Join us to learn how you can investigate the history of your house, with Candice Buchanan, Reference Librarian for the Local History and Genealogy Section Department of the Library of Congress.

Investigating the history of your house is a great way to learn about the history of the place where you live. House history research has much in common with genealogy, or family history, research. Like families, in fact, houses and buildings tell many stories, depending on where you look. This presentation will explore how to utilize the tools readily available to assist in starting your journey to explore the history of your home.
