GENEALOGICAL DEPARTMENT
The museum's Genealogical Department contains a limited collection of local family genealogies, including that of the village's founder, Judge Samuel W. Dexter. Local Protestant church records are archived at the museum. A card file is maintained on recent deaths and other events in Dexter and environs.
We have a collection of cemetery readings for the Dexter area including, Forest Lawn cemetery, St. Andrews cemetery, St. Joseph's cemetery, and smaller cemeteries in Webster, Dexter, Lima, Scio, and Lyndon townships.
