Seminar in Houston 28 October 2000

If you live in South East Texas - and within a
couple of hour's drive of Houston - The Houston
Genealogical Forum invites you to its all day Genealogy
Seminar on Saturday, 28 October 2000, in Houston near
the Houston Medical Center. The seminar will feature a
nationally recognized genealogy lecturer who will be
discussing the following topics;

"MY ANCESTOR'S DEAD - WHERE DID THE MONEY GO?"

1.) CLUES CONTAINED IN PROBATE RECORDS

2.) POST-DEATH COURT RECORDS OTHER THAN PROBATE

3.) SEARCHING AND MAKING EFFECTIVE USE OF PROBATE RECORDS

4.) WHERE DO I GO FROM HERE?

Each lecture lasts approximately one hour, with a
30 minute break between each one. During the break,
attendees can browse the vendor area where up to a dozen
vendors of genealogical material will be displaying their
large collections of maps, reference books, record abstracts
from around the U.S.A., software, aids, etc. There will be a
90 minute break for lunch and vendor shopping.
The seminar begins at 9:00a and continues through
until 4:30p. However, the vendor area will open at 8:00a
