SUMMARY:Forgotten Family: Pauper Records and Genealogy at the Delaware
  Public Archives
DESCRIPTION:The Delaware Public Archives offers a treasure trove of ge
 nealogical resources\, including centuries of vital records\, wills\, 
 deeds\, and more. Yet\, many researchers inevitably face frustrating d
 ead ends\, where a family member seems to vanish without a trace—no bi
 rth record\, no property records\, no will or probate. How can we unco
 ver the stories of these seemingly forgotten individuals?\n\nPauper re
 cords provide invaluable insights for filling these gaps\, documenting
  the lives of those most often overlooked by history: the poor\, illeg
 itimate children\, unwed mothers\, and others marginalized by society.
  This presentation will explore the evolution of public welfare and po
 or relief in Delaware\, the types of pauper records available to genea
 logists\, and how to access these important resources through the Dela
 ware Public Archives.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPresented by: Joe Sullivan\, Dela
