Local Oral History Interviews

Thanks to a grant from the Colorado Historical Records Advisory Group Board (CHRAB) and the efforts of our librarians, local oral history interviews on cassette tapes dating back to the ’60s have been digitized and saved. These invaluable stories feature people who lived in all parts of the county and cover topics such as ranching, farming, mining, railroads, and everyday life of the pioneers and their families.
