| In June of 1996, a group of genealogists organized the WVGenWeb Project. The idea was to provide a single entry point for all counties in West Virginia where collected databases would be stored and queries and lookup volunteers could be posted. If you wish to host a county page, please contact, Jeff Kemp State Coordinator of the WVGenWeb Project. Thanks. | |
