Discovering Your Home's Story: First Steps In-Person

Who built your home? When and why did they build it? What families called it home before you, and what were their lives like? Every home, no matter how modest or grand, has a story to tell, and it's likely hiding in plain sight.

Join April Pereyra, professional property historian, and learn how to peel back the layers of history and discover your home's story. Using a local house as a real-world example, April will show you how to mine local land records, online newspaper archives, library collections, and more to uncover the life your home had before you arrived.
