Bibliography of Hopkins County Resources & Lookup Volunteers
|
|
Lookup requests should be limited to one name, or perhaps two if it is a married couple. Information given will be minimal, for example if it is a cemetery lookup, the information will be the name of the cemetery and the dates on the headstone. Please do not ask for "everybody with X surname" or an entire family group, or for hardcopies to be mailed; the volunteers have been asked not to comply with such requests.
Our lookups will extend to searching the book to determine if the book would be helpful to you in your research. Should the book prove useful, we can provide the authors address and ordering information.
I have listed many of the Hopkins County books that are available, although certainly not all. If you have published any books on Hopkins County, won't you offer to do lookups in them, or give us permission for others that own them to?
Feel free to request a look-up from the following books.
- Put HOPKINS COUNTY LOOKUP in the subject line of your message
- In the first line of the message please put the name of the book you are requesting the lookup in.
- Only 1 name in 1 book per request.
NOTE: Failure to follow these simple guidelines will result in your request being ignored.
If you request a lookup, don't forget to thank your volunteer for their time. All books were compiled and published by the HCGS unless otherwise stated. |
