A Society member is present in the genealogy section of the library on Friday during library hours for assistance if needed. On Thursday you may research on your own and the library personnel will assist when possible. Printing microfilm readers and a copy machine are available for researchers to use at a nominal cost.
Requests for research will be honored and minimal research will be done at a nominal cost. As volunteers, we cannot comply with research requests requiring detailed research or large amounts of copying.
The Society is one of the very few who have all presently released Kentucky Death Certificates on Microfilm. Starting with 1911 (the first year official records were required) the Society adds new records yearly when released by the State Vital Statistics Department. Copies may be obtained in person at the library. If requested by mail/email and the requestor furnishes the name, date of death and the certificate number (this information may be obtained by linking to http://ukcc.uky.edu/~vitalrec/ and searching in the Kentucky Death Index for 1911-1986), the process is made considerably easier and results in faster response. Large numbers of requests cannot be honored. A nominal fee is charged to cover copying and postage.
After reviewing the following Publication List, download a Microsoft Word version or Adobe PDF version of the publication order form, print it, fill it out and mail to the society along with your check to Ballard-Carlisle Historical - Genealogical Society, P.O. Box 279, Wickliffe, KY 42087
