The Bryan County Heritage Association is a gem of a place right in the middle of a tiny town in Southeastern Oklahoma, Calera. It seems that a local woman was quite a genealogist, and when she died, donated at least a couple of hundred books. That collection was the start of their effort to provide a quality place for people to research. Since then, they spend every dime they get buying more---more census films, more books, more of everything. It is run entirely by volunteers in an old building adjoining the volunteer fire station. I joined right away, and every time I go in there I put a few dollars in their jar by the door. It is such a relief to be able to look at census microfilms that do not have scratches and use machines that are not worn out and hard to focus. Among other things, they have a set of volumes listing Union and Confederate Civil War Soldiers, Chickasaw and Choctaw files, many out of print books on various families, records from various southern states, and burial records from many funeral homes in Oklahoma dating back well into the early 1800's.
