The USGenWeb Project consists of a group of
volunteers working together to provide Internet websites
for genealogical research in every county and every
state of the United States. The Project is
non-commercial and fully committed to free access for
everyone.
Organization is by county and state, and this website
provides you with links to all the state websites which,
in turn, provide gateways to the counties. The USGenWeb
Project also sponsors important Special Projects at the
national level and this website provides an entry point
to all of those pages, as well.
Although the basic unit of organization for The USGenWeb
Project is at the county level, State Websites include
very important information as well, including such
resources for postings of unknown county queries, family
reunion bulletin boards, state histories, and maps
showing the changing county boundaries, among others.
Many states also have ongoing projects as diverse as the
transcription of Civil War regiments or the reuniting of
families with lost photos, bibles, etc.
As you explore the state and county websites, you will
see considerable variation as each page or database is
the creation, property and responsibility of an
individual volunteer. But, you will also find that all
of the counties will provide links for you to post
queries, access the state's home page and access the
archives. All of the volunteers who make up The USGenWeb
Project are very proud of this endeavor and hope that
you will find their hard work both beneficial and
rewarding.
The goal of the USGenWeb Project is to make genealogical
information available online. These are stored at the
USGenWeb Archives. You can view the files for Idaho
at the
IDGenWeb Archives. How You Can Help
