What: SEMINAR ON NATURALIZATION RESEARCH When: Part 1: Sunday, February 13, 2005 at 2:00 P.M. (1:30 Registration) Part 2: Sunday, March 13, 2005 at 2:00 P.M. (1:30 Registration) Where: Gulf Coast Jewish Family Services, 14041 Icot Blvd., Clearwater, Florida Cost: Members free; Non-members $25; Members of other JGS's $15 Membership dues waived if you become a member when you register for the seminar. $10 charged per course booklet (One booklet can be shared by a couple) This two-part seminar is a continuation of our annual seminar series by our resident expert, Dr. Emil Isaacson. Emil is a capable and experienced genealogical researcher who puts a great deal of time and effort into preparing his very comprehensive presentations. This one will consist of approximately 200 slides (that are included in the course booklet). This seminar is aimed at an intermediate level, but beginners are welcome and will benefit from the presentation. If you really want to know how to research naturalization records, this is a must-attend seminar. The naturalization records of your ancestors can help in establishing their roots in the old country. Unfortunately the tangled web of naturalization laws, the multitude of judicial jurisdictions, and the scattered location of germane records make the search for these documents difficult and frustrating. This two-part course is designed to reduce the mystery and confusion and to improve the chances of a successful search. A brief history of the laws and of governmental entities involved in naturalization processes will be presented, and a logical progression for finding actual records of interest will be demonstrated. Special emphasis will be given to the use of Internet resources and to those available in the JGSTB library. To register, or for more information, call Sally Israel at 727-343-1652 or Mark Baron at 727-842-5789. Advance registration will ensure that sufficient books are printed and available at the seminar. Paid members and those pre-registered will have first priority. |
