The Kittitas County Genealogical Society has been a great help with the Kittitas County Home Page. Especially member, Sally Robins who's efforts have got this information online. Check the out books the society has for sale.

The society also has donated two databases for use at this site: Early Kittitas County Births (1891-1907) and Kittitas County Deaths (1882-1907) - for which I am very thankful.

The Kittitas County genealogical Society was formed in 1983 as a non-profit, non-political, and non-sectarian organization. Gifts to KCGS are tax deductible.
