Come and hear Susie presenting at the VAFHO Family History Expo in Sale at 11.15 am, Saturday 21st April 2018.

Title:  Victorian Land Titles and Documents

Precis:  When looking for Land Titles and researching land ownership should you start at the beginning, the end, or somewhere in between?

Land titles span Old Law Titles – between 1837 and 2 October 1862 – and New Law / Torrens Title after that.  But not all Old Law titles have been converted to Torrens Titles.

Susie’s presentation will help you:

• Decide where to start
• How to move from old to new and new to old Land Titles
• Where to find the primary records
• Where to find the secondary records.
