The Joiner History Room is a cooperative effort of the DeKalb
County Board, County Judiciary, County Clerk’s office,
County Central Plant, County Sesquicentennial Committee, County
Historical & Genealogical Society and DeKalb County citizens
concerned with safeguarding their heritage as represented by the
historical documents in the collection. The Joiner History Room
is not a museum, but an archive for researchers. Our historical
materials date back to the hand written minutes of the first
session of the county commissioners in 1837. As there has never
been a fire to destroy any of the county’s valuable historical
files, they have been meticulously preserved to meet the needs
of today’s and tomorrow’s researchers. The collection includes
among other things civil war papers, newspaper files and
numerous boxes of manuscript materials. If you should require
information regarding one of the townships, the involvement of
DeKalb County’s sons in the civil war, tax assessments over the
years, or other information, the joiner history room is much
needed repository for historians. The room is open to the public
and records are available for inspection on Thursdays from 1
p.m. to 4 p.m. Researchers are welcome. |
The USGen Web Project
sponsors a web site on DeKalb County for genealogical and historical
researches. The address is: http://www.rootsweb.com/~ildekalb/.
