DESCRIPTION:In-person & Virtual Event \n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpecial Meeting LocationOur December meeting will be held at the Dallas Public Library White Rock Hills Branch!\n\n\n\nSpeaker: Kevin Klaus \n\n\n\nTopic: Genealogy Research at the Texas General Land Office \n\n\n\nThe Texas General Land Office provides a wealth of information to genealogists and family history buffs. Kevin will walk through how to use the tools on the Texas GLO website\, using a number of examples from the Texas Court of Claims and other rich resources from the site. \n\n\n\nJoin the meeting via Zoom anytime after 10:30 am (US Central Time). \n\n\n\n\nJOIN THE CALL\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout Kevin \n\n\n\nKevin Klaus developed a love of history from an early age listening to stories told by his Great Grandparents and Grandparents who grew up in East Texas. Over the past 30 years he has collected and researched his own family\, using government records\, letters\, photographs\, family Bible information\, and stories. Beginning in 1990\, he served eight years in the United States Army. In 1998 honorably discharged from the Army in New Mexico\, and returned home to Central Texas where he grew up. Kevin has a background in Anthropology\, Archaeology\, and Public History from the University of New Mexico\, and currently working towards becoming a certified genealogist. For the last 14 years he has served as one of the lead researchers in the Texas General Land Office Archives and Records Program Area. During his time at the Land Office he has searched the early Court of Claims files\, German Collection and archival collection to learn more about the history of Texas and discover the amazing collection of personal letters of early soldiers and pioneers who helped settle our great state. \n\n\n\nOver the last few years he has focused his attention and research on the German Collection and the early German settlers that came to Texas under the Adelsverein in the 1840’s. In the process he has honed his research skills by tracing his own family line that came to America in the late 1800’s. This research is ongoing as he is still sleuthing records in Germany to discover the history of past lives.
