Hey man, I just got my MA in History this year and the best place to look for information on local history and specifically people is the local universities libraries. I'm sure they'd be ok letting you read a little bit even if you don't have a student ID, but you couldn't go home with any books most likely. Maybe a librarian could help you do a digital database search as well, you never know what may have been digitized these days.

Another thing you can do is use Familysearch.org to look documents pertinent to their lives. it's like Ancestry but it's free to use.
