RALEIGH COUNTY, WEST VIRGINIA, BIOGRAPHIES BIOS

RALEIGH COUNTY

In May of 1997, this project was organized by Jeff Murphy, using the established KY
Biographies Project as a model. State coordinators were sought to set up their own
state project. They were offered the system design and tools created for the KY
project, but were free to set up their project in any way they chose.

I am Nyla CREED DePauk, and I am the coordinator for Raleigh County, West Virginia.
Volunteers are needed to enter, edit, and archive the biographies for each project.
If you have biographies you would like to donate for Raleigh County, please
contact me . If you would like to volunteer to coordinate a county, please contact the
West Virginia State Coordinator Tina Hursh .
