Greetings to all research and history buffs! My name is Tanner Rausch, and it is my pleasure to welcome you to my blog dedicated to genealogical and historical research focused on the state of California.

From the moment I first thought about genealogy, I have felt excitement and curiosity about where I and my family come from. In today’s world, where everything changes so quickly, diving into the past seems like some kind of special journey. And for me, that journey began with researching the history of the places where my family and I have lived.

The state of California, with its diverse cultures and rich history, provides many interesting stories waiting to be uncovered. On my blog, I strive to share my discoveries, research methodologies and techniques, as well as success stories and interesting artifacts I have found along the way.

California, being home to many different ethnic groups and cultures, offers endless opportunities for genealogy research. I was inspired to research the history of the local communities and tribes that lived in the land long before the arrival of Europeans, and to understand their influence on the state’s modern culture.

Through my research, I have also discovered the many amazing resources available for genealogical research in California – from archival records to online resources to DNA testing.

I hope my blog will be a source of inspiration and information for anyone interested in history and genealogy, especially in the context of California.
