The Archives

The Archives in Morrow has both a Microfilm Research Room and an Archival Research Room. We have extensive microfilm holdings of value for genealogy research and general historical interest.

We also have about 180,000 cubic feet of archival holdings dating from 1716 to the 1980s, primarily textual records but also maps, photographs, and architectural drawings. See our online exhibit for highlights from our holdings.
