Hello, Awhile back the list was writing about land records on line but I think it was MD records. Does anyone know if there are land records available from 1826-1830 for Sussex County. In particular Broad Creek Hundred? On Line I keep finding those which are advertising paid sites. I would visit the Dover Archives in November when I am visiting the area if I knew they had those years. Mary in Alabama

Mary, If you're making a trip to Delaware in November, go to the Archives! My husband and I have been researching his Delaware family for almost 10 years and the Archives is packed with records. We've found land records and wills that date back to as early as 1685 (maybe some even earlier). Check the Orphans Court records too, there can be a wealth of info found there. Also, the staff at the Archives are extremely helpful. I would definitely recommend making the trip, you'll be glad you did!
