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.
(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.
We hope you will
consider contributing your Obits,
Biographies and
Pioneer Family History.
Send your contributions to
Veneta
