Family History Roundtable Series: Dowered or Bound Out: Records of Widows and Orphans

Dawn DiAngelo, Neighbor

Orphans and widows have always had a special place in the law, but its not always in the place that 21st century researchers might expect.  Lawyer and genealogist Judy Russell will discuss how the law treated widows and orphans and what the records might tell about them.  For further information please contact the library at 631-567-5079 or visit our website at www.connetquotlibrary.org.
