If you are interested in joining our group to become the Host of this site, read our volunteer information page
and email
Kim.
Until we get a dedicated volunteer to maintain this site, we'll do the best we can to add data as we come across
it. You can send your
family's raw data (birth/marriage/death, cemetery, census, biography records) to us and we'll include
it on this site.

Weld County was organized as one of the seventeen original
Colorado counties by the First Territorial Legislature on November 1, 1861. Until February 9, 1887, its boundaries
included the area now comprising Weld County, Washington County, Logan County, Morgan County, Yuma County, Phillips
County, and Sedgwick County.
Weld County is named for Lewis Ledyard Weld, a lawyer and territorial secretary. He died while serving in the Union
Army during the Civil War.
