Dear Lais, I found this on another list and found it very interesting and really hadn't thought about what would happen to all my research if I suddenly died. Has anyone else on this list thought about it? Peggy Price Has there been any discussion of what should happen to a > person/genealogist's files and books collected over the years when they > die and no one in the family is interested in genealogy or realize the > value of the records collected?

Hello, Does anyone know where I can get a photocopy of "Preliminary Form For Petition For Naturalization " in Ohio ? where are they Archived at ? Thanks for your time. Bill Good

Hello list: I am searching information on Henrietta BROWN. Information passed on to me says she was born in Morrow Co. in 1838. I have no specific date or parents names. Since Morrow Co. was not formed until 1848, I am not sure which neighboring county she might possibly have been born in. Can anyone give me any pointers on this search? Does anyone out there have a BROWN family with Henrietta in it? Thanks Elizabeth Milne Harbor springs MI

Can someone on the list who is familiar with Mansfield tell me in what ward Wood St. would be in on the Census of 1900? I have a 2nd great uncle living there and could use that info to get his census record to use in the application for the Civil War Families of Ohio. He was Henry Goodsell Palmer or H.G.

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/AYB.2ACE/518 Message Board Post: HAR is introducing a brand new CD product: 1868 Atlas of the State of Ohio. The 68 page atlas has been scanned at 400 dpi and presented in high quality Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF). The viewing software, Acrobat Reader, is included on each CD. This is a departure from our indiana and Illinois Atlas CD's in that it is more like an e-book than a series of 19th century county maps. There is quite a bit of statistical data and text in this product including sections on: Agriculture, Canals, Climate Map, Climatology, Colleges, County Evolution, Land Grants of Ohio, Geological Map, Geology, History, Schools and Seminaries, Post Offices, Railways, Statistics and Surveys of Ohio. The Atlas contains multiple adjacent county maps that are useful for identifying 1868 transportation routes, railroads, canals and many early Ohio place names. The 25 city maps in the Atlas are much more detailed with many early government and industrial sites including: a variety of mills, cemeteries, churches, schools, asylums, fair grounds, race tracks, business locations, etc. This is an informative snapshot of mid 19th century Ohio and is recommended for anyone interested in undertaking historical or genealogical research of this period. A complete Table of Contents and examples taken from the Atlas can be viewed at the following link: 1868 Ohio Atlas web page: http://www.har-indy.com/oh_map/oh_index.html 1876 Indiana county maps: http://www.har-indy.com/in_map/in_index.html 1876 Illinois county maps: http://www.har-indy.com/il_map/il_index.html All are also available at our eBay store: http://www.stores.ebay.com/historicatlasseriesbyhar?refid=store Thanks for looking.
