The Marcus Historical Society has started a genealogy section at the Reed Center.
We are asking anyone with a Marcus connection to contribute to this project. Family histories may be submitted for placement in our files (100 pages or less) or you may wish to donate a copy of your family history book for our shelves. We are also setting up an obituary file. Please add your name, address, phone, and e-mail to your submissions.
Since our files are limited at this time it should be noted we have access to the Marcus Library files and the Cherokee County Archive files for research. We will do research on families with a Marcus connection only.
We will be charging for research and copies so let us know how much time you wish us to spend on your request.
Research; $10.00 per hour plus .10 a copied page
