SUMMARY:Local Native American Historical & Genealogical
DESCRIPTION:Questions regarding indigenous tribes of North Texas and relate
 d genealogical resources are some of more popular inquiries received at th
 e Allen Public Library. My response to these callers are “Which century? L
 ate prehistoric? Earlier or later?”  Accurate answers require multiple que
 stions. \nIn addition\, DNA test kits have afforded people opportunities t
 o explore their Native American heritage.  And this in turn\, leads to eve
 n more questions. \nBrandon Murray\, Librarian/Archivist\, Dallas History
  and Archives at J. Erik Jonsson Library\, will discuss available material
 s at 7:30 p.m. Thursday\, April 24 at Allen Christian Church\, 450 E. St.
  Mary Dr.   \nBrandon explains\, “The Dallas Public Library has a number o
 f notable resources to help with researching Native American history and g
 enealogy\, including free access to FamilySearch.org and AncestryLibrary\,
  available at all DPL branches. We provide wide-ranging access to Native A
 merican records as well as the Dallas Morning News  database. \nIn additio
 n\, the J. Erik Jonsson Central Library's Dallas History & Archives and Ge
 nealogy & History Divisions have unique resources between them such as his
 torical photographs\, newspapers (including the complete run of the Dallas
  Times Herald  on microfilm)\, clipping files\, a collection of history bo
 oks on many topics\, and maps of Dallas\, the State of Texas\, and of the

 d to provide reference assistance in navigating these materials." \nSponso
