Texas Research Essentials

Research in early Texas has its own unique issues. The Spanish and Mexican legal systems are quite different from the British common law system found in early America: social/family customs of these early settlers differed as well. Successful genealogical research during this time period will depend on the researcher’s awareness of these differences and knowledge of both systems. Learn how to apply methodology to Texas records while looking at the distinctive aspects of researching Texas records and applying techniques necessary to maximize your results.

Seating is limited to 50 participants, so register early! If you are unable to register because a course is full, you may join the waiting list. You will be notified if space becomes available.

Advanced Southern Research Techniques

Hone your skills in southern research with a focus on methodology, records, and migration patterns. Many southern states did not capture vital records in the 19th century, so researchers need to examine other records for those critical facts. Join us as we examine the records of the South, learning how, when and where to employ these tools to expand the profile and details of our ancestors and their neighbors. A sample set of records from each Southern state will be provided and used for study and comparison. Changes in boundaries, laws, and attitudes will show migration choices and explain many reasons for the push and pull that motivated our ancestors to move.  Learn how records can take stories beyond “Once upon a time…”

Seating is limited to 50 participants, so register early! If you are unable to register because a course is full, you may join the waiting list. You will be notified if space becomes available.
