INGenWeb Project

In March and April, 1996, a group of genealogists organized the Indiana Comprehensive
Genealogy Database. The idea was to provide a single entry point for all counties in
Indiana,
where collected databases would be stored. In addition, the databases would be indexed and
cross-linked, so that even if an individual were found in more than one county, they could be
located in the index. This project became known as INGenWeb PROJECT.

Volunteers are needed who are willing to coordinate the collection of databases and generally
oversee the contents of the web page.
