Look-Up Volunteers

Chris Kale Corcoran
Will look up data for the El-Pe yearbooks of
1925, 26, 27, & 28
Linda Freed:
La Porte El-Pe yearbooks for the years of 1938, 1939, 1940, and 1941.
I also have the Michigan City Elstonian for 1941 and 1942.
Patricia Gruse Harris   pagharris@sbcglobal.net
General information at Michigan City Public Library and Catholic Church records for Michigan City.
As retired long-time curator/director of
Old Lighthouse Museum, I am quite familiar with Michigan City history.
Amanda Humphrey
History of La Porte County, Indiana, 1876 by Jasper Packard. It is indexed and contains many names.
Also: Excelsior Lodge No. 41, F. & A. M., Souvenir booklet from 1929. This is a 19th Anniversary booklet for this lodge,
which I believe is a Masonic Lodge. It lists many names of members and has a section that lists past members and states if they are still living in 1929.
Mike Maxfield
1874, 1892, 1907 & 1921 La Porte County Plat Books
Amy Ryan:
I'm willing to do free census lookups for 1840-1920 (Indiana) from "Ancestry Plus", sometimes go to library.
Kim Young
