Genealogy of a Neighborhood: Urban & Rural

  • Presenter: Mary Risseeuw
  • Date: Tuesday, April 18, 2023
  • Time: 7:00 PM Central
  • Webinar Description: When your search for family (immediate and extended) hits a wall, or when you want to fill in blanks and move beyond the names and dates into stories, it’s time to search the ‘neighborhood.’ Through the use of city directories, plat maps, census records, population registers, cemetery records, ship passenger lists, and other record sources, you can cast a wider net and create a more complex study.  This methodology is about broadening your search and your concept of your ancestors place in their community. Examples used are an extended family in multiple counties in Wisconsin.
