About This Site

This web site first came online on June 12, 1996 as part of the Kentucky GenWeb Project, formed in March 1996. In July 1996 the USGenWeb Project was organized to extend the idea to other states.

The county pages are all maintained by volunteers, and coordinated by email. I like to think of the USGenWeb Project as being like an old-fashioned community quilt. Each volunteer gets to design his or her square however they like, so long as they can all be fit together. We meet at the master page to sew our squares together, and presto, we've got us a quilt.

This page is designed and maintained by Teri Pettit. Permission is granted to copy any information, images, or links from this page, so long as it is not used for commercial purposes.

The titling font used in the Rowan County banner boxes is 26 pt Adobe Caslon Semibold Italic, with capitals in Adobe Caslon Semibold Italic Swash.
