    2. Sheila Ruiz Harrell
    3. Thanks Cathy, I think this was a residential area in 1927 as it is now. I was hoping to find a sanitarium/sanitorium in that general area. We don't have a clue as to why she would be at that address alone, other than in a "home" for TB patients. Ahhhhh, mysteries!

Sponsor: Southern California Genealogy Jamboree and the Southern California Genealogical Society Date: Saturday, March 3, 2012 Time: 60 minute class, 30 minute Q&A 10:00 AM - Pacific 11:00 AM - Mountain 12:00 PM - Central 1:00 PM - Eastern Space is limited, so reserve your Webinar seat now at: https://www1.gotomeeting.com/register/475214392 The overall goal of the lecture is to give attendees a broad overview to finding the origins of their Irish ancestors. The lecture will start with the central event in the history of Irish genealogy, the destruction of the Public records Office in Dublin on June 30, 1922 near the end of the Irish Civil War. As a result unique challenges and realistic expectations for Irish ancestral research will be discussed. Existing vital records and census records, along with unique census substitutes for 19th century Ireland, will be presented. Research materials available on-line and through film rental will be shown with examples available without the time and expense necessary to travel to Ireland. This presentation will look at a variety of ways to organize information with the intent on noticing information and trends that were not obvious, preparing the researcher to present their information to others, and assisting the researching in seeing gaps in their research. Note that Irish Protestants and resources and record repositories in Ireland will not be covered.
