Ken -- Howard County is the next county north of Tipton Co. on Rte. 31
coming north from Indianapolis. Kokomo is the major town and county seat.
The genealogy library there is located in the basement of the Kokomo Public
Library. They have paid staff who specialize in genealogy. If you will go
to the INGENWEB site --
, you will find a lot
of information. The INGENWEB coordinator is Debbie Beheler, who is also an
employee at the genealogy library (and my 4th and 5th cousin). The library
itself has a site,
.
There has always been a lot of back and forth between Tipton and Howard
counties, and I believe the Howard Co. library has most if not all of any
reference works existing on Tipton County.

Virginia,
Are you referring to a different Genealogy Library, other than the one at
the Tipton Library? If there is a better one(or another one)that is
"North of Tipton" could you please give us a more exact location of where
it is?
