As we celebrate America’s Semiquincentennial (250 years) and soon Texas’ bicentennial (200 years), we also honor local and family history. Join the French Legation State Historic Site Educators in the third session of our Genealogy Research series: Reading and Interpreting Genealogy Sources. Learn how to access, read, and utilize primary sources like U.S. census records with tips and tricks that can prepare you for your own genealogy research. Reading and Interpreting Genealogy Sources will feature a short presentation on accessing and reading online primary sources as well as a demonstration of genealogy research using the longest owners of the French Legation, the Robertsons', family tree!
