The Women of Gold Hill Project is an ongoing research effort to document the women of Gold Hill, past and present.
If you have photographs, information, newspaper clippings, etc. about the women of Gold Hill and would be willing to share, please contact us at joan@fewrpa.com or 303-442-3373. The Table of Contents of the current document is below.
In a few months we will be publishing the first edition of this document. It will be burned on DVDs and sold for a modest sum to benefit the Gold Hill Museum.
Rebecca Pughe (1828-1907) – has a Great Great Granddaughter in Wales, U.K. and we would love to contact her.
