“Land Records”
Presented by: Lisa Medina
Genealogy often feels like time travel – and what is travel without an understanding of the place or a study of the land? This presentation provides context for the value of land records in genealogical research, as well as the historical background of land acquisition and distribution in the United States. Woven throughout the presentation are examples of land records and repositories helpful to research in the U.S.
About the speaker: Lisa Medina is an enthusiastic and experienced lecturer who brings together the stories and methodologies of genealogy with the effective strategies of a teacher in her presentations. She has experience researching in several U.S. states, as well as the Mexican states of Jalisco, Nuevo León, Chihuahua, Sonora and Sinaloa. Lisa has attended the Salt Lake Institute of Genealogy and is a ProGen alum.
