I think Harrison Co. library is one of the best in the area - I much prefer it to some other area libraries. Definitely go there, but also go to the new KY History Center in Frankfort. The history center has a website with a map. Louisville has several places worth visiting, IMHO, and the easiest way to find them is by checking out the AAA travel booklet for KY. I hope someone on this list tells us all how to find the "archived" replacement Harrison County clerk's spot where the records are being kept since the flood of '97 or '98 or whenever. I've heard about it, but don't know how to find it.
