Hi!
So far I've lurked on this group although I've corresponded with several of
you. I plan to put my querry on this weekend. I'm searching mainly in
Indiana and North Central Kansas for my Harrisons.
At the moment I have a great contact in North Central Kansas and while
unravelling some of my Harrisons who went there in the 1870's I've run across
other public records that I would be happy to share. I have some copies of
tax rolls, some obits, and a very interested librarian who is willing to
help. She has never "done" genealogy before and her library (formed in 1874
which is VERY early for North Central Kansas) got on-line about 4 months ago.
Here are some early marriages in Jewell Co. which may connect with somewhat
who emigrated to the west.
