Hi Brian, You wrote: "Does anyone on this list live in Hartington, Nebraska? I am researching the LUBELEY family of the mid 1800's. They may be mentioned in a history book for that city." I don't live in Hartington, but am familiar with the area. I have been able to locate information on a number of different counties that are far from me through the Interlibrary Loan program at my local library. Is this also a possibility for you? One wonderful set of book that I have picked up on loan is titled "The First 100 years" by Partsch. Wonderful reading if you like to read the local news items and history of the county as well as the stories for the area. I don't know if Cedar County (Hartington) was written on, but this author did several really nice books. Hope this helps. Karen Lehn
