Resources for Sister Counties

When researching in a given county it is usually necessary to also research surrounding counties since county boundary lines changed over the years. Here is a list of resources for Marion Co AR's "Sister" Counties. These are books or microfilm that have been collected by the Marion Co Genealogy Society. They are listed here so that you may be aware of some of the resources that are available for Sister Counties. If you are interested in information from any of these resources please first check the Sister County web site to see if the information is not available there. If you cannot find it on the Sister County site then you can request a look-up from the Marion Co Society.
