Welcome to Jefferson County, Colorado!
This site has moved to: http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~cojefftp/
Please change your bookmarks!
I cannot do lookups, so be sure to visit the "Research Help" section of the site for our Lookup Volunteers. Please be clear and complete when making your request. If you do email one of our lookup volunteers, please do not also post the same query on the Rootsweb Message Board as our volunteers also look there to fill requests.
Jefferson County is situated in the north central part of Colorado, just west of Denver and is considered the "Gateway to the Rocky Mountains." The gold rush brought settlers out to the area in the late 1850s. By 1861, enough people lived in the area to formally create the county, which was named for our third president, Thomas Jefferson. The County Seat of Jefferson is Golden. For more history go to the Jefferson County web site.
Neighboring counties include: Clear Creek, Gilpin and Park on the west, Boulder and Broomfield to the North, Denver and Arapahoe to the east and Douglas to the South.
