Site Navigation
The main site navigation is through the tree on the left hand of the screen. The tree is arranged by topics and sub-topics. Sub-topics are accessible by clicking on any topic that has a + sign next to it. Alternately, each page of this web site contains a navigation box on the bottom. The site can be scrolled through one page at a time or directly scrolled to the last page and then back to the very first page. The total number of pages, called articles, in the Grand county site are also shown in the navigation box.

COGenWeb Project
In March and April of 1996 a group of genealogists got together and organized the Kentucky Comprehensive Genealogy Database Project. Their idea was to provide a single entry point for all counties in Kentucky, where collected databases would be stored. In addition, the databases would be indexed and cross-linked, so that even if an individual were found in more than one county, they could be located in the index. Volunteers were then found who were willing to coordinate the collection of databases and generally oversee the contents of these county web pages.
In June of 1996, as the Kentucky project was nearing completion, the concept came about to extend this idea to each of the remaining states. As with the Kentucky project, volunteers were found to host the state pages and USGenWeb was launched. The USGenWeb Project is now a national organization helping to keep all the sites interconnected and with relative uniformity. Since its inception, the project has and will maintain one central idea: an area for FREE collection and dissemination of data.

I am unable to do your personal research. I do not live in Grand county or in Colorado and I do not have access to additional records. If you do not see the information you are seeking in this site, I do not have it as everything I have is posted in this site.
