Request Research

Due to many Halifax County courthouse records being unavailable to the public during the county’s three-year courthouse renovation/construction project (2019-2022) as well as current COVID-19 restrictions, the Society is presently unable to complete requests for genealogical and/or other historical research. Please check with the Society at a later date. COVID-19 has also affected the availability of research information found in the Genealogy Room at the South Boston/ Halifax County Museum of Art and History (434-572-9200), the History Room of the Halifax County Public Library (434-476-3357) and at the South Boston Public Library (434-575-4228). Please call the respective numbers to see when these organizations will re-open and check out other sources found in the “Reference Links” section.
