Genealogical
Research

1. Only limited genealogical research
requests can be serviced by Archival Center staff and costs for such
assistance are subject to fees as stated in the Policy Governing Research
Requests. |
|
| |
2. Genealogical research requests that
are extensive have to be serviced through the engagement of a professional
genealogical researcher. Names of such qualified persons can be obtained
by placing an inquiry with the Southern California Genealogical Society,
Post Office Box 4377, Burbank, California, 91503. |
|
| |
3. The Archives of the Archdiocese of Los Angeles does not certify
genealogical data for any reason. Such certification has to be provided
by a professional genealogist retained by the individual(s) seeking
verifiable genealogical data. |
|
| |
4. Searchers are encouraged to check
the two volumes by Marie Northrup on the sacraments performed at the
California missions. She was a meticulous scholar whose books have
withstood the passage of time. Those titles are: |
|
| |
Spanish-Mexican Families of Early California:
1769-1850 - Volume One
Spanish-Mexican Families of Early California: 1769-1850 - Volume
Two
|
|
| |
Those books are published by the Southern
California Genealogical Society in Burbank, California. |
|
| |
5. Portions of the sacramental
register books of the California Missions are on file at the Archival
Center. Individuals conducting genealogical research may view these
materials by appointment. A complete listing of the materials on file
may be found under Sacramental Records. |
