Heritage) is published monthly from September through
June (except December). Beginning with Volume 25 (2000-2001)
the Heritage
included occasional special supplements in addition to
regular news and shorter articles of interest to
genealogists. These issues have been subject indexed by
PERSI as have older issues by the Allen County Public
Library.
The Heritage
is free to members of the Society and sent free to selected
genealogical and historical societies and libraries. It is
available in most public libraries in SW Michigan.
A Surname Index

lists historical names published in the Heritage.
Short articles, news of genealogical events, books for
review or transcriptions of original records from
southwestern Michigan are always welcome. Mail
