October 6th meeting: Court Records!

October 6th:
Please join us for a discussion on Court Records.  Angela Pendleton (that's me!) will lead the conversation on what you can find at the local court house like Marriage Licenses, Death Certificates, Wills, Deeds and more! She will also share with you some of the gems that may be hiding in your local court house.

Have you ever had an eureka moment at the courthouse? Have you found anything surprising or special while you were researching court records? Please share your story and show us what you found after the Court Records discussion. (I can't wait to tell you about the crazy way I found a deed to my great grandmother's property!)

Angela is the Judicial Supervisor for the Clerk of Superior Court in Clayton County Georgia.

Don't forget to check out Selma and Vicki's blogs over there -->
and sign up to follow by email to get updates on our future meetings.

Next month: I'm dying to get it done! A death defying workshop on November 3rd.

Thank you Trish Fields for our discussion on USGenweb

As a new part of the blog, I decided to write about our classes for those members who were unable to attend. This month, Selma beat me to the punch, and has already published an article on the examiner for the class we had this past Sunday where Trish Fields led a discussion on USGenweb.
Therefore, I encourage you to check out Selma's post on the Examiner at http://www.examiner.com/article/genealogy-spotlight-usgenweb-project

I also have links to two of Selma's blogs on Our Genealogy Group page here on the right. Along with Vicki's blogs and one of mine. If you have a genealogy related blog and would like to share it with our members, let me know and I will add the link here.

I look forward to seeing you all on October 6th were I will lead a discussion on what you can find at the local court house. More details to come later.
