Over the past weekend and week I restructured my professional research strategy on GenLighten.com. The new listings are

• Idaho Federal Land Records – 1860 to 1934
• Oregon Federal Land Records – 1851 to 1908
• Washington State Federal Land Records – 1855 to 1910
• Oregon Naturalization Records – 1859 to 1956
• Washington State Naturalization Records – 1850 to 1974
• Seattle, Washington Obituary Look-ups – 1888 to 2011

Most of these records are National Archives and Records Administration microfilm holdings at the Pacific Alaska Region facility in Seattle. Depending on site availability, I can use different archives for the obituary lookups.

Feel free to post questions about the listings and specific items on that site.

Other obituary and newspaper item look-ups are also possible, using a custom look-up request mechanism on the GenLighten site.
