This Business

Bluebonnet Genealogy can conduct ancestry research in-person in Central Texas and East Texas counties. Many other locations and countries of origin can be researched for you through online methods.

Although much documentation can now be found online, only about 15% of geneaology records have been digitized, indexed or posted on the internet. 

Other records (probate, wills, births, marriages, deaths) are housed at courthouses, libraries and cemeteries of the  counties, states, and countries from which your ancestors resided, worked, and served. Those records must be researched at their respective repository locations.
