Hello,
Do you have any information on my family the Harrods from Waynesburg Penn 1774.
Thank you,

Dear Ms. Moore,

I conducted a few simple searches, and while the name did come up in a few instances, I'm not sure they relate specifically to your family. You can conduct your own search in our online catalog, Discover: http://discover.hsp.org/.

If you'd like to have someone here do a more extensive search, our Research-by Mail service is designed for just that. You can find out more about this on our website, including fees and the scope of the service: http://hsp.org/collections/library-services/research-by-mail.

Best,
Cary Hutto
Assistant Director of Archives
