The Huron County website on OHGenWeb on Rootsweb is back online! All of the information that has been there since 2005 is still there! Please Note: Some of the information on this site is out-dated, but it does contain a lot of information about Huron County history and genealogy that is not available elsewhere.
Wi-Fi Is Now Available!
The Huron County Chapter of OGS and the Firelands Historical Society are pleased to announce that the new Wi-Fi Internet Network is now installed in the Laning-Young Research Library. You can connect wirelessly to the Internet by using your laptop computer, any mobile device, or our in-house computer.
Both organizations would like to thank Information Technologies & Training of Norwalk for their excellent service, their knowledge of networks, and for the time they spent getting our network set up and running. They were very generous in donating their time to this project, which will help all of the visitors who come to the Laning-Young Research Center and the Firelands Historical Society Museum. We couldn't have done it without them!
