Understanding where your ancestor is living at a given time can be a loaded question—and to answer it completely, you need to know the broader geo-political and historical context. And as records are most often arranged by place, the “where” becomes especially important for family historians. In this webinar, Genealogist Hallie Borstel will demonstrate how to research boundary changes and understand jurisdictional levels using maps, primary and secondary sources, and other records.
This syllabus is intended to accompany our webinar “Where?: Understanding Boundaries and Jurisdictions” (archived recording as of 11/18: https://www.americanancestors.org/watch). It includes the key information covered in the session, plus several additional resources and weblinks.
