Navigation Tips and Icons:

Each page should have a "crumb trail" that you can use to return to any directory in the path from the root.  If you linked to a page from a different directory, you can just use your browsers "back" button to return to the previous page.
Links preceded with this text will link to a site outside of the Carrollton-Farmers Branch TXGenWeb.  We have no control over the content or existence of the target.  If you find a broken link, please contact the site coordinator so we can remove or repair it.

Who owns this website?

Edward Lynn Williams is the coordinator for the Carrollton-Farmers Branch TXGenWeb site.   He  maintains the website and all information located here. 

Information posted at the site has been donated by the dozens of volunteers and visitors who just want to share and help others.  In some cases, they will retain copyright to that material.


Can I copy the information posted at the website?

All information can be used for personal research but may not be copied to other websites without permission of the contributor and the site coordinators.  We impose this restriction as we are continuously applying updates and additions as new information is submitted by volunteers.  We do, however, allow other websites to create links to our website as long as they do not charge for access to it.


How accurate is the information at the website?

We strive to provide the most accurate and complete data as possible.  Keep in mind that when using information from this, or any other website, mistakes can, and do, occur.  It is always a good idea to check original source documents whenever possible.  We appreciate all corrections and additions.  Because the information posted comes from a number of different sources, we cannot assume responsibility, legally or otherwise, for its accuracy.


Can I contribute information to the website?

We encourage individuals to contribute information to this WebSite.  Not only will you be helping others to discover their genealogical and historical roots but it is also great way to locate relatives and others researching like surnames.  We are always looking for old articles, obituaries, and other information of historical or genealogical interest to post.  We recognize and credit the contributor of information unless the request is to remain anonymous.


Can you send me my family history?

We wish genealogy was that easy.  While we will do all we can to assist you in your research, you will need to do most of the work.  Sometimes family histories are submitted to this website for posting, so be sure to check the People Index page.
