Using Fire Insurance Maps in Family History Research
Where's the Fire? Using Fire Insurance Maps in Family History Research -
August 9, 10 a.m. - 12 p.m. Fire insurance maps were originally produced
for the insurance underwriting industry, providing detailed information
about a city or town's individual buildings. These maps remain a
valuable resource for family history research. This program, given by
map specialist Leigh
Darbee, will include an overview history of fire insurance maps; a
survey of how they are used today; a description of how they can be used
specifically for family history research; detailed information about how
to use and interpret them; and information on how to get access to them,
including via online resources. Cost to attend is $10; $5 members. To
