We use combinations of ten small-scale cosmic microwave background anisotropy data sets from the UCSB South Pole 1994, ARGO, MAX 4 and 5, White Dish and SuZIE experiments to constrain cosmogonies. We consider open and spatially-flat-Lambda cold dark matter cosmogonies. Marginalizing over all parameters but $\Omega_0$, the combined data favors an Omega_0 simeq 1 for both open and flat-Lambda models. Excluding the smallest angular scale SuZIE data, an Omega_0 simeq 0.3 (1.0) open (flat-Lambda) model is favored. Considering only multi-frequency data with error bars consistent with sample variance and noise considerations, an Omega_0 simeq 0.1 (1) open (flat-Lambda) model is favored. For both open and flat-$\Lambda$ models, after marginalizing over all the other parameters, a lower Omega_B h^2 (sim 0.005) or younger (t_0 sim 10 Gyr) universe is favored. However, the data do not rule out other values of Omega_0 in the flat-Lambda model and other values of Omega_B h^2 in both models. (abriged)
