All requests must be in writing. The Library staff cannot take research requests by telephone. 

 Please feel free to call regarding available library resources. 

Please include your name, mailing and/or email address with all correspondence. You may also include a SASE.

There is no charge for lookups; however, the costs for copying, mailing, and other incidental fees must be paid by the querying party.

Be specific when requesting information. For example, "I am looking for an obituary for John Smith who died August 15, 1923 in the Chechero area" but not "Could you please send me all the information you have on the Smith family?"

Please be aware that queries are answered on a first-come, first-serve basis, as time permits. Requests for information must be brief.  Lengthy requests requiring in-depth research cannot be performed.

Requests for lookups should be sent to:

Genealogy Department

Rabun County Public Library
