JOSEPH: North and West | Indiana Genealogical Resources About The USGenWeb Project The goal of the USGenWeb project is to create a global library for genealogy research. This library provides electronic versions of genealogical resources and volunteers to answer research questions via the Internet. Through Query and Surname pages, researchers are made aware of those who might have ties to the family being researched, thus the USGenWeb project helps facilitate your research. The USGenWeb project seeks to leverage at the County level a variety of research tools, including Lookups, Queries and Surname lists, and transcriptions of public records, using the wide accessibility of the Internet. The USGenWeb Project is an outgrowth of the original Ky Gen Web Project. In June, 1996 volunteers were found who were willing to coordinate the collection of databases and generally oversee the contents of the web page of the state of Indiana. If you would like to get involved with Indiana USGenWeb, please contact Lena Harper, the Indiana USGenWeb coordinator. The Assistant State Coordinators are Jim Cox and Karen Zach. Volunteers are needed and cheerfully accepted.
