Upcoming Monday Evening Webinar
Live Webinar / Nov. 6, 2023 – 7:00 to 8:00 pm
Topic: Tax Records: More Exciting Than You Might Think
Guest Speaker: Annette Burke Lyttle
Description: Tax records can help us locate our ancestors in place and time. They can tie our ancestors to land or confirm for us that an ancestor did not own land. They can help us follow ancestral migrations and separate same-named persons. Sometimes they can help us pinpoint a death date or timeframe. Tax records can act as censuses between the censuses. The variety of taxes levied by governments at all levels has left a rich record of our ancestors' lives and their sometimes-changing fortunes.
Presenter Info: Annette Burke Lyttle owns Heritage Detective, LLD, providing professional genealogical services in research, education and writing. She speaks on a variety of genealogical topics at the international, national, state, and local levels, and loves helping people uncover and share their family stories. She is president of VGS, president of the Association of Professional Genealogists, and editor of The Florida Genealogist.
