I regret that I am unable to do personal research.


Welcome to Genealogy Trails
Volunteers working to put free historical data online.


                              

My name is Vicki Hartman and as your Lehigh County, Pennsylvania host I try to post as much data online as possible in order to make it freely available to all.
We gratefully accept contributions of raw data such as census information, marriage/birth/death records, obituaries, county histories, biographies, old newspaper items - anything that would help someone build their family tree!!

Biographies Lehigh County was formed in 1812 from parts of Northampton County. Its county seat is Allentown.
