Bible Records;

A copy of your family’s bible records could be invaluable in genealogy research for someone searching for the same ancestors. Those bibles are out there, please consider submitting a copy for transcription.

Please contact Sylvia, the county coordinator, if you would like to submit records that may be helpful in family research.

Moravian Records; Volumes 1-13

The Moravians kept detailed records for many years. Their records have been largely overlooked, but full of amazing information. Even if your ancestor wasn’t a Moravian, if they married, did business, or encountered a Moravian in any way, they could still be in the records.

Skip to the index and look for surnames, locations, towns,etc. With thirteen volumes, it seems like a lot of work…….you’ll thank me later!!
