Volunteers Dedicated to Free
Genealogy
This Site is
Available for Adoption
Our goal is to help you track
your ancestors through time by transcribing genealogical
and historical data for the free use of all
researchers.
We're looking for folks who share
our dedication to putting data online and are interested
in helping this project be as successful as it can be.
If you are interested in joining Genealogy Trails, view
our Volunteer Page for further information and then
contact Nancy.
(Enough knowledge to make a basic
webpage and a desire to transcribe data is
required)
We
regret that we are unable to perform personal research
for folks.
All data we come across will be added
to this site. We thank you for visiting and hope you'll
come back again to view the updates we make to this
site.
But in the
meantime we hope you will consider contributing your
Obits,
Biographies and Pioneer Family History.
Send your data contributions to
Veneta and we'll include it on this
site.
If
you would like to be kept informed of our state and
county website updates, subscribe to any or all of our
mailing lists
Alabama is covered under our
"Southern States" mailing list.
Dallas County was created by the
Alabama territorial legislature on February 9, 1818,
from Montgomery County, a portion of the Creek cession
of August 9, 1814.
It was named for U.S. Treasury
Secretary Alexander J. Dallas of
Pennsylvania.
Dallas County is located in the
Black Belt region of the west-central portion of the
state. It is traversed by the Alabama River and bordered
by Perry, Chilton, Autauga, Lowndes, Wilcox, and Marengo
counties. Originally, the county seat was at Cahaba,
which also served as the state capital for a brief
period. In 1865, the county seat was transferred to
Selma.
Other towns and communities include
Marion Junction, Sardis, Orrville, and
Minter.
