   CAN YOU HELP US?

One of the ways the Genealogical Society of Henry County, Indiana, Inc. has increased the resources available in the Research Center is by donations from our members and non-members. If you have genealogy and history related books, CD-ROM's, microfilm, or microfiche that you no longer need or want please consider donating the items to the Society.

The Society is entirely ran by volunteers. You probably know there are many facets of keeping a Society functioning from month to month. Now that we have our own Genealogy Library we have an added burden of maintaining the building and opening the library so that you may visit on a regular basis. To do this, we need help. Please consider volunteering an hour or two per month, or more if you prefer. Please contact Lola Snyder for more information about this great opportunity to help us forge ahead in the name of genealogy and history for the county of Henry.
