Cumberland County, Pennsylvania has added over 250 years of county archives to the public website, according a press release this week.  Documents dating back to the county's founding in 1750 are now available for public viewing at www.ccpa.net.

The types of records are non-active, permanent records of various Cumberland County offices & departments (primarily pre-1930).  There are detailed instructions on the website for how to access the archives, and for bigger questions the Cumberland County Archivist is Barbara Bartos, whose contact info is readily available on the site.

For the history-minded, the Cumberland County Historical Society has a page on the county website.  They have an online museum tour which is pretty cool.

The Cumberland County webpage is one of the best in Central PA, and they keep making it better!  If you live in the Cumberland County area it's well worth a look.
