Information about the Vinton County Chapter of the Ohio Genealogical Society
(This image is from a card sent by the Vinton County Historical and Genealogical Society. I hope they don't mind if I use it.)
This information is current as of July 2018. This page is not affiliated with the Vinton County Chapter. I am presenting this as a personal service to publicize their organization and their publications (maybe someone will be prompted to buy a membership or publication of theirs). If anyone finds an error or a change occurs that I miss, please notify me at the e-mail address at the bottom of this page.
