They have most year books of the Old High School. They also have all of the Aurora News papers on microfilm. Lawrenceburg is the Dearborn County seat. The court house has all birth and death records. They can be intimating bunch. They were not very nice when i stopped in to ask about researching. The county has growen so fast, their new building was out growen before they moved in so have very little research space for the public. The Dearborn County libary has much more to offer on the county. They have many funeral home books on the shelves as well as a card index of events from the Lawrenceburg papers. Also the county cemeterys are very well covered. The liberian is very hepfull. Also keep an eye on ebay, post cards of the area come up a lot and cover many subjects.

I know I have the name of the town Ingrid Persons came from, but beyond that, do no have much. She was born in Ronose Skone, Sweden to Anders Perrson (aka Andrew Pearson) and Ingar Perrson. Ingrid came over in 1879 and when she became a young woman went to work for a wealthy ranch family in North Dakota as a nurse maid. David Costello was a cowboy for this same ranch and that is how they met. Am curious as to your lineage with this family. Do you descend from Ingrid's family? Jan
