About the Project

Please use this project to add, research, document, and discuss your ancestors from California. You can add profiles for:

When you find helpful resources for research, please share them here so that others can benefit.

If you have projects related specifically to California, like projects for towns or families centered within the county, you can also add those.

If you have any questions, suggestions, or general thoughts to share, please use the "Discussions" link at the upper right corner of the page.
