Ancestry Anyone doing research into their ancestors knows that ancestry.com is far and away the best website for tracking down all the details about one’s relatives. Ancestry’s extensive databases include census records; immigration and emigration records; newspapers and periodicals; court, land, wills and financial records; directories and member lists; military records; birth, marriage and death records; and more.

The library edition of Ancestry provides access to patrons on site at the library but does not permit access from home. Patrons who bring their own laptops to the library and access the internet through our wireless capability will be able to access Ancestry.
