Every house has a history! If you've always wanted to investigate the history of your house, here is the opportunity to learn how to do that.
Ridge Historical Society researcher Tim Blackburn, owner of a historic home in Morgan Park, will present "Discover the History of Your Chicago Home" on Saturday, January 28, at 2:00 p.m. at the Ridge Historical Society, 10621 S. Seeley Avenue, Chicago.
Tim will guide you through the process of locating building permits and other records about the property itself, as well as share research tools to learn about past owners.
Attendees of Tim's programs can then join a private RHS Facebook page for continued discussion and advice on research projects.
The cost of the program is $10 for RHS members and $15 for non-members.
