Genealogy

Our goal
at Genealogy Trails is to transcribe and
post genealogical data so that family researchers can track
their ancestors through time, throughout the
country.

Available for Adoption
This website
needs a dedicated host to make it the best that
it can be! If you think that you may be
interested in volunteering to host this site,
please view our Volunteer
Information page and email
Kim.
(A desire to
transcribe data and the know-how to make a basic
webpage is required)
We hope you will
consider contributing your Obits, Biographies
and Pioneer Family History. Send you
contributions to Christina.
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.
Join our
mailing lists for researchers looking
to connect and share information. Our Rhode
Island sites are covered under the North-Eastern
Coastal States Region list. You never know who
you might meet and what family data they may
share with you -- it could start a whole new
branch of the family!
We also use the
mailing lists to announce our website updates.
Remember to look around at our other
states and consider donating
your source information -- every little bit
helps someone.
The county was
formed in 1746 by the transfer of part of Bristol County,
Massachusetts, to the state of Rhode
Island, and was the subject of a long-running
border dispute. It is located on a
peninsula bordered by Massachusetts on the
northeast, Narragansett Bay on the
southwest, and Mount Hope Bay on the
southeast. The county was named after Bristol,
England and is one of the smallest counties in
the United States.
