Welcome to Genealogy in Mason County, Kentucky!

My name is Marla McCullough and I'm your Mason County KYGenWeb coordinator.

The KYGenWeb is the founding member of the USGenWeb Project, a volunteer group dedicated to keeping genealogy FREE on the Internet. We are not a research service and we have no affiliation with government or libraries. Our goal is to help family researchers by finding and sharing resources on our county and special project websites.

Scroll down, or use the Website Index tab on the right, to start exploring the growing collection of Mason County materials organized here.

All information I have to offer is on-line and I do not respond to individual research questions. Please contact me to contribute materials, register a surname, or report a technical problem with this website. My spam filter will be grateful if you put Mason County in the subject line.

If you find a broken link, the server that hosts the file may be off-line briefly for maintenance. Before contacting me, try again in a couple of hours to see if the file is back on-line. Internal and external web links were validated on February 26, 2020. Due to time constraints, I cannot research unreported change of email address by contributors, or URLs moved by managers of external websites. Regrettably, a broken link may require a former website reference to be removed. Please update your bookmarks. Since 2008, this website has been hosted by Kentucky Kinfolk. Our data files are no longer accessible at the former RootsWeb host server. Thanks!
