Genealogy and Local History Department
Sharon Roberts recently joined the staff of the Covington-Veedersburg Public Library as our Genealogy and Local History Assistant.
Sharon will be available two afternoons per week to assist patrons who are doing genealogical or local history research at the Covington Public Library. She is an active member of the Fountain County Genealogy Society.
Sharon has just completed work on the book Welcome To Covington, Indiana. The book was created and published by the Fountain County Genealogy Society, Inc. This work compiles historical data about the city of Covington. The early development of Covington is documented, including the government buildings, businesses, schools and churches that formed the city. Many historic homes in Covington receive special recognition. Photos highlight interesting essays about the history of each location.
Sharon has extensive experience in mapping many of the cemeteries in Fountain County. The Covington-Veedersburg Public Library is pleased that Sharon has joined our staff. She will be working to preserve and organize the Fountain County historical documents in our collection.
