Welcome from your Cherry County Coordinator

Hello, my name is Michael Lewis. I'm the new County Coordinator for this Cherry County website.  I'm working on a new version of this site to bring you more record transcriptions, biographies,  census records and history articles, and maybe, if we're very lucky, much more.
The resources listed below will help you find out more information about your Cherry County ancestors.


GUIDE to CHERRY COUNTY

Cherry County lies east of the Nebraska panhandle and was created in 1883 from unorganized territory. The county seat, Valentine, is located in the northeast portion of the county in Nebraska Sandhills - the largest active dune field in the Western Hemisphere!
