Record Description:  Personal names taken from statements of incorporation, amendments, and name changes for businesses, fraternal organizations, benevolent societies, and churches. Names are of the signatories for these records.  Often they are the same as the first appointed directors and/or the stockholders, but those names have not been recorded.  Series 45, from which these names were taken, spans 1875, 1881-1926, and includes 58 volumes.  Of those 58 volumes, 28 have been fully indexed (through part of 1915) for the corporation names and the corresponding personal names, which have been made available here.

Index Arrangement:  Alphabetical by last name. Select letter from following list:

A  B  C  D  E  F  G  H  I  J  K  L  M  N  O  P  Q  R  S  T  U  V  W  X  Y  Z 

To request a copy of an incorporation record that you find listed in this index, please fill out an Individual Record Request form. 

Index Status:  Indexing for the first 28 volumes in this series (partially through 1915) is complete.  It is not anticipated at this time that any additional volumes will be indexed.  If you suspect an individual may have been involved in a corporation but you are unable to locate his / her name in this online index, you can submit a Custom Research Request to locate the information.

Note: We recommend scrolling through the index rather than using your brower's "Find" function. See our Tips for Searching the indexes for additional information.
