WAGS Library List of Searchable Database Indexes
The databases listed below are searchable indexes to some of the records held in the WAGS Library. You may order the complete record online or have it sent via the U.S. Postal Service (see ordering instructions on each database).
We’re pleased to offer these databases. They are here because of the commitment of many volunteers down through the years to making this information available to genealogists everywhere. We are steadily working at expanding our online offerings.
