Introduction

Welcome to Boone County Genealogy! I am the County Coordinator for the Boone County INGenWeb. The Indiana State Coordinator for INGenWeb is Katy Hestand and the Assistant Indiana State Coordinators Judi McKee Burns and Linda Lang. I hope you find a wealth of information on these pages to aid you with your research efforts in Boone County. I don't live in Boone County, so unfortunately I'm unable to assist you any further with your personal research, other than the data and helpful resources I know you'll find among these pages. There are links to various genealogical organizations, libraries and message boards that may be able to provide additional help with research and look-up services. I try to post all new data as soon as possible after obtaining it, so bookmark us and check back often!

Contribute

Boone County Genealogy, INGenWeb wouldn't be possible without the generous contributions of materials and data from volunteers, researchers and the hard work and efforts of the County Coordinators who set the framework and keep it growing. Please help us to continue to grow by submitting something from your research or materials that could benefit others. I'm hoping you've found something here useful for your research, and the best way to repay in kind is to contribute something that can benefit others. You'll find a link to the page for submitting data to the site, or making comments and suggestions, which are also very much appreciated!

Where to Start

  • FAQ's - Please begin by reading the FAQ's for some helpful information and answers to some of the common questions our Boone County researchers have. This page is updated frequently, so take a look each time you visit.
     
  • Genealogy Tips - This is a new section I'm starting that I hope will help you whether you are a beginner to genealogy research, or a seasoned veteran. We'd love for you to submit any good tips and tricks you've learned and can pass on for all of us! You'll also find comment boxes on many of the pages with more genealogy tips I hope you'll find useful.
     
  • Index / Site Map - The most comprehensive list of all the pages on the site. Find the new data here, or something you've missed in the past. Remember, many of the older pages and sections "grow" and have new data added to them continuously, so don't overlook them.
     
  • Surname Registry - Look for mutual researchers who are researching the same Boone County surnames as you. You can also find mutual researchers on the Genealogy Homepages. If you haven't done so already, request to add your name to the list or new surnames you are interested in. Feel free to also ask to have your personal genealogy website link included. If you have already registered your surnames or linked your website, check to see that your contact email address and the URL of the website are current.
     
  • Search the Site - Always use the search engine to search for names or topics you are interested in finding. While the search engine does a very good job of finding what you are looking for, remember that it might not display hits for a name spelled with a different variation, or misspelled in the original data. Read the tips on the search page for the best results.
     
  • Post a Query - Use the message boards to post your queries and request look-ups. Be sure and read the tips for posting do's and don'ts for the best results.
