done any research into church records? One of the suggestions I got for my thesis was to research church records. Honestly, I am not a church goer anymore. I have no idea how to approach these churchs and ask to go through their records. If they even have records from the 1950s. Also, I would also not like to receive any pressure to join their church as I will be going to several demoninations. But mainly because I just don't want to jion their church. Any ideas?

Grace, you should be able to call ahead to the churches that you are interested in visiting. Let them know who you are and what you are looking for and why. Most churches are very good about helping in research. They may even be able to tell you if they have the information that you are looking for - and if they do, they will be able to help you locate it, cutting down your time poring over their records. Most churches have some kind of secretary and many have a church historian.
It's not likely that they will try to get you to join. And if they do, just tell them you are not interested. I seriously doubt anyone would try to press the issue.
Good luck in your research!

Churches are normally very good at helping you in your searches. I agree, call ahead and set up a good day/time to come by. Tell them what information you are looking for...alot of time they can have it ready (or atleast now where to start looking). Be respectful...and things should go find....good luck!

I am trying to find out what, if anything, they contributed to bring the National Radio Astronomy Observatory to Greenbank, WV. Fortunately, I live a three hour drive away from these churches, so I can hardly be expected to join. Thanks for all the tips.
