We hope you enjoy our New Look and ask for your patience as we are still in the process of moving our Porter genealogy records over to our new home. This is taking some time as we are also updating our old code to meet the ever changing technology and keep up with current web standards.

We are always happy to search our many records that have not been put online to see if we have information relating to someone you are researching for. We are also very happy to get information you would like to share. Please use the form submitter found on our "Contact Us" Page.

 

*Note: Because of the large size of the Database, and problems with spammers posting ads on our Guest Book, rather than stop sharing them, the Database and Guest Book are stored off of our main site, and are not included in our site wide search.
