KYGenWeb
In March and April, 1996,a group of genealogists organized
the Kentucky Comprehensive Genealogy Database. The idea was to provide a single entry
point for all counties in Kentucky, 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. At
the same time, volunteers were found who were willing to coordinate the collection of
databases and generally oversee the contents of the web page.
