Welcome to the
Genealogy
Trails
website for
the
State
of
Oklahoma.
My
name is
Linda
Craig and
I
am
the
coordinator
for
this
state
site.
I
am
sorry
that I
cannot
do
personal
research
at
this
time,
but I
will
be
more than happy
to
steer
you in
directions
that might
be
of
use. 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.
Please feel free to copy
any information
for your
own
personal
use.
However,
nothing
may
be
used for
profit or
copied
to
another
non-profit
genealogy
group
without
written
approval.
Please
feel
free
to
link to
any
of our
sites.
Thanks for
looking
at
our
state.
We are in
need of
individual county
hosts.
Oklahoma is
the
home of
many
universities and
colleges located
thru
out the
state. We
have
recently had
the
honor
of becoming
home
to the
Oklahoma
Thunder
pro
basketball
team.
We're
looking
for folks
who
share our
dedication
to
putting data
online
and
are
interested
in
helping
this
project
be
as
helpful
and
useful
to
researchers
as
it
can
be.

you
are
interested
in
joining
our group
as a
county
host,

contributions.
