    1. Lansing City Library Good Too -- Re: best library for obit lookups

    3. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Sedelmaier Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/hFB.2ACE/1733.2 Message Board Post: Pat, Hello! I agree with Susan as to the (state) Library Of Michigan is the best in the Lansing area for overall genealogical material. Also though, the downtown Lansing City Library (Capitol Area District Library-Main Branch), has a microfilm scanning machine so you can put anything you find from a LANSING paper onto a CD or Disk. Something the state library doesn't have. Below is a link to their website with a map. Timothy http://www.cadl.org/hours_locations/MN.htm P.S. If you wish, you can send the names and dates for the obits you want, and I'll find and send them to ya.

The Library has a wonderful collection of genealogy resources. The Library is located at 717 West Allegan Street in downtown Lansing; second floor. The other end of the building is a great museum, too. The Library has the Lansing State Journal on microfilm, as well as newspapers from other localities. Susan
