On Our Book Shelf

A genealogist, be they professional or amateur, loves to have many shelves of Genealogy Books to research. This is always the dream of anyone that really has a passion for genealogy. I am no different. So much depends of what you can find that others have worked hard to provide for you. We have listed below many of the publications we use in our research. This does not include the thousands of pages of xeroxed copies of documents we have available. Click on the yellow line to return to the table of contents.
