Is there a fee for this service?

MHS Members receive two (2) complimentary research requests each year. This means two of any combination of general, genealogy or photograph research, not two of each type of research. Members must enter their membership expiration date (mm/yyyy) to receive this member benefit. Resident and nonresident fees apply once annual benefit is used.


What are we researching?

For example, one genealogy search may include up to three of the following:

- a search for a surname in a local county history for one county
- a search for a household or individual in a city directory
- a search for one household in a census' a search for one obituary
- a search for one marriage license
