This section of the page is available to you with the help of volunteers who are willing to do lookups for you from their private collection of books, maps and other useful county information that they may own.
Please keep your request to just one name or two if it is a married couple that you are looking for and please try to be as specific as possible with first names, dates, locations or other information that would be useful to the volunteer in locating information for you.
Please send a SASE if requesting information via the US postal service. It is also appropriate to inquire with the individuale (s) of any copy costs.
Volunteers must have written permission from the author of publications printed after 1923, unless you are referencing small portions of the works which may be considered "fair use" .
reproduction of a particular portion of work may be considered "fair," such as criticism, comment, teaching, scholarship, and research.
If you would like to be a volunteer to look up surnames, records etc for other researchers from any Dixon County resources that you may have available to you, please contact me at RMosier@kc.rr.com
