Christine Crawford-Oppenheimer (au)
The published “Pennsylvania Archives” (PA) can be an intimidating reference source for the genealogical researcher. Its 138 vol. fill several library stacks. Yet the researcher who does look for ancestors in them may find rich veins of info., gaining clues about where his ancestor was & what the ancestor was doing at different times in his or her life. This article, reprinted from the “Penna. Genealogical Mag.” & is intended to demystify PA & give researchers the confidence to delve into it. Discuss what types of documents the various series of PA contain, the best order to work through them to obtain the most results quickly, & routes to follow to locate a set of PA. Includes a chart summarizing each volume’s contents & indexing. (Philadelphia: Genealogical Society of Pennsylvania, 1999)
