Genealogy Information

The Library holds extensive collections of materials of interest to the genealogical researcher. The holdings are housed on the second floor in three separate areas. Materials are found in the Genealogy Room, the Old Greenfield Township Historical Society Room and the Roaring Spring History Room.

Due to the historical significance and fragile condition many of these items must be used in the library.
