Welcome to Talbot County, Maryland
A Proud part of the Genealogy Trails
Group
Welcome to the Maryland Genealogy Trails website
for
Talbot County.
Our goal is to help you track your ancestors through time by transcribing genealogical and historical data and
placing it online for the free use of all researchers.
This website is in need of a dedicated host!
This is a continuation of our original
Illinois Genealogy
Trails project and we are excited about this opportunity to
expand into other states. We welcome your feedback and comments, and of course, your data contributions.
We're looking for folks who share our dedication to putting
data online and are interested in helping this project grow.
If you think you might be interested in hosting a county
website such as this one, please view the Volunteer Page for further information
and contact
Kim.
