Lookup Volunteers

Page last updated: Tuesday, 29 September 2009

If you have reference dealing with Northampton County and would be willing to do lookups for others, please let us know! Send e-mail to Nancy

NOTE: Time constraints do not allow me to personally do look-ups. I suggest you post your queries to the Northampton Mailing List. History has shown that there are a lot of very helpful members who will be glad to help, if possible.
Nancy

When asking for a lookup, please provide as much information as possible, giving full names and dates if possible. Be sure to include which reference you are referring to when sending in your request and put the words "Northampton County Lookup" in your subject line. Please do not send in a blanket request, for example: looking for all of the Jones in Northampton County-we are volunteers, not paid researchers! Your request should be limited to one name per request and please be sure to thank the volunteer for their time!

These volunteers have generously offered their time and energy. Many others visit this site, so please try to keep your requests simple.

GENEALOGICAL ABSTRACTS OF ORPHANS COURT RECORDS,  Northampton County Pennsylvania

VOLS.A-E 1752-1795 Vol.1 by Candace E.. Anderson

Roy W. Schreffler 

Roy has purchased Fairview Cemetery and has volunteered to do lookups.  A big thank you goes out to him.

Albert W. Wolff  

I have the following references and will do lookups on a volunteer basis. I will try to perform them in a timely manner but may not get to them immediately; so try be patient. My interests are in the Beil, Hinckel, and Mickley families.

Mike Bartholomew

I am willing to do searches on a volunteer basis. I can't always guarantee that my response will be immediate, but I will get to the requests as soon as I'm able. My response will be by e-mail, and I don't want to bother with making copies of pages and mailing them out. The information from 1772 to 1823 is available on microfilm from the LDS. The later years I obtained from a member of the current church. They are transcribed records, not copies of the originals.

Names include: GLASS, HELLMAN, CHRIST, EYERLY, WOLLE, AHRY, JORDAN, BENADE, COPE, EDMONDS, COLVER, ALLEMAN, FEHR, WARD and GOLD. I will be happy to do lookups in this book. Please put something like Lookups in Book in subject line so I don't delete it.

1. I have the three volumes of "The History of Northampton County" by William J. Heller, published by The American Historical Society 1920. It has 536 pages of county and township history, 639 pages of biographical sketches and some great photos.
   I can scan the page and send it to imaging and attach the image to an email. I've sent other things out recently, using this method, and so far no one has had difficulty opening the attachments.
