Casefile Clues issue off to be proofed...
Casefile Clues
Nothing fancy, but to help organize some land transactions in an index, I color coded them. http://www.casefileclues.com/2009/11/gro

I'm usually not one to use highlighters to organize, but this time I made an exception. I had an index showing several transactions on a lot in Chicago for Elizabeth and Thomas Frame.
Casefile Clues This week's column discusses my initial groundwork in hiring someone to help with my Frame-Apgar-DeMar problem in Chicago, including a few of the mistakes I made along the way (of course, they were done for illustration purposes.....)
Casefile Clues Finalizing this week's column before it goes to proofing....
Casefile Clues Initial deadline for my annual group Salt Lake City Research trip is fast approaching http://www.rootdig.com/slctrip.html
Casefile Clues Have all the deeds where Barbara (from last week's "Barbara's Lots") obtained her property and where her daughter who bought out the heirs sold it. Now to compare all those legal descriptions. Also have a complete copy of the survey plat. Tax records are located in another location and are on my "to do" list.
Tina Sansone Look forward to many more Casefile Clues! Tina

Casefile Clues is Michael John Neill's weekly how-to genealogy column. Casefile Clues is not copied and pasted text from other articles or press-releases. Rather, it is fresh material drawn from Michael's own research experiences in nearly twenty states and seven foreign countries. ...
Casefile Clues Readers--one question: The initial research survey for the Frame-Apgar-DeMar problem indicated the mother (when her husband was alive) appears to be the purchaser of real estate (and the lead name on the mortgage). Is there interest in finding out "why?" It's not a part of my original "plan," but I'll modify if there's interest in trying to see what was going on there.
Casefile Clues Researcher working with me on the Frame-Apgar-DeMar problem are close to finalizing just what we're going to have her research for me. Part of the problem is staying focused on the goal (and my budget). Her initial survey revealed some interesting things about the mother that really won't help me tie the son to the parents more concretely or tell me where the son was after 1918. One has to stay focused.....
Casefile Clues My researcher helping me with the Frame-Apgar-DeMar problem was doing a preliminary search and discovered a death certificate recorded in a book of what are apparently "miscellenous" recordings in the Recorder's Office. We were hoping for name change for William Frame Apgar and instead found duplicate copy of a brother's death cert. Never know what they will record in those miscellaneous volumes.

Casefile Clues Was just reading through the receipts of the Barbara Haase estate (looking for signatures to post on my blog) and discovered that the property tax receipt has a different description of Barbara's property than does the inventory and the quitclaim deeds. Just the east half of the south 2/3 of block ten--DARN.

Here is a snapshot of the image from Barbara's estate settlement that got me going on how her home left her estate after her death http://www.casefileclues.com/2009/11/rea
