Genealogy at ECHS

Extensive Library

Enon Community Historical Society has amassed a large collection of Historical and Genealogical Research Information. Our staff is anxious to help members and visitors in the search for family records and information. We have family history books from local families, cemetery records, maps and files on family names in and around the Enon Area.

On-line & Digital
The Historical Society has purchased many Research CD ROMs from the makers of “Family Tree-Maker”, a very popular genealogical research family database. Along with the extensive collection of CDs, our computer system is connected to the Internet.

Research Packets Available
Our Staff has produced a Beginners Packet to Family History Research available to the public. For a small fee of $1.00, your packet contains basic research tips and forms to begin your research. There are also names and addresses of other sources of information.

We Need Your Family History
If you would like your Family History available for use by other interested parties, feel free to send us all the information that you wish and the staff will be sure to include this in our Library and Files.

We are looking for the following donations for our Research Library. Do you have any of these? If so, and you’re willing to part with them, know that our staff will take extra special care to preserve your donation for years to come giving future generations the opportunity to look back at our lives.
