If you haven't visited RAOGK in a while, it's time to take another look. The site has been updated and now has many links to information about genealogy in general and each U. S. state. Volunteers are located all over the world, however, and there might be someone near your ancestor's birthplace.
You are asked to register (free) and read the guidelines for requesting information from volunteers. You could also register to be a volunteer in your area. Find RAOGK at www.raogk.org.
Here is the blurb from their home page:
"Our volunteers have agreed to do a free genealogy research task at least once per month in their local area as an act of kindness. While the volunteers of Random Acts of Genealogical Kindness (RAOGK) have agreed to donate their time for free, you MUST PAY the volunteer for his/her expenses in fulfilling your request (copies, printing fees, postage, film or video tape, parking fees, etc.) if they ask for it."
