Magnificent Land Records and Where to Find Them

Land records are an important piece of any genealogical puzzle, especially in years that pre-date census records and vital records.  We will review the various types of land records that are typically held in a courthouse. This is a hybrid meeting. Plan to join us in person, or online if you are unable to be with us in person. A link for the virtual meeting will be posted a week in advance.
