The Idaho Genealogical Society works closely with the Idaho State Historical Society Library and Archives. To learn more about the history and the record-keeping systems of Idaho counties, use the nine inventories of Bingham, Boundary, Clark, Kootenai, Lemhi, Minidoka, Nez Perce, Power, and Teton county archives produced by the Historical Records Survey around 1940. The Family History Library has most of these inventories. These are listed in the Library Catalog under the County, then Archives and Libraries.
