    1. Re: [PAYorkGEN] visiting York co
    2. Hello Selma: I was in York last October to basically do the same thing on my mothers families. If I had it to do again the first thing I would do is go to York City to the court house and get any information on land and dealings there and get that information off the micro film even if all isn't totally readable you get enough to put together other information. Then I would go to the Historical Society and go through what they have there. I would also joint the Historical Society if you are going to be able to go there for several days it is cheaper then paying each time. Court house information costs .25 a page. Lots at the Historical and get a York County map book which have all the cemeteries marked. You can get that book at the gift shop at the Historical Bldg. Cost about 12.00. Well worth the money. Also Dr. Hively has books there that gives information on land dealings and areas. I am sure others will help you too. Kaye
