Volunteering
Volunteering is serving a cause greater than ones self. A volunteer is a person who voluntarily undertakes or expresses a willingness to undertake a service.
'Look-Ups' - Volunteers Needed!
Do you have materials related to Grant County, one of its communities, or about someone who once lived in the county? Why not volunteer to do a 'Look-Up' in that material for other researchers! Contact the Coordinator about your interest. See below for other ways you can volunteer.
Other Volunteer Opportunities
Transcribe Materials for the Coordinator:
There may be times when the coordinator needs help
transcribing history books, diaries, or other materials
for the website.
Digital Photos:
If you live in the area
consider taking photos of gravestones for other
researchers, and of cemetery entrances for use on the
website.
Obituaries:
Create an index of obituaries
from Grant County newspapers. At minimum an index
should include the name and date of the publication,
the persons full name including maiden & nicknames, age,
and what Grant County community they were from.
Help Researchers Obtain Documents:
If you are able to visit a local historical society,
library or government office to locate a document for
someone, or have access to a 'pay to use' site like
Ancestry.com, consider helping other researchers.
