Marshall County, Indiana Lookups

Lookups

Listed here are some, but certainly not all, of the resources for Marshall County, Indiana. These volunteers have agreed to do a limited amount of research. My thanks to everyone who is helping!

Following these guidelines will make life a little easier for everyone:

Lookups must have a Marshall County connection. I
Enter "Marshall County Lookup" on the subject line of your request. Doing this will help ensure that your request is not overlooked or inadvertantly deleted.

Limit your request to one name. Please be specific about the information you need, include dates and locations if possible. A general request, such as "Send me everything you have on the Smith family." is inappropriate.

In the first line of your message, mention the name of the source.

Be prepared to pay for copies, postage, etc.

Be patient. Most volunteers have families and jobs they must also attend to.

Thank your volunteer for their time.

We can always use more volunteers. If you own, or have access to, any Marshall County related information, whether listed or not, and will do some research, please contact me.

For More Information Send an eMail to Karin Rettinger or to the Marshall County Historical Society who is willing to do census lookups for 1840-1930.

NOTE: All of my other current volunteers live in Marshall County, Indiana and have access to the genealogy library at the Museum. You will be wasting everyone's time if you contact all of them to look up the same thing.

Current Volunteers: Marilyn Gochenour AND Jerry Eby
