Adopt Me!!


Hi, and welcome to the Genealogy Trails site for Jackson County Oregon. As you can see this county needs to be adopted by someone who can devote more time to filling it up with all kinds of free genealogy data. If you think you might be the person for the job, click here to see what hosting entails.

I am also looking for any source contributions you may have, please send them to me, Shauna Williams, and I will put them online right away. Every little bit is important and could be the break through someone else is looking for!

Please look around the Oregon and Genealogy Trails sites, there is a ton of information already up and we are adding more every day. Good Luck in your search and please feel free to email me with any questions, comments or contributions!
 


Named for President Andrew Jackson, Jackson County was formed in 1852 from Lane County and the unorganized area south of Douglas and Umpqua Counties. It included lands which now lie in Coos, Curry, Josephine, Klamath and Lake Counties. The discovery of gold near Jacksonville in 1852 and completion of a wagon road, which joined the county with California to the south and Douglas County to the north, brought many pioneers.
