Digital Archives
The Jefferson County Genealogy Project's goal is to make source records and data available to our visitors. We encourage our visitors to share the source records and data that they've collected so that other researches might benefit from the entire collection. We encourage you to enter your individual Jefferson County records at PA-Roots for ease of whole-state searching. Start at http://www.pa-roots.org/data/index.php?2 for these individual entries. If you have a large set of records that you'd like to contribute please contact me.
