  • A Guide to Genealogical Research at History Nebraska
    A Guide to Genealogical Research at History Nebraska The Library/Archives Division of History Nebraska maintains a large collection of library, archival, and photographic materials that may be used in compiling family histories. These materials are available to all researchers in History Nebraska's Reference Room at 1500 R Street, Lincoln, Nebraska. The resources described in this guide are those most commonly used by genealogists in their research. The Library/ Archives holds many other documentary materials not listed here. Please contact us if you have questions concerning other resources. The staff of the Library/Archives will also answer mail requests for a fee, if the queries are clear and specific. Examples of such requests are: an obituary in a particular location with an exact death date; a marriage record when an approximate date and location are provided; a search for a family in a Nebraska census when a location is known; or a search for a surname in a local history. Staff research time is limited to four hours/request. For research beyond that, consult our Fees for Research and Duplication schedule. Many excellent resources are available if you are just starting your family research. We suggest that you ask your local library for some basic "how to" books on genealogy, or contact your local or state genealogical society for information on genealogy classes offered in your area. We will be happy to provide you with a list of Nebraska genealogical organizations upon request. If you wish to hire someone to do extensive family research, you should contact one or more of these organizations for assistance.

OLSON HE year 1952 has seen the Nebraska State Historical Society moving steadily toward the realization of long­ Tstanding aspirations and preparation for fulfilling the greatest obligations to the people of Nebraska that have faced the institution in all of its long history. In reporting to you, it is a pleasure to express once again my deep appre­ ciation for the continuing support given me as Superin­ tendent by President James E. Lawrence, members of the Executive Board, and members of my capable and loyal staff. Despite a strike against the Associated General Con­ tractors of Lincoln which stopped construction from 14 July to 18 August, work on the Society's new building has gone forward in gratifying fashion. The cornerstone was laid on 16 July. At this time, the building is almost entirely closed in, and it is anticipated that work on the interior will con­ tinue during the winter months so that next spring we may begin the long and arduous task of establishing the Society in its new quarters.
