At a time when so many researchers may need help in specialty areas, it is important to know that many of our societies sponsor and support Study Groups. Sacramento German Genealogy Society not only has several study groups, but a Mentors program with 22 mentors specializing in areas in Germany. They have a 'German Corner' at the Family History Center on Eastern Avenue where researchers can get help and they have an ongoing schedule of German language classes for beginners, intermediate and advance. For Study or 'User' Groups in your vicinity check with the area societies. After the discovery of gold in 1849 the population of California increased rapidly and in 1850 California became a state.
