This presentation will cover the most commonly used records in genealogy research while also delving into lesser-known resources that can significantly aid in uncovering your family tree. Among these overlooked tools are Pauper Records, Legislative Petitions, Apprentice Indentures, City Directories, and Enrolled Bills, all of which offer unique insights into the lives of your ancestors.
Presented by Maria Myer.
