Idaho State Historical Society
The Idaho State Historical Society is an agency of
state government and is the repository of last resort for state
records. We will be happy to look for records of your ancestor’s
property at our Merle Wells State Archives facility, in Boise.
Idaho-specific databases
available:
We (Idaho State Historical Society) can
provide copies of most of the records indexed in these
databases. If we do not own the records, we can tell you who
does. Please keep in mind that the same records may be available
on microfilm from the Family History Library, Salt Lake City,
Utah, as well--via your local LDS family history center.
A list of local family history centers
nationwide is available at
http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Library/FHC/frameset_fhc.asp
To discover what microfilmed records the
Family History Library (SLC) owns, please see their online
catalog at
http://www.familysearch.org/Eng/Library/FHLC/frameset_fhlc.asp
Additionally, the Idaho State Historical
Society operates the Idaho State Archives, the state repository
for original territorial, state, county and city records of
enduring value. These include civil, criminal, death, land,
marriage, tax, state penitentiary, wills and estate records,
among many other record types, many of them existing only in
their original, paper form and never microfilmed.
Finally, the Idaho State Archives Research
Library owns the most complete set of local newspapers from
around the state and from throughout its history (all on
microfilm).
If any or all of these records types looks
helpful, or if we may be of any additional service whatsoever,
please call or visit us at 208.334.2682, 2205 Old Penitentiary
Road, Boise, or
