| 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represented by the historical documents in the collection.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 sponsers a web site on
DeKalb County for genealogical and historical researches. The address is:
