Professional Researchers That Do Research for Cheyenne County BettyAron Schneider, so that the name can be removed from the list. |
| William Andrew - As commonly known, the Nebraska State Historical Society is the leading source for Nebraska Genealogy. With ten years experience visiting this facility I consider that I am competent on their holdings. I am not a professional genealogist so I don't have the fees basis that goes along with that prestigious title. If you are interested in receiving a bid for my services or simply just asking questions about Nebraska genealogy, I will enjoy corresponding with you, answering questions. I request a lookup fee of $10 which would include time spent, parking, copy fee and postage. Please state that your request is for Cheyenne County. Contact me at neresearcher@inetnebr.com |
| If you are willing to do genealogical research but do need to charge for your services to help defray your costs, I will happily list you or your group here also. |
