This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Shisler/Reed Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/2VB.2ACE/454 Message Board Post: I am planning a research trip to Ohio Aug 30-Sept 3. I want to visit Paulding, Medina, Trumbull Fairfield & Fayette counties. Is there a Fairfield Co Historical Society? Is there a library that has old newspapers from the area? What about a Probate register for the area prior to 1900? Has anyone done research at the courthouse? What are the rules for doing research. Any information about the area and where to do research would be greatly appreciated

I found this on ebay, and thought that someone here might be interested. This is an auction for a CD containing the census that was taken of Civil War veterans in Fairfield county in 1890.
