The Cripple Creek
District Museum
has hundreds of files in
the
archives. The files include photographs,
newspaper articles, documents, letters, scrapbooks,
city directories, death and burial records, marriage
and baptism records and correspondence from
ancestors of the folks who lived in the Cripple
Creek District.
It is best to call ahead for information.

Research Guidelines
- Please
provide a full name if possible. Do not send lists
of surnames or requests such as "Anyone named
Smith." We can only handle a small amount of
requests at a time.
- Be as specific as possible and provide us with
all the information you know about the person you
are researching. The more we know the better we can
help you.
- Please be patient while waiting for a response.
Our staff is very limited and research is conducted
on a first-come, first-served basis. Be aware that
research requests can take up to six weeks for a
response. Phone calls and additional emails will not
expedite your request.
We are a non-profit foundation and rely on admission
fees, gift shop sales and
donations to survive. We respectfully request a
donation of $25 for the first hour and
$15 for each additional hour in order to conduct
research. Copies and/or photographs
require additional fees.
