About the West Virginia GenWeb Project

In June of 1996, a group of genealogists organized the West Virginia GenWeb project. The idea was to provide a single entry point for all counties in West Virginia, where collected databases would be stored and queries and lookup volunteers could be posted.

Mineral County Resource Lookup Volunteers

To request a Mineral County lookup from any of the references, click on the address of the owner and ask them politely. The only criteria for this service is that your ancestor must have lived in Mineral County. Due to popular global interest for lookups, we only have time for Mineral County researchers, Sorry Y'all! As you can see, volunteers are needed. If you can help out, please contact Patti McDonald or Michelle Staggs. Also we would like to take a minute to thank Mary, Debbie, and Ron and Barbara for all their help to better serve the genealogical community for the Mineral County WVGenWeb.
