Hello
and welcome to the Genealogy Trails website for Fauquier County
Virginia. 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 is a
continuation of our original and highly successful Illinois Genealogy
Trails, History and Genealogy Project, and we are excited about this
opportunity to expand into other states. We welcome your feedback
and comments, and of course any data you might want to
contribute. If you have data you would like posted to this
website, please contact me through the EMail link below.
We are looking for people who share our dedication to putting data
online and who are interested in helping this project be as successful
as our Illinois websites are. If you think you might be
interested in joining our group, view our Volunteer Page for further
information and instruction.
You are welcome to browse the information on these pages and at the
many links provided to build the data needed to continue your research
into your family history. Please remember that this information,
in many cases, represents a lot of research done by volunteers who
generously donate their time and their information to this site.
You can show your respect for these efforts by not taking things to use
on other websites and/or to claim as your own. Thank you in
advance for your consideration.
