Historical Property Search Education Session
County Auditor David Thomas to Host Historical Property Search Education Session
Jefferson- Ashtabula County Auditor David Thomas announced an upcoming education session focused on historical research and tools from the Auditor’s Office residents can use. This Lunch & Learn session will be held on Thursday, July 28th from noon to 1pm at the Jefferson Community Center or on Zoom Webinar (click here for Zoom registration).
Auditor staff members Heidi Barringer and Deb Mohney along with Real Estate Manager Dennis Huey will walk attendees through the steps of searching the history of residential properties. “Our staff have a wealth of knowledge on historical research that can be very useful for interested residents,” shared Auditor David Thomas. “If you are interested in history and are curious where best to begin, our office can get you started.”
Other topics will include information on where to look up property transfer records, historical tax records, changes in property structures, important dates in the life of a property, where to find other records, examples of successful historical searches, and much more.
While Thomas says that some information is not available from the Auditor’s Office, “we can get you started or point you in the best direction to begin your search.”
RSVPS are required and limited to the first 30 respondents due to space constraints. Please contact Auditor David Thomas to save your seat at 440-576-3785 or djthomas@ashtabulacounty.us. Respondents will also be asked what specific historical search questions or goals they have so that the session will be best tailored to those in attendance.
