Hidalgo County Look-up Volunteers
Hidalgo County needs volunteers for look-ups. If you can help, please contact me. Edward A. Black, Sr.
The USGenWeb Project does not allow copyright violations. Lookup requests
should be limited to one or two names. The subject line
MUST mention Hidalgo County! To request a lookup, choose only one or two resources at a time, then e-mail details
of your request to the volunteer for those resources. Information given will be minimal.
For example: in a cemetery lookup, the information given will be the name
of the cemetery and the dates on the headstone. Please do not ask for "everybody
with X surname" or an entire family group or for hardcopies to be mailed.
The USGenWeb Project volunteers have been asked not to comply with such requests.
Lookups can extend to searching the copyrighted material to determine if
the material would be helpful to the requester in their research. Should
the copyrighted material prove useful, the volunteer can provide the author's
address and ordering information.
Please make your
requests very specific. Names and dates of specific people as well as the
type of lookup needed will insure that your lookup is successful. Lookup
volunteers are here to provide a free service, but not to do your research
for you. Thanks for your help in making the lookup service successful.
