Placer County GenWeb

My name is Jeannette Harper and I am your 'host' for the Placer County GenWeb site.

I have over 40 years of genealogy experience with family research. In the past, I have volunteered with the Placer County Archives as well as transcribing records for El Dorado County. I have researched my husband's ancestors who were pioneers to Nevada, Placer and El Dorado Counties. I am also a full time web designer.

Should you need to contact Jeannette, the on-line form is available for that purpose.

And if at any time you find a broken link, misspelled words or feel something else needs to be added to this website, then I invite you to let me know!

It stretches from the suburbs of Sacramento to Lake Tahoe and the Nevada border. Because of the expansion of the Sacramento metropolitan area, Placer County is one of the fastest growing counties in the state. The county seat is Auburn.
