We have volunteer typist available, or use our computers. (A small fee is required to use some of the items at the museum.)

We are able to assist you in searching family records, setting up family books, organizing your records and more! Working on your family tree? We can help! We are always busy working on additions to our records.

We have internet access to Ancestry.com and other paid websites. We also have access to obituaries of people that may not be buried in the county but may have been affiliated with Waushara at one time.

We are continuously updating our records.
