Lookups &Volunteers |
||
If you own any Ray County books, whether listed or not, and will do look-ups, please let me know. If you know of any other published Ray County resources, please let me know this also. As you can see, volunteers are needed.
Feel free to request a look-up from the following books. Please limit your request to one name per request. Please put RAY COUNTY LOOKUP in the subject line of your request to ensure the message is not overlooked or accidentally deleted. In the first line of the message please put the name of the book in which you are requesting the lookup.
If you request a lookup, don't forget to thank your volunteer for his or her time.

| I have Cemeteries of Crooked River Township and Grape Grove Township in Ray County and I would like to do lookups for others.
These are from my good friend and great genealogist, Schelby Holliday. I would be honored to donate or do look ups to benefit others in their search for ancestors. |

At the time of this tax list 1821 Ray County covered all of the areas now included in the counties of Clay, Carroll, Clinton, DeKalb, Gentry, Worth, Caldwell, Daviess, Harrison, Livingston, Grundy, and Mercer. |

| I now have access to 1840, 1850, 1860, 1870, 1880, 1900 and 1920 census. I am more than willing to do one name lookups, not all people with same last name either: One first and last name :) Birth year and place along with full name would be neccesary along with any last name spelling variations. | Judy | |

The following is a policy statement on lookups:
USGenWeb, MoGenWeb and RootsWeb do not wish to be party to any copyright violations. 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. If you feel there is enough material in the book to warrant it, ask the volunteer how you might purchase your own copy.
If you see a book listed for lookups that you hold the copyright to and do not want it used, please notify the county coordinator and it will be removed.
