| The Index to Generations,
the newsletter of the Calhoun County Genealogical Society, is now on the
site. This is an every name index for newsletters published
between 1988 and 1995. Plans are underway to update this index. |
The Calhoun County
Genealogical Society was established in 1988 with four
specific goals in mind:
 | To gather and
preserve information of genealogical value
|
 | To encourage
the deposit of such information in suitable
depositories
|
 | To aid
genealogists in the study of family history
through the exchange of knowledge
|
 | To publish and
promote Calhoun county and other genealogical materials

checking back as more data will be added.

"Getting around the Brick-wall" by James Jackson
We all reach the end of
the trail on some of our branches. As Winston Churchill said,
"Never, never, never give up!" By trying variant spellings,
little used sources, and having just a little luck, you may break
through the wall. How about really analyzing the sources you
have already? There may be hidden clues there. Don't
forget boundary changes through the years - are you really looking
at the right place? And don't overlook finding aids and
resources that are available free on the internet.
