Hello everyone-- As part of the "Kansas History and Heritage Project," I have created a new research website for McPherson County. Please take time to visit it and have a look around: http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~ksmcphhp/ This site features 1889 and 1903 directories, plat maps for all townships for 1903 and 1921, G.A.R. rosters, Swedish/Danish immigration records, biographies from the 1893 history book (not complete, but I am working on it) and some obituaries. Although I try not to duplicate information already online, after I had transcribed marriage records for 1882 and 1883, I found that the local historical society did have an index of McPherson Co. marriages. However, since the records I transcribed included a little more information (ages and residences) I felt comfortable leaving them on my site. My new website also includes a search engine to make finding that elusive relative a little easier. However, because of the possibility (more like probability) of names being misspelled, I also recommend browsing if you do not find what you need through the search engine. The new McPherson County site is part of the "Kansas History and Heritage Project": http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~kahhp/index.html At this time, only 13 counties have their own sites (only 92 to go!) but for those counties who do not have their own home, I do have a "County Archives" section on the state site. There I will store information for those orphan counties until it can be moved to an individual website. This information can be accessed on the state site. I hope to have some data for ALL counties by the end of the summer, and websites for all counties within two or three years, so as you can see, it is an ongoing and lengthy project. Websites for neighboring counties of Saline, Dickinson and Marion are already online--check them out if you have any interest there. Sheryl
