Our process involves a thorough analysis of all available records and documents. The club offers help with searches in the four counties in which members reside, Eddy, Foster, Stutsman and Wells. Our members volunteer their time to do searches without pay, but the club accepts donations. The donation should be calculated to cover the cost of copy fees, mailing and incidential expenses, and provide a small amount over expenses for the treasury. In this manner we are able to acquire more research materials. We ask for a $20 donation to start the process. If the search nets more than 40 copies of documents, we will ask for another $10 or so. Many distant family reseachers have found our services to be of such value that they have made much larger donations.
We offer to mail photocopies of pages from our cemetery books for $2 for one or two pages, then $1 a page beyond two pages. We will also try to find obituaries and mail you copies for $5 an obit. If you have questions, e-mail us for help.
