Genealogy Trails - Finding Ancestors wherever their trails lead    Welcome to West Virginia Genealogy Trails!

Welcome to
West Virgina Genealogy Trails
History and Genealogy

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.


WANT TO HELP?

We're looking for folks who share our dedication to putting data online and are interested in helping this project be successful.  If you are interested in joining our group, view our Volunteer Page for further information and then contact Kim .

If you are interested in adding your families' information this website, email Kim.  We'll be happy to help your families' obituaries, news items and other historical data find its new home here at West Virginia Trails History and Genealogy, where it will remain free for all to view.

WE REGRET THAT WE ARE UNABLE TO DO PERSONAL RESEARCH FOR YOU.
