I wrapped up a beginning genealogy class last week. One of the records sources we discussed were local court records. These materials are full of genealogical information. Yet many genealogists do not use them because they are frequently only available in their original paper form and have minimal indexes. Do not limit yourself. Local court records (divorce, estate fights, bastardry, etc.)  involving your family could provide more information than you ever dreamed of. ———————————— Check out GenealogyBank’s Offer for Tip of the Day Fans!
