In March and April,1996,a group of genealogists organized the Kentucky
Comprehensive Genealogy Database. The 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. At the same time, volunteers were found who were willing to coordinate
the collection of databases and generally oversee the contents of the web page.
