Here’s this week’s challenge, authored by Amy Coffin:
Check out your regional archives. Last week’s challenge had you checking out the genealogy-related web pages at the National Archives. This week, your task is to explore the offerings at regional National Archives facilities. Use the map to find the regional office close to you. Just like last week, click links and browse. What types of collections are at your regional location? Challenge participants outside the United States can explore their own regional government archives/records offices.
