history collection

Genealogy is a major issue here and we house a one-of-kind collection of  Las Animas County and the City of Trinidad.  

• Trinidad Obituaries
• All the city directories published
• Large collection of books on southern Colorado
• Building survey of the Corazon de Trinidad
• A selection of mortuary and coroner’s reports
• Complete microfilm of all newspapers published in Trinidad.
• Subscription to Ancestry.com

Notes:

• All items in the History Collection must stay within the room.
• Only paper and pencils may be taken into the History Room.  Lockers will be provided for purses, backpacks, and other personal belongings.
• These archives are provided on a "Search-It-Yourself" basis.  We do not have enough staff to assist in searches.  (We will, of course, provide brief instructions to visitors on the use of the microfilm reader.)
