Surnames/tags: Colorado Families Colorado Project

The goal of this project is to ...input all families, maybe just the HEAD of the Household from the book, Colorado Families- A Territorial History" by The Colorado Genealogical Society, Inc Denver, Co. 1981

Right now this project just has 5 members,

1. me. I am Carole Taylor.
2. Larry Kenyon
3. Dawn (Meyer) Cannon

5. Mary McCuen

Here are some of the tasks that I think need to be done. I'll be working on them, and could use your help.

• make a profile for the Head of Household
• add the book in sources
• find/add f-a-g memorials
• find/add newspaper items
