Genealogy Databases

The HRC also provides access to several online databases, which are free to use but must be accessed on library property by using a library computer or the library’s wireless internet. Because these are public accounts, users cannot save their personal family trees and records to these accounts.

Ancestry.com

Ancestry provides access to a worldwide collection of family trees as well as the U.S. Census through 1950, early Kentucky birth and death records, and much more.

Fold3.com

Fold3 provides patrons with access to a wide variety of military records from the American Revolution to the modern era. The volume and types of records vary by conflict.

Newspapers.com

View more than 28,000 newspapers across 300 years including the Harrodsburg Herald and other local papers.
