Program Description

Event Details

The Sanborn Map Company published many detailed maps of cities and towns around the United States in the 19th and 20th centuries. Using them, in conjunction with other sources, can help tell the stories of your ancestors and give you a picture of what their living conditions and communities were like during the time that they resided there. Professional genealogist Jeanette Sheliga (https://jeanettesgenealogy.com/) shows you how to get the most out of this invaluable resource.
