Program Description

Event Details

Join the genealogy club and Debra M. Dudek for More than Money and Land- The Evolution of Bounty Land, Military Pensions and Alternative Records Documenting Services. Bounty land applications and military pensions are useful resources for anyone with a male ancestor of military service age. Learn how laws concerning compensation changed over time, how to request records to explore your family's connection to smaller military campaigns and conflicts dating from 1820-1916.

This group meets on the second Tuesday of each month at 6 pm. Learn about using different online databases, breaking through “brick walls,” obtaining vital records, and documenting and organizing your family research. Come share your family research success stories and continue to increase the “branches” on your family tree!
