Fruit of the Earth, Using Deeds to Uncover Your Ancestors, Part II

Deeds are one of genealogy’s most trusted and voluminous record sets, and they offer a wealth of insights into our ancestors' lives and the communities they called home. However, the complexity of legal terminology and the misconception that deeds are only useful for land-owning ancestors often deters researchers from fully utilizing these records. Part two of this two part webinar provides multiple examples illustrating how deeds can reveal intricate family relationships, migration patterns, and economic circumstances. Examples also include:

-Slavery Research
-Sharecropping/Tenant Farming
-Community Research & Social History
