IGHR 2025 Virtual Institute

Course 13 - Walking in Penn’s Woods: Pennsylvania Research

If you want to know more about the lives of your Pennsylvania ancestors, join us for five days of digging deeper into the wealth of resources that await you in Penn’s Woods. The course will focus on commonly used record types. There will be hands-on exercises in class and optional homework assignments. Students will need a desktop computer, laptop, or tablet to use for the in-class exercises and homework assignments.

This course is for intermediate researchers who are not familiar with the idiosyncrasies of Pennsylvania records. Students are expected to have some experience with original records such as deeds and probate files.
