Thank you’s are due to W. Roger and Roberta Peeples, the original Yolo County CAGenWeb Project Coordinators, who created this web site in November 1996. They maintained the web site until June, 1999,when responsibility for the web site was turned over to Peggy and Pat Perazzo.

As of March 2007, we have returned to maintain the Yolo County CAGenWeb web site. We also want to thank Richard Wilson, who served as the State Coordinator for the CAGenWeb Project for many years, for his support and valuable advice that he provided to us prior Martha A.
