Criminal Court research strategies

Tomorrow, Family Tree University is hosting The Legal Genealogist in a one-hour webinar presentation: Using Criminal Court Records — Research Strategies from The Legal Genealogist.

Playing in the records of the bad boys (and girls) hanging from the branches of our family trees are about the most fun you can have in genealogy — even if you don’t have a bad guy in your family yourself. Chances are, somebody in your family knew that bad guy — maybe as a witness, as a juror, as a jailer, police officer or judge.

We’ll take a look at a whole range of records created after a crime was committed, from police reports to prison records and beyond. Here’s a teaser — not the real thing, just to whet your appetite:

So come on out and join me on tomorrow, Tuesday, the 11th of December, at 7 pm EST / 6 pm CST / 5 pm MST / 4 pm PST, for Using Criminal Court Records — Research Strategies from The Legal Genealogist. Like all of the Family Tree University webinars, advance registration is required (it’s $49.99).
