References and Resources.
The Gallia County Historical and Genealogical Society has more genealogy records than the Gallia County Library or the Gallia County Genealogical Society, OGS chapter, yet they are not listed as even being or existing. The Family Search team came to the society many years ago and copied all the books that were there at the time. We now have 92 books that were copied (exact copies) of what is in the Probate office. (Birth, Death, Marriages from 1800- 1993) and Wills from 1803 to later 1930's. The GCHGS has become the depository for all the Gallia County books that were at one time housed in the Alden Library, Genealogy, and rare book room on the Ohio University Campus. The early tax records and other land records that no longer could be housed in the Gallia County Courthouse are now a part of the GCHGS collection. The collection also includes the Gallipolis Tribune, the local newspaper, from the years 1900 to 1980. They can be found in the section of the genealogical library in the GCHGS. They are hard bound editions.. easy to read and very available to the public. There are also many books that have been donated by schools, granges, children's home, etc. and other organizations. There are 2 floors of records and 1 floor that houses donated artifacts of the area.. in 3 Museum Rooms... Military, Medical and Miscellaneous. Gallia County Historical /Genealogical Society is located at 412 Second Avenue and is open 4 days a week from 10am to 4 pm. Closed for the month of January. The director can be reached at 740-446-7200. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Trayne  (talk&thinsp;|&thinsp;contribs)  01:21, 6 January 2015 (UTC)
