The Elsie Historical Library is wonderful! By visiting the library on Wednesdays (2-5) when it is open, I gathered more information in 3 hours than I had in the past ten years!. The volunteers who staff the room know their material well and quickly pulled out more information than I could look at in just a few minutes. One of the ladies also lived across the street from my great-aunt and remembered her well. They have indexed all the available census records for the area and can look up each year to see if a person is listed. If you are in the area, be sure to visit the Elsie Historical Library. It will be well worth your time. Betsy
