There is a $10.00 Query Research Fee for each surname searched. Contact ONE of the three researchers below. Tammy conducts southern county research and Kitty conducts northern county research.
HOW TO - Researchers will not conduct searches over a wide range of time that include many family members and/or generations. The researcher may contact you in regards to conducting a more extensive research, at which time you may be asked to submit an additional fee. The query person has the choice if they would like the researcher to conduct a more extensive search.
STICK to a specific family (surname) in a specific time period.
BE SPECIFIC when requesting a search, which would include known information such as: full names, dates, locations, and other pertinent information, when known.
RESULTS - Include what specific results you are seeking. For example select from this list:
Seeking death date
Seeking marriage date
Seeking family relationship
Seeking parents
Seeking land & deed records
Seeking church affiliation
Seeking birth date, etc.
SOURCES FOR QUERIES - The sources researchers use come from ALL of the Chapter publications and may also include various Schiappa Public Library (Ohio Genealogy Research Dept.) and also the Jefferson County Historical (Vivian Snyder) Library sources. Please be aware of the fact that when you request the Schiappa Library or Historical Library to do a search, you may be limiting your results to just the records they have available. We seek out from all of these various repositories in Jefferson County, Ohio.
EXTENSIVE RESEARCH - For more extensive searches which would include the Jefferson County Courthouse Records, you would need to contact a private researcher and enlist her skills in more detailed research and copies of courthouse records. You may contact Gail, who we recommend, as a private genealogist. She will the fees she charges for research.
