About the INGenWeb Project: In June 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. If you would like to host a county, please contact State Coordinator: Katy Hestand  Assistant State Coordinators: Judi McGee Burns and Linda Lang
