While perusing a search engine that led people to my blog, I decided to check out some of the entries it listed.
I came upon this excellent post at this site, AfriGeneas, on the history of Black Americans who have shaped the history of the state of California. This site is dedicated to helping Black Americans to research their ancestry and the genealogical ties they can uncover.
Here is the link:

It is a fascinating site with a wealth of information.
Check it out.
