| SUN LAKES LIFESTYLES | JULY 2020 | 51 Happy Cookers We are hoping to reactivate soon but we will wait until further notice from the County of Riverside before we are able to resume any activities as a Club. We will try to notify everybody via email and via news articles when we can resume and when we do resume, it will be the Literary Feast. We hope you will be mesmerized by reading a cooking mystery or cooking poetry. You will find yourself wanting to cook a dish that is described as the main character blends delicious ingredients into a mouthwatering recipe. Call Wendy Ditchfield for information about Happy Cookers 2020 upcoming programs, (951) 845-5553. Genealogical Society Using Wills and Estate Records to Learn About Your Ancestors Genealogically rich documents on an individual are created following their death. While many of us actively search for an ancestor's obituary or tombstone we often overlook probate records. Well-documented, accurate, and packed with details, probate records can often provide answers to many stubborn genealogical problems. Probate documents are records created by a court after an individual's death that relate to the distribution of his or her estate. If the individual left a will, known as testate, then the purpose of the probate process was to document its validity and see that it was carried out by the executor named in the will. In cases where an individual did not leave a will, known as intestate, probate was used to appoint an administrator or administratrix to determine the distribution of assets according to formulas set by the laws of the jurisdiction. Probate records can usually be found in the local courthouse that presided over the area where your ancestor died. Older probate records may have been moved from the local courthouse to a larger regional facility, such as a state or provincial archive. If you want to learn more about probate and how to search probate records, please join us. The Sun Lakes Genealogy Society meets the fourth Wednesday of the month in the Main Clubhouse Multipurpose Room at 1 pm. Our goal is to provide professional speakers and programs that will benefit our members in their efforts to find their ancestors in the archives of history. You are the beginning twig of your vast family tree. Starting with you and working backward we will help you develop that tree. Our yearly dues are $20 per family. Your first visit is free. Come and see what we are all about. We may not be meeting in the month of July due to the COVID-19 quarantine, but if you are a member, look for genealogy tips that will keep your ancestry search going forward in your email box. Stay safe and well. For more information, call Karen Tarvin, President at (909) 732- 6448.
