| Demographics: Information about current-day White Co. including a map, weather, etc. | |
| County History: All about the history of the area--time lines, events, etc. Specific historic events have further detail (i.e. the gold rush) | |
| People: How to find people information--be it birth-marriage-death records, census information, burials, bible records, etc. This already includes some Native American information; and will grow to include sections on African-American source information and military information. Anything that has to do with finding a person. | |
| Places: Each town, village or "area" is listed and will route back to a page for the current-day town page. On the town page, you will find locations of libraries, historic societies, links to the town's homepage, church locations in the town, etc. The Land category also includes map information, old and current-day location names (and how they map back to one another), cemetery location information (with links to transcriptions), church locations (with links to any records), etc. | |
| Resources: Includes many resources already found elsewhere on the site and categorizes them so that similar types of resources can all be found in one place: religious/ethnic resources; county, state & national resources; online resources; queries, etc. | |
| Volunteers/Help: An area devoted to volunteer projects that can be used to get information, or donate information to. |
In March & April, 1996, a group of genealogists organized the Georgia Comprehensive Genealogy Database. The idea was to provide a single entry point for all counties in Georgia, 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.
