From the founding of Jamestown to the Revolutionary War—for more than 160 years they kept coming: Baptists, Anglicans, Puritans, Catholics, Lutherans, Quakers, Jews.  Although by 1776, they totaled 500,000 fewer folk than today’s Orange County, their records are often difficult to identify and to locate.

Hal Horrocks is a native of Long Beach, a graduate of CSULB, and a 40-year Orange County resident; he currently lives in Costa Mesa.  A professional genealogist, teacher, author, and lecturer, he has been doing family research for 17 years.  Hal is a member of several professional genealogical associations and is the current president of the Orange County California Genealogical Society.  The owner of a small manufacturing company, Hal has been lecturing to genealogical and other societies for the past eight years on subjects ranging from why people get involved in genealogy to conducting research in early England.
