(June 2011) - The Biographies page is now complete.
There is also now a page for photos of the people and places
of Paulding County. Feel free to email them to me, and I will
add them to the page.
I am also continuing to update records pages, as
well as adding new information as I have the time. Please
keep
checking in!
With its history of the Miami
& Erie Canal, beginnings in the
Great Black
Swamp, and named in honor of Revolutionary War hero, John Paulding -
Paulding County was officially formed on February 12, 1820.
Paulding County, located in
northwest Ohio, is bordered by Defiance
County (north), Van
Wert County (South), Putnam
County (east), and Allen
County, Indiana
(west).
The purpose of this project is to
provide useful
information in researching family history, genealogy, and local history
related to Paulding County, Ohio. You may refer to
our volunteer
page for those who are able to help you in your research.
Researchers can join the OHPAULDI-L Discussion/mailing List
(Instructions are to the left).
I unfortunately do not live
in
Paulding
County, so I can't do look-ups.
However, I have many ancestors
who
resided in Paulding County for many years, so I am constantly
researching and will add anything that I find to this site in the hopes
that it will also assist someone else in their research.
Please
feel free to email me with any questions or comments, or with any
submissions you have for Paulding County.
If
you would like to be a volunteer coordinator
for an Ohio County, please contact the Ohio State Coordinator, Dale Grimm
for further details.
This site
is dedicated to the memory
of our previous County Coordinator, Mike
Sandridge
