories, life histories, photographs, artwork, and other historical materials. While some of these projects are fairly well-known, such as the Soundex Index to the U.S. Federal Censuses (1880, 1900, 1910, and 1920), and Soundex Indexes to Naturalization Petitions in several regions of the country, many of the projects were smaller and may have escaped the attention of many researchers. There are several bibliographies that may be of use to family historians, some of which I located using the LDS Family History Library Catalog online at the FamilySearch site at:
