Lookups

Thanks to the hard volunteer work of Elaine Cecil, we are able to offer:

Index to the Wibaux Pioneer-Gazette from 1907 through Feb of 1914. JPEGs of articles available – contact Elaine Cecil with inquiries. Put “WIBAUX” in subject line of your email.

Index to St. Philip’s Catholic Church 75th Anniversary Book 30 June 1985. Out of print. JPEGs of family pictures available – contact Elaine Cecil with inquiries. Put “WIBAUX” in subject line of your e-mail.

Visit Elaine’s website containing complete transcriptions of Wibaux County cemeteries! Elaine will answer all emails but she travels and may not get back to you immediately. Patience, please.

PLEASE REMEMBER:
The County Coordinator (tx) and other lookup volunteers listed on this page do not necessarily live in Wibaux County and any who do will respect the privacy of their neighbors, so please do not request visits to the County Clerk’s Office, cemetery visits and the like.

We will not honor any requests for information about living persons, even phone book lookups. We are adamant about genealogy resources not being used for possible identity theft.

(In addition to local lookups, you may post queries to the Wibaux County bulletin board at Rootsweb)

We’re looking for people who own books, manuscripts, CD’s, or other Wibaux County resources who would be willing to do lookups for others.

Whether you are using the services of our lookup volunteers, or deciding to act as a volunteer yourself, it is very important that you read the following:

The USGenWeb Project Official Lookup Policy

USGenWeb will not tolerate any copyright violations. Lookup requests should be limited to one name, or perhaps two if it is a married couple. Information given will be minimal, for example if it is a cemetery book lookup, the information will be the name of the cemetery and the dates on the headstone. Please do not ask for “everybody with X surname” or an entire family group, or for hardcopies to be mailed; the volunteers have been asked not to comply with such requests.

Our lookups will extend to searching the book to determine if the book would be helpful to you in your research. Should the book prove useful, we can provide the author’s address and ordering information. The USGenWeb Project will endeavor to get a written statement from each copyright holder which stipulates which books may be used for lookups.

When requesting a lookup, please follow these guidelines in your e-mail message to the volunteer:

Subject should read: “WIBAUX COUNTY LOOKUP”.

In the first line of your message, please list the name of the reference you wish checked.

Limit your request to one or two specific names.

Be sure to say “thank you” to the volunteer who helps you.
