Tippecanoe County, Indiana resources needed.
If you own any Tippecanoe County resources or references, whether listed or not, please let me know. As you can see, the bibliography is FAR from complete. Feel free to contact the owners for more information on the resources below. They are NOT offering to do large amounts of research. In the first line of the message please put the name of the book for which you are requesting information.PLEASE BE SPECIFIC
Do not request general research. I get several requests a week asking for "any help" I can give. I do not have the kind of time it would take to do general research for others. If you have a specific request from one or more of the books listed below, I'd be glad to answer your questions.
If you don't find the help you are looking for here, you might want to try the
TIPPECANOE COUNTY AREA GENEALOGICAL SOCIETY (TIPCOA).
Their volunteers will do research for a small fee.If you have Tippecanoe County references and are willing to answer questions related to that reference, please contact Adina Dyer. Your help is needed!
