Why research a the history of an old house? You may think that you don't need to research a property because you have a new house, but your ancestors didn't. By researching the property of an older resident you may surprisingly break through a brick wall.


Waxahahachie is know as the  Gingerbread City because of the large number of historic homes. This class is designed to assist you in learning how to research the history of your old home. We will use a Waxahachie historic property as a teaching tool.


If you own a property that was built before 1940, bring your information and I will attempt to help you learn the ancestry of your house.
