The Wayne County Historical Society has been gathering genealogy information
for more than 30 years!
That information would be of little value unless it was organized into
a body of work that is easily accessable and searchable.
Sue Rogers has served as the Wayne County Historical Society Librarian
for many years and she has been instrumental in making the accumulated information both accessable and searchable.
She and her staff make themselves available to genealogist in
their quest to research their Wayne County roots.
The Wayne County Historical Society Genealogy Library is housed in
the Wayne County Museum and maintains extensive Wayne County family files, books, and information.
There are approximately 25,000 obituaries on file and a growing birth
and marriage file.
People come from literally all over the nation and from many other
nations to do research in the Library.
Another feature of the Wayne County Historical Society Genealogy Library
is the extensive collection of approximately 7,000 photographs that depict the history of the events and families of Wayne
County.
Sue and her staff would be happy to receive any inquiries that you might
submit, though no indepth searches are made, and all inquiries are processed on a "time available" schedule.
Donations to the Wayne County Museum are requested for any research
done by the library staff.
If you would like to submit an inquiry, you can do so by e-mail.
