“Indexes Are The Key To Unlocking The Records” by Christine Cohen
Indexes make your searches so much easier, but what if you are lost on how to use the index? Indexing systems are so complex that they require guides, keys, or tables to decipher. We will review and master these indexes: Burr Record, Campbell, Cott System, Liber Index, Page Margin Key Tables, Paul Company Key Table, Russell Key Index, Split Column Indexes, Soundex and Vowel Index. They are often the essential key to locating ancestors in Probate or Land records online or at a courthouse.
Christine Cohen’s interest in genealogy began in 1977 with the airing of the TV mini-series “Roots” and was further piqued when she found a typed pedigree chart of her Dutch heritage from the New Netherlands in the 1660’s. A native Californian, Christine is a graduate of UCLA in Political Science. She has worked for a major jet fuel company since 1993.
Christine is a long-time member of the Whittier Area Genealogical Society (WAGS), and has served in many capacities, including President. She is a member of the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution, the Society of Daughters of Holland Dames and the Association of Professional Genealogists.
She has given presentations throughout the United States both in-person and virtually. More information may be found on her website: https://christinecohengenealogy.com/.
