The Berlin Public Library
This is a listing of sources which might be of help in searching for ancestors who lived in the Berlin area. Some of the Berlin Journals have been indexed for obituaries, marriages and early businesses. A Berlin Historical File containing pamphlets, newspaper articles, pictures, and miscellaneous is arranged by subject and contains information not available elsewhere. A microfilm reader/printer and microfiche reader are available at the library.
