County Coordinator My name is Joe Markovich and I am the MIGenWeb Dickinson County coordinator. If you would like to host a MIGenWeb County page, or assist the project in any other way, please contact the Michigan State Coordinator, Jan Cortez or one of the Assistant State Coordinators Patricia Hamp or Joe Markovich. The Dickinson county site is among 6 other county sites in which I am the coordinator. The map on the left shows the county locations within the state and the proximity to each other. Dickinson county is shown in brown and is located in the Upper Peninsula part of the state. |
MIGenWeb Project
In March and April, 1996, a group of genealogists organized the MIGenWeb Project.
The idea was to provide a single entry point for all Michigan counties, where collected databases would be stored. In addition, the databases would be indexed and cross-linked, so that even if an individual were found in more than one county, they could be located in the index. At the same time, volunteers were found who were willing to coordinate the collection of databases and generally oversee the contents of the web page.

Site Navigation
The main site navigation is through the tree on the left hand of the screen. The tree is arranged by topics and sub-topics. Sub-topics are accessible by clicking on any topic that has a + sign next to it. Alternately, each page of this web site contains a navigation box on the bottom. The site can be scrolled through one page at a time or directly scrolled to the last page and then back to the very first page. The total number of pages, called articles, in the Dickinson site are also shown in the navigation box.
Research and Look Up Request
I am unable to do your personal research. I do not live in Dickinson county or in Michigan and I do not have access to additional records. If you do not see the information you are seeking in this site, I do not have it as everything I have is posted in this site
