Some of the Team Treasuries have already made it to the first page of the Etsy Treasury Section.  This helps all of the Etsy Pickers and Sellers.  It is great to support your team mates.

William & Cora Beam


The William F. Beam Family.

William F. Beam is found in the Brown Township, Knox County, Ohio 1880 Census in his father's household.  William F. Beam is the son of Casper Beam who was born about 1829 in Germany.  In the 1880 census Casper was working as a carpenter. By 1900 William Beam has married Sarah 1873 - 1959.  William and Sarah are living in Pike Township, Knox County, Ohio in 1900, and William is working as a teacher.  The 1910 Census also Shows William Beam working as a teacher and living in Pike Township, Knox County, Ohio.  In 1910 William and Sarah have three children with two living and listed as Leonard and Beatrice.

The William Beam family had relocated to Madison Township, Richland County, Ohio by 1920.  William, Sarah and the two children are listed and William is listed as a teacher. The 1930 Census reveals William and Sarah have become empty nesters as they are listed as the only two people in the house and William is still working as a rural school teacher.

Etsy Apps

     Let me start of by saying team Epsteam had a wonderful Treasury night on Etsy last evening.  It is nice to feel the community though we are all from very different towns and cities.  The treasuries I created, generated over 800 clicks for 32 items of my Epsteam teammates.  It is great to do something nice as a group for each other.

     Today I am learning about Etsy Apps.  I did not realize they existed until I saw a shop that had prices with a line through them and the discounted price show.  This looked very nice and when I could not find information about this feature on the Etsy help site, I turned to the Etsy Help Team.  I used a key word search within the Team's discussions and found that the sale feature was an Etsy app from an outside company.

     Etsy on Sale was the name of the app I was looking for.  I have not yet tested the app I will let you know more later.  I have actually been to busy activating other apps.  I just created a coupon using NerdWallet a wonderful active coupon facility featuring independent businesses from all over the web.

http://www.nerdwallet.com/coupons/indie/

My new coupon there when finished will be here

http://www.nerdwallet.com/coupons/store/familytreeantiques

I will post comments on this post as I go through the Etsy apps if I find anything exciting or useful.

     Etsywishlist seems to be the next interesting app I have found.  It allows you to make a wishlist of items you want people to buy for you or for yourself to buy in the future.  This also allows you to favorite as much as you like and have a more select purchase list here.

It turns out after some time, The Nerdwallet is a much better app than the etsywishlist so far for me.

Etsy Teams

Another aspect of selling on Etsy is joining Teams.  Teams serve functions helping others selling in the same category or geographical region. 

The Epsteam (Etsy Pickers & Sellers) has an annual get together on Friday Nights where we make Treasuries to promote each other's items. I made two treasuries and as of a few minutes ago one of my was on the 5th page of overall most trending Etsy Treasuries.

Boys Hunting Rabbit
One of my favorite Charles H. Shader Photographs

I will get back to you but the boy holding the Rabbits is named ____ Turner, and the boy pointing the gun is Charles H. Shader's son Henry Shader.

This original 1903 copy of this Photograph is posted for Sale on my Etsy page.  I do have another original mounted of this wonderful photograph to keep in my collection.

Please View This Item in the Link below and don't forget to look at the rest of the items in FamilyTreeAntiques Etsy store.

I have been learning about Treasuries on Etsy this evening.  A team I am included in called Epsteam or Etsy Pickers and Sellers hosts a team activity on Friday night where members can learn about the Treasury.  I made two treasuries for this team and one treasury for another team I joined this evening that is focused on the Treasury.

I like the idea of the Treasury, promote others who are selling on Etsy.  It is like Karma for Business.
