Land records (especially deeds) often give the name of a spouse, heir, other relatives, or other clues to help research. They often have other clues for further research, such as witnesses or the other parties who may be relatives or in-laws.

Land records include: deeds, abstracts and indexes, mortgages, leases, grants and land patents. After land was transferred to private ownership, deeds were usually recorded at the county courthouse. See Washington Land and Property for additional information.

  1. "F.A.N. Club" stands for Family, Associates, and Neighbors. Anyone associated with your ancestor could be a relative, and THEIR records may provide YOUR answers. The term was first coined by Elizabeth Shown Mills in 2002.
