Rhode Island Counties




I will be building a page for each county in Rhode Island. The goals for these pages includes: brief summary of county history, highlight of historic events that took place in this county, points of interest in the county, genweb site for the county, census links, vital record links, tax transcriptions, cemetery links, etc. for each county, list of towns for each county. Further down the road I wouldn’t mind giving a one – two sentence footnote for each town, links to town websites. You will also find I’m starting to include some relevant news feeds on the county pages, these can give you an idea of “what’s going on” in the county these days.

You will find the listing of the counties to the right in the sidebar just beneath the “Rhode Island Counties” entry.

There are currently a total of 5 counties in Rhode Island:
