Elmer's Genealogy Library

Elmer C. Spear, Founder, and wife June are generally here and our volunteers are here five days a week from 10am until 4pm. Come and visit our library.

The first book purchased was "75 years of Marriages in Wayne County, Ohio." In the past 15 years, 18,000 books have been purchased. With the donations to the library our books total today stands at 23,000. These books cover every state in the union and many overseas countries.

In 2000, the library moved into a new $350,000 building. In 2001, A corporation was formed to run the library.That Board is dedicated to seeing that this library continues on forever.
 

Elmer Spear Credentials.
In 1999 I was selected as Genealogist of the Year by the Florida State Genealogy Society. This was the highlight of my Genealogy career until 2003 when the Federation of Genealogy Societies awarded me their Distinguished Service Award at their Orlando Conference. I have won four first place awards, two second places awards, and one honorable mention (the only time this was ever awarded) in different newsletter writing contests. I have also been the editor or co-editor of over 25 books on genealogy and have even published one cookbook.
