I would never have thought to check with the junior college. I visited their website and found a link to the Aikin Regional Archives. It looks like they have a wonderful collection. I hope to be able to visit the area early next year to research several branches of my extended family tree. Once again, thank you for taking the time to respond to my query. :) Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
