Pleasanton CA Family History Expo
Alameda County Fairgrounds, 4501 Pleasanton Ave, Pleasanton CA 94566.
Sponsored by Family History Expos.
Topics:
Land and Property Records-Part I: Southern Land Records: State-by-State. Consider: when the courthouse burns, how do you prove father-son relationship? Since 393 Southern courthouses have suffered loss of records from fire, flood, storm, chaos or destruction of war, and official carelessness, how do you prove a pedigree? Property ownership is of sufficient importance to every level of jurisdiction, and always has been that essential, property records make up the most consistent, most reliable, most provable record category of all.
Part II: Little-Known and Under-Used Land and Property Records. If you have been seeking your hard-to-find ancestor for 15-20 years-its time you had an "easy button." Searching the same records other researchers have checked, hoping for a different answer usually doesn't work. Learn about property sources and records that others before you have not used. For the first time, solve your research problems.
How to Trace the Common Man Through Congressional Records. The Constitution guarantees all American citizens the right to petition the government for help in time of need. Our ancestors exercised this right frequently; we seldom do. Examination of petitions and their accompanying papers in detail: military pensions, bounty awards, American Indian rights, alien lists, court documents, and many more. Prove Revolutionary service, identify migration patterns, and learn names of re-married women on your pedigree.
Evaluation and Analysis of Genealogical Evidence. Or, how do I prove my records are correct? Collecting, compiling, matching evidence so your records are both documented and proven. Resolve discrepancies, document family traditions, by-pass record-source failure, and use "slips of the tongue" evidence wisely. |
