As we are working with about 3 different counties within our website and countless numbers of townships, I thought it helpful to set down some order to our website for everyone to better find particular items in particular areas.




The Following Categories

are divided into COUNTY SECTIONS.

CENSUS RECORDS

LAND RECORDS

MILITARY RECORDS

TOWNS OF 1895

SURNAME REGISTRY

DEATH CERTIFICATES

CHURCH HISTORIES

CEMETERIES

CEMETERY SURNAME INDEXES

VANISHING CEMETERIES

SCHOOL RECORDS

BIOS

WILLS & ABSTRACTS

COURT RECORDS

OCCUPATIONS

FRATERNAL ORDERS

MAPS

FUNERAL HOMES

HISTORY

NEWSPAPER CLIPPINGS

GHOST TOWNS

PIONEER DATABASE

CHURCH RECORDS








The following Categories are databases that contain records for all three counties. In these instances please search by surname.

Births

Photo Album--This is divided into 6 sections: 1)Family Photos. 2)Landmarks-this to cover items that are mainly a thing, not a person. 3) Tombstones--photos of graves or cemeteries. 4)School Photos--this to cover school buildings, classes, individual school photos, etc. 5) Military--this to cover all photos of a military nature, although some of these also may appear in family photos or the military section. 6) Unknown Persons--all photos submitted that are unknown who they are

For the Morgan County Researcher--With the exception of the above listed areas, ALL items pertaining to Morgan County I have tried to keep within this section.

For the Putnam County Researcher--With the exception of the above listed areas, ALL items pertaining to Putnam County I have tried to keep within this section.

"What's New"--This will list items recently added

Any New Categories/Sections--I try to give these top billing on our main page and highlight them with a "new" flashy thing. After about a week, these "new" sections will meld into their appropriate sections or be added to the Basic Links section.

There are 4 town divisions; Gosport, Paragon, Quincy and Spencer for those wishing to only research in those main towns; I will try to keep these updated.

Difference between Church Records and Church Histories--Records are just that: records of baptisms, attendance, etc. Histories are of the church formations themselves.

Family Pages--For a listing of any family related websites pertaining to our counties.

Any ideas for new sections/categories is most welcome. I can only guess at what may be of interest to anyone. Your input is of interest to me. Please let me know and a section will be created for it.
