Baseball season is here! The Oronoco Team. ⚾️

Recently, we had a gentleman looking for his family that lived in Oronoco around 1875. We found his family buried in the Oronoco cemetery. We also found his family in the 1880 census.
So, if you are looking for information about your family, we may have it at the History Center by Newspapers, Census, Church Records and Cemetery Books.
