<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> I believe you are thinking of
the Museum that has a research library in Douglas County. The
genealogical society is in the courthouse basement and the public library
is right next door. They are not that large but they are pretty good
at Douglas County as well as the courthouse is right there. The
people in Douglas County have always been so kind and considerate as
well. I'd forgotten to mention the museum which has a nice photo
collection and great resources as well. Having so much of my family
in Douglas County has given me a fond spot for doing research down there

think, it's just off the highway on the east side? But, not to the
Library. I'm looking for Parks, Reids, Richardsons. Do you have
any idea if the library would have information that would include them?
Except for Reids, they were all gone to eastern Oregon/Washington by
about 1870.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I like to visit the Knight Library at the

have a large collection of city directories for the state of
