Land records contain a wealth of genealogical information and can be useful at any stage of your research. Using records like these, you can learn when your ancestors first came to Florida, find out what they did for a living or maybe even track down their old home.
Join Matthew Storey, an archivist at the State Archives of Florida, for an overview of using land documents for family history research. Matthew is experienced in using land documents to answer several types of questions and will share some tips on what kinds of records are available, where you can find them and how the State Archives can support your research.
