Ever so often and at least twice a week I receive news of another place we should be looking.
This is like, your Bucket Lists of Research Places including Libraries.
Some I have been to, most I have not but would love to.
Camping at the Michigan State Archives for five days, would put a dent in my need of sources.
Knowing they are there, just have to be able to stay long enough to source them.
Why this facility? Because of the data it harbors for other places near that I so could use.
Recently learn the JONES family (Dad's side) spent time in Michigan was a shocker. It should not have been. Michigan is between New York and Illinois. Could never figure what path they took to get to Nunda, ILL. Amazing when someone else's book can help you with that answer. Yes, it had
Jones in it from New York.
Best part would be I could be staying at our sons' home to do this research.

Each state has an archives of sorts. Check it out. Most states have a Historical or Genealogical
Society website also. All of them filled with information to assist in your research.
Michigan is an awesome place to visit and conduct research. I hope you can make it to the archives one day. The best part of the Archives is that the library is in the same building. I have a few of the same repositories on my bucket list.
ReplyDeleteBrenda Leyndyke, I have been there at least 4 times but the time is so fast and quick and I always find tons more I want to go back and review. The staff is awesome.
