A very helpful source in addition to the above bibliographies is Dennis B. Downey and Francis J. Bremer, ''A Guide to the History of Pennsylvania'' (Westport, Connecticut: Greenwood Press, 1993; Family History Library book 974.8 H23g). Of special value is the description of research collections in Pennsylvania archives and manuscript repositories. However, it does not include genealogy societies. | A very helpful source in addition to the above bibliographies is Dennis B. Downey and Francis J.

Potentially helpful histories of Pennsylvania counties compiled in 1939-1942 is ''Historical Records Survey (Pennsylvania), Notes on County Histories and Points of Interest for American Guide Series ''(Family History Library films 1016396-401). The counties are filed mostly in alphabetical order, and while a general format seems to be followed, they vary in the kind of information given. | Potentially helpful histories of Pennsylvania counties compiled in 1939-1942 is ''Historical Records Survey (Pennsylvania), Notes on County Histories and Points of Interest for American Guide Series ''(Family History Library films 1016396-401).
