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 Kim.
(Enough knowledge to make a basic webpage and a desire to transcribe data is required)

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.

Originally part of Billings County.  Voters elected to seperate from Billings County in 1910, but litigation prevented formal organization of the county in 1910. The territory in the surrounding area was colloquially referred to as Rattlesnake Flats due to large number of the snakes found in the area. The region was dubbed Golden Valley in 1902 after a group of land surveyors noticed that the sunlight gave the surrounding grasses a distinct golden color. - Wikipedia
