This week’s blogging prompt is the State of Wyoming. Blog about an ancestor or your families connection to Wyoming. If you don’t have any connections to Wyoming, find a Wyoming resource useful for genealogy research to highlight and write about. This week’s prompt runs from 11/3/2013 – 11/9/2013. If you choose to follow along, I would appreciate a mention to the Hidden Genealogy Nuggets website.

Since I do not have any family connections to Wyoming, I will highlight one resource from this state.
The Wyoming State Archives has a fair amount of resource materials available online. From their main page, click on “Database and Inventories”. Once you get there, you will have these record types to explore.
- Death Certificates
- Wyoming Newspapers
- City Directories (coming soon according to the website)
- State Directories
- Map Database
If you have family connections be sure to check out this website as well as the ones listed below.
