Research Help

Winnebago & Boone Counties Genealogical Society can help you find the information you need.
Our members have years of experience and access to research tools that may assist your search.

Requests for research will be forwarded to appointed members of the Society. The fee for an initial request will be $15.00. Fees for further research resulting from the initial request will be negotiated between the client and the researcher.
Send requests to wbcgensociety@gmail.com, or you can write us at:
WBCGS
P.O. Box 10166
Loves Park, IL 61131-0166

A self-addressed stamped envelope should be included with each mailed request, as well as an e-mail address, if available. Checks should be payable to the Winnebago & Boone Counties Genealogical Society (or WBCGS). If you would like to pay online, just click the Pay For Research button on the left side of this page.

The initial fee covers about one hour of research, which may be adequate for simple requests or to make a judgment on the scope of material potentially available.
