In
Hands-on with Land sessions, we share discoveries, issues, strategies, and participant examples. The focus of the November 1 sessions is locating and gaining access to original indexes and records. A variety of strategies will be shared at the 11 am lecture.
During the hands-on sessions, participants will find ancestral land records online or learn how to access them from afar. Topics explored include:
- County boundary changes and their effect on locating records
- Availability of Hamilton County land records and indexes both online and at the Recorder's office
- Federal land record availability with a specific emphasis on the issues faced researching Hamilton County warrantees and patentees
