Regarding the Vigo County Public Library...
I very much agree, they do have a very nice Special Collections
department which has a lot of good information for genealogy
research. From my experience this past weekend, I would highly
recommend visiting during the week, as their weekend staff consists
of part-time employees who don't quite have the depth yet of the
more experienced staff you'll find during the week. They also do not
have access to some of the archives that are available only to the
archivists.
Also, probably even more important... the library hours are much
shorter on the weekends.

Visit the Vigo County library. Put that on the top of your list of "must
do" while visiting Terre Haute. The genealogy department is full of info.
They were great about helping, when we visited last year. (May 2000)
