This CD-ROM includes electronic image reprints of three important works on the history and genealogy of the Lebanon Valley area of Pennsylvania.
Marriage and Death Notices Transcribed from the Pages of the Lebanon Valley Standard, 1871-1879 - Robert A. Heilman. The records abstracted here came from the "Lebanon Valley Standard." The events reported occurred mainly in Berks, Dauphin, Lancaster, Lebanon, and Schuylkill counties in Pennsylvania. This collection is particularly important because the State did not mandate the recording of vital statistics by civil authorities until 1885. (1995)
Marriages (1832-1864) Reported by "Der Libanon Demokrat," A German Language Newspaper Published at Lebanon, Pennsylvania - Robert A. Heilman. The records abstracted here were originally published in German, but are now available in English. This paper began publishing in 1827, and went out of existence when it merged with the Berks County Zeitung in 1864. The events reported occurred mainly in Berks, Dauphin, Lancaster, Lebanon, and Schuylkill counties in Pennsylvania, with most being from Lebanon and western Berks counties. (1990)
Deaths (1832-1864) Reported by "Der Libanon Demokrat," A German Language Newspaper Published at Lebanon, Pennsylvania - Robert A. Heilman. (1990)
The books are presented as graphic images, so the user sees the works just as they were originally published. They are intended to look and function very much like "real" books. The indexes are human-generated, manual indexes. There are no electronic indexes, and there is no electronic text to search. However, extensive electronic tables of contents have been added which facilitate use of the books. The Abobe Acrobat reader is provided on the CD for all versions of Windows and Macintosh. The version of the reader needed for other operating systems can be downloaded free from www.Adobe.com. (NOTE: This CD is best viewed with a monitor resolution of 800x600 or higher.)
