Welcome to the
San Luis Valley
Genealogy Gateway
Page
... your portal to original data vital to the genealogical researcher.
The San Luis Valley of Colorado is bordered by the Sangre de Cristo Mountains to the east, the Collegiate Peaks to the north, the San Juan Mountains to the west, and New Mexico to the south.  Please visit our many Valley genealogical county sites that contain original data that are a result of many hours of crawling on our bellies through cemeteries, delightful conversations with eccentric individuals with deep roots in the Valley, and sneezing in the dusty back rooms where much of the county archive and church material are stored.  Happy hunting!
