Use American History and Genealogy Project www.ahgp.org and American Local
History Network www.alhn.org as possibilities for genealogical research.
Linda & Dan Deslauriers were so helpful in my research in the San Luis
Valley.
Good Luck!

In addition, the San Luis Valley Healthy Communities Initiative has shifted focus
