Ohio has an abundance of sources available for genealogical research. In addition, numerous Ohio records have been published by genealogical and historical organizations, and many records and indexes are available on microfilm, microfiche, and even compact disc and the Internet. These sources and many others are described in great detail in this new work by noted genealogical scholar Kip Sperry. Starting with an examination of the holdings of the major Ohio archives and libraries, the work focuses on the many resources available to the researcher, covering everything from church records to divorce records, from periodicals to probates, and from tax records to town records. So thorough is the coverage that it even includes a one-hundred page bibliography of Ohio books and periodicals, the most comprehensive survey of Ohio printed genealogical sources ever published. In addition, the work contains addresses of repositories that house Ohio historical and genealogical records and oral histories, both in and out of the state, addresses of chapters of the Ohio Genealogical Society, a list of Ohio publishers and book dealers, a list of Family History Centers in Ohio, and, at the rear of the book, a collection of Ohio maps of historical and genealogical importance.
