Good Day Fellow Mifflin Countians, I do not live in Mifflin County, however, my guess would be it is not open evenings and weekends because there are no volunteers to staff the library, or that the court house building is closed for all business. Why not volunteer to staff the library one evening a month if the building is open? That way you can, perhaps, work on your own research and at the same time give the opportunity for someone else to also research. I found the ladies the day I visited the society to be very helpful and courteous.

I have been asked this questions so many times that I thought I would ask WHY myself ?

Wilmoth, Would you be willing to volunteer ? What is your correct first name ? I do intend to ask about being open in the evenings to see what reply I get .
