A number of books have been published about Moffat County and its residents. Do you own one you would be willing to do lookups in????????? Please put your name here! |
| Kathleen Anderson | I do not
live in Moffat Co. I am in CA and never even been to Colorado but quite
a few of my family members settled in Craig, CO it seems just before 1910.
I have been researching the area for several years tracking my family history.
I am wondering if there is any of my info that might be something I could
share? I have read microfilm for the Craig Courier from 1920-1931. I do
mean READ as I gleaned the paper for items that expressed the times and
flavor of the community as well as folks I am researching and copied quite
a big binder of material. My mother who is just shy of 80 yrs old was born
and raised in Craig and has great memories. Her father for a time was a
deputy and night marshall, my GGrandfather was water commissioner and from
time to time wrote a commentary or story for the newspaper. I do not know
what help I could be to you but let me know if there is anyway I might be
assistance. I can do lookups in the following books that I own: Historic Highlights of Moffatt County and Surrounding Areas by Harold R. Babcock Craig Colorado A Pictorial History 1889-1990 by Daniel K. Davidson Where the Old West Stayed Young by John Rolfe Burroughs |
| Pam Russell | I do own a copy of two not-very-common books and I would like to volunteer to do lookups in those books. They are "Blue Mountain Folks" by Doris Karren Burton and "Where the Old West Stayed Young" by John Rolfe Burroughs. I have a personal interest in Moffat County in that my mother-in-law was born in Craig and lost her mother a few weeks later to the flu epidemic of 1918. My mother-in-law's parents were homesteading over in Bear Valley aka Bare Valley, west of Craig. My mother-in-law's autobiography is available online at her granddaughter's website at http://www.hildenbrandt.com/ then click on the link for Frances Russell's autobiography. |
