Lookup Volunteers

Three Cheers for the Volunteers!!
As you can see, we have very few lookup volunteers, if you have any kind of book on Jasper County, and you are willing to look up information once in a while, please send me, Renessa Wiggins, an email and I will include you and your resources on this page.
If you are writing one of the lookup volunteers requesting information, please include "Jasper County Look-up" as the subject line, many do look-ups for other counties as well and this little thing could mean a faster look-up for you! Also, please be as specific as you can (names, dates, places) regarding your request. Please, only ONE surname per request. Be patient - some of them DO have lives outside of genealogy!! They will get back to you as soon as they can. Also, remember thank them for their time - they are VOLUNTEERS.


Reference Book Look-Up Volunteer
Genealogy Look Up Forum is a web site of volunteers who will do various types of look ups such as, Births, Deaths, Cemetery, Census, and marriage. The site even has it own genealogy chat which is helpful to those wanting to get genealogy advice from a live person. If anyone knows the new address to this site please email Renessa
