Welcome

Livingston County Michigan
Historical & Genealogical Project
Hosted
by

|
|
Please note,
effective
immediately, the
|
Livingston County Michigan Historical &
Genealogical Project
|
is in no longer affiliated with USGenWeb.
Keep in mind I did NOT quit MIGenWeb, Jan Cortez de-linked me without
cause!
I am pleased to be affiliated with the American History & Genealogy
Project and the American Local History Network which IMHO are much more
like the original project that was started so long ago.
This site is NOT going to disappear, it will continue as always.
It will continue to offer
the very best materials for Livingston County MI. The url is not
changing, people WILL know how to find the site, of that I am
sure.

Maybe
your people were just over the border from Livingston? Or...maybe they
moved back and forth...ancestors did that to confuse us you know.
<g> Here are the counties that
border Livingston. Also be sure to check out
the
MARDOS Memorial Library as there are tons of things on line for
all over the country.

My
Dad,
who always taught me that "Anything that anyone can do with
their ten fingers, you can do with yours," and so I always try before giving up.
|
My
mom, who taught me to continue to always love, hold no grudges, rather PROVE the
naysayer was wrong, no matter what
the past or present holds.
