Some tips
on SEARCHING our ONLINE
DATA BASE
Search the ever-growing data
base of artifacts, photographs and archival materials that reveal the lively
history of Jefferson County by using QUICK SEARCH and entering KEY WORDS (such as names and subjects).
Use ADVANCED SEARCH to explore by KEY
WORDS; use the drop down menus to view COLLECTIONS and TYPE OF OBJECT.
To narrow results to photographs and to
artifacts that have been photographed, check the little box next to "Only
records with images."
Select items from the list
provided by clicking on the blue number. This will provide
more information about the item, including its actual location.
Hint: Use the search buttons at
the top of the pages to navigate, not your browser's back button.
To
contribute information regarding a specific item simply press the "I Know More
About This" button on the item's data page. Once reviewed by the Research Center staff, the comments you provide
will appear in the user contributed information area of the item's record.
If you cannot come in
to view objects yourself, the Research Center provides research services at $20
per hour. If you are
interested in purchasing a historic photograph or copies of documents,

Check back often; we are constantly adding to the more than 70,000 entries
currently available.
