LC Researchers, If you are at all interested in Oberlin and the surrounding areas of Lorain County, please visit the newest webpage for Oberlin College and especially the Archives at Oberlin College that went online just a few weeks ago please go to http://www.oberlin.edu/~archive/ You will have to take the time and really explore all the information available here. Please add this in your file of research bookmarks. Also to research the "Index to Lorain County News, Oberlin Weekly News, & Oberlin News: 1860-1917", please add this bookmark http://www.oberlin.edu/library/news_sources/dobnews.html The newspapers at Oberlin College are NOT in the Archive Dept. You must follow the exact directions re: entering name & pass word. I was able to attend a couple of workshops and tours in the Archives and the Reference Departments at Oberlin College this past week. It had been about eight years since I last needed to research at the Oberlin College library aka the Mudd Learning Center. WOW! What improvements and updates you will find there. Just goes to prove that our genealogy interests end up being a life time hobby/addiction and provides you with a never ending thirst for more knowledge and information. Makes me wish so often that I had some Ohio ancestors. I know you will find these sites helpful. -- Nancy M. Meyers, Lorain OH
