lawrence county historical and genealogical society

The staff was very helpful with the old records, the genealogy support is great, and the exhibits were quite interesting.

Skip the library and go directly to the Historical Society. Their goal is for every visitor to leave with information on their ancestors! And they succeed. Joyce Shepherd is the director and she meets you with a smile and digs right in to your family history with a huge amount of information. If you have ancestors in the area, GO HERE!
