Local History and Genealogy Research

Visit the Thomas W. Meeske Genealogy Center

Family was important to Tom Meeske and we’re honored that he chose to sponsor creation of a genealogy center. Tom and his brother Gayle have been longtime supporters of WWVHS. The Thomas W. Meeske Genealogy Center is located in the Academy building and is open by appointment only. We have files on area families, yearbooks, and other records to help you find information on family who lived in or around Weeping Water. 

Research Request

Looking for information or photos of an ancestor who lived in the area, or a local establishment or event? Our volunteer genealogist, Suzanne Oliver, will use the museum and online resources to help find the information you’re looking for. There is no charge for this service, however, a donation to the museum is greatly appreciated. 

Fill out the form with as much information as possible. Please allow a few days for a response.
