Look Ups

Many people have offered their time and energy to assist others by searching for information in books that they own. Feel free to ask for a look-up from the following books. Address your questions to the individual volunteer and please limit yourself to one name per request.

Please put Oglethorpe County Lookup in the subject line of your request, and be sure to identify the name of the book you are requesting the lookup in. Be as specific as possible about the type of information you're looking for. It may help to outline what you already know about the family or individual; this will prevent our helpful, generous volunteers from spending a lot of time looking up information you already have.

If you request a lookup, don't forget to thank your volunteer for their time!
