California Genealogy and History Archives

LQQK-UPS

This is a new section to the archives.  If you have books that you feel may help someone in their research and are willing to do lookups for others, please consider listing that information here! 

If you request a lookup from one of these generous people, please be sure to thank them and to reimburse them for any costs in taking care of your request (postage, copies, etc.).  Please be respectful of their offer of help and limit your request to ONE book and name at a time per volunteer.

The coordinator for the archives does not do lookups, so please direct your requests to those listed below.  Thank you.
