Comments about this page
It seems there has been considerable confusion about any connections between the Lenawee County GENWEB page and the Lenawee County Family Researchers home page.  You are at the home page of the Lenawee County Family Researchers.  See above for a link to the Lenawee County GENWEB page.  These are two separate groups, two separate entities.  We share our interest in Lenawee County and family history.  We both are here to help family researchers, specifically Lenawee County family researchers.  We do cooperate with each other and have links to each others pages.  We even share members.  However, we do not sponsor the Lenawee County GENWEB nor do they sponsor the Lenawee County Family Researchers.  We both wish you Happy Researching!
