Glenda Gardner Lloyd will be presenting two classes:

Census records: Census records are the backbone of American genealogy. They place your family in a location every ten years from 1790 to 1930. Later census show family relatonships, year of immigration, naturalization and many many other clues to suggest further research.

Vital records: Birth, marriage and death records are the foundation for your genealogical records. These records may be at the state, county or town level; each level of jurisdiction should be searched. Some of these records are available online.
