Research Facilities.

    Attached to the Museum is our Research area where we have resources for general genealogy research as well as a local studies collection which includes files, archives and photographs.
    Family research will be conducted on behalf of visitors or interested correspondents. A fee ranging from $25 to $40 is charged for each specific piece of research.
