Genealogy Club (Virtual): Using Real Estate Deeds Online
Real estate deeds can be a gold mine of information about our ancestors, yet researchers often forget to check them. While the search process can initially seem daunting, once you figure out which indexing system a particular town or county is using, it’s not so bad. Learn how to tell a grantor from a grantee. What are metes and bounds? Which parts of a deed are boilerplate phrases that you can safely skim over? What can you learn about family relationships from deeds?
Learn all this and more from Al Fiacre, Godfrey Library’s Board Chair and Senior Researcher.
