Source List

The sources in the Source List were used as research material for the County, Towns, and Post office data in Delaware County, Indiana. Not all the sources listed were actually used but are listed for your information and use. Some of these references were not relevant to my research and others have come to my attention but I have not been able to study them to see if they would shed any new light. I have also included a list of the sources grouped by subject for your convenience.


Source Example

The sources are indicated by a set of brackets containing a set of numbers. The first number correlates to the numbered Sources list. The numbers (or other information) following the dash indicates the page numbers. An example would be [S6, page 43, IBC]. The number six would indicate the source to be the 1887 Atlas of Delaware County and the information was found on pages 43 and on the inside back cover (see the abbreviations list below).


I would appreciate any information you might have that would add to the value of these pages. Please contact me by email
