Beginning March 2nd, 2020 the Mailing Lists functionality on RootsWeb will be discontinued. Users will no longer be able to send outgoing emails or accept incoming emails. Additionally, administration tools will no longer be available to list administrators and mailing lists will be put into an archival state.
Administrators may save the emails in their list prior to March 2nd. After that, mailing list archives will remain available and searchable on RootsWeb
Shelbers,
My computer has been in the shop for a week, so I am doing some 'catching up' today.
I have been playing with these two websites. Both may hold some clues for your family research.
http://www.digitalarchives.in.gov/default.aspx
It looks like Marion County has some entries and Fort Wayne (Allen County) has all their land records digitized. The earliest death record I found was 1964. 'Misc Historical Records' was my favorite. Advancing through the pages was not easy but if I used the pull down selection of pages, it usually worked.
Indiana Memory http://www.in.gov/memories/
When I was playing with the state library's website (above) I found the Shelby County 1880 Atlas online
http://indiamond6.ulib.iupui.edu/cdm4/document.php?CISOROOT=/HistAtlas&CI...
It looks like many of the county atlases are there.
I found 501 hits for "Shelby" and added links to postcards for Beechwood Academy, Flatrock, Gwynnevill United Brethern Church. Let me know if you see something else you would like me to add to our Shelby site.
Merry Christmas!
