Welcome to Wade Hampton Area, Alaska A Proud Part of the Genealogy Trails Group Welcome to the Genealogy Trails website for the Wade Hampton Census Area in Alaska. Our goal is to help you track your ancestors through time by transcribing genealogical and historical data and placing it online for the free use of all researchers. This is a continuation of our original Illinois Trails History and Genealogy Project and we are excited about this opportunity to expand into other states. We welcome your feedback and comments, and of course, your data contributions. If you have transcribed data that you would like to have posted on this website, please send it to us. If you would like to be kept informed of our state and county website updates, subscribe to our mailing lists This Site is Available for Adoption! We are looking for a coordinator for this site.... folks who share our dedication to putting data online and are interested in helping this project be as helpful and useful to researchers as it can be. If you are interested in joining our group as host of this site, view our Volunteer Page for further information and contact Kim.
