MCGS is lucky to have Joe speak to us about land records. He has researched historical land records in all of New Jersey’s 21 counties and in other states. Joe is one of only a few dozen individuals in the State of New Jersey who hold the designation of Certified Title Professional and is one of the first five individuals in the United States to be designated as a National Title Professional by the American Land Title Association. He is the author of the award winning book Owning New Jersey: Historic Tales of War, Property Disputes and the Pursuit of Happiness. Joe is a Commissioner on the Monmouth County Historical Commission. Joe will explain lands records in simple terms, and how to find genealogical information in those records. Joe is passionate about land records and how they tie into our history, his talks are both humorous and informative.
