The
California State Archives is a rich resource for researching family history.
Join us for an exciting and productive field trip to the State Archives in
Sacramento on June 13, 2017 at 10:00am. The Field Trip will include a tour of
the Archives and time to do your own research. It's also free for members. Register here.
What's there?
The State Archives contain microfilmed copies and original records from 28 of
California's counties including probate, deeds, military, prison, and
naturalization records, as well as many state collections of interest to
genealogists.
What to expect
This tour
involves walking up and down one flight of stairs and about a mile on
concrete. No food, beverages, bags, purses, or backpacks are allowed on
the tour. You can lock your personal belongings in the lockers at the Archives.
You may bring a camera on the tour, but flash photography is not allowed. Those
who wish to do research may do so by appointment prior to the tour.
Getting there
There is
limited metered parking and a city-parking garage at the corner of 10th and L
Streets. Transportation will be by casual carpool. It is about 1 ½ hour drive
from CGS in Oakland. CGS cannot provide the transportation.
What are you waiting for? Sign-up for this fun day of genealogy!
