Indiana Archives

Another online Midwestern site to check is the Indiana State Archives, and while their indices and holdings for family history may not seem as extensive as some of the other sites that I have covered in this blog, every clue is a good clue! The site is at: www.in.gov/icpr/archives

The family history resources include addresses for where to obtain birth, marriage and death records, African American resources, naturalization resources and databases, such as the Fort Wayne, General Land Office and Indian Lands site with over 4800 names. The military records cover all of the traditional engagements and some research assistance, as well as ordering forms are offered.
