The USGenWeb Project

The County Clerk's Office in the town, city or parish where  your ancestor lived may contain that piece of information that you've been searching for regarding your long, lost and sometimes, forgotten loved ones.  Knowing the geographical location in which your ancestor lived can provide a wealth of information if you just knew where to look.  Well, look no further!  With just a few clicks of the mouse, you can access the USGenWeb Project's website!  What is the USGenWeb Project, you might ask?  Quoted from their website is the following excerpt:

"Welcome to The USGenWeb Project! We are a group of volunteers working together to provide free genealogy websites for genealogical research in every county and every state of the United States. This Project is non-commercial and fully committed to free genealogy access for everyone.  Organization is by county and state, and this website provides you with links to all the state genealogy websites which, in turn, provide gateways to the counties."
 Projects that are currently accessible at their website include:
  1. The USGenWeb Archives Project
  2. The USGenWeb African American Griots Project
  3. The USGenWeb Genealogical Events Project
  4. The USGenWeb Kidz Project
  5. The USGenWeb Lineage Project
  6. The USGenWeb Tombstone Transcription Project
  7. USGenWeb Archives Sub-Projects.
Why don't you check them out and their resources as well at:  The USGenWeb Projects Index.

See you next week!
