Current Projects
The chapter is always working on projects. Some in progress or planned for 1998: we hope to finish Vermillion Township Research Aid in the township series. This will give cemeteries, land records, census, tax lists for that township up to about Civil War times. We are doing a survey of records that churches in Ashland County present or past kept and still exist. We hope to
index the 1870 census. It has been copied - the names, legibly, and we need to enter them into computer in order to generate an index. If we get time, we'll get an existing manuscript index to Loudonville newspaper obituaries in publication format, and work on a genealogical research guide to Ashland County give library information, list of references in our library, what is available for researchers, etc.
