Welcome to my insanity. I have been tracing my family's ancestry since 1980. I am currently in the process of updating and adding information. While my main audience is my extended family, hopefully my research will help other's as well. I hope that this opens up to my family, the legacy of their forebears.
Place names in the New World are the historic renderings. For the Old World, the place names are as rendered today. The exception is cemeteries. As the reader might wish to visit the grave, their places are rendered as today. Not all have been converted to this standard.
There are times when sources do not agree. Even original documents sometimes are divergent. The old joke about women who age 8 years between each census does occur. Sometimes these are just transcription errors, or sometimes outright lies for whatever reason. I have tried to flag these discrepancies.
This is an ongoing work, and should not be considered complete. I continue my research, as well as documentation. If your line matches part of mine, do check back on occasion and see if further data has been added in that part. You can use the Update Listing to see my latest changes. I usually update this site twice a month, on or around the 15th and the last day of the month
Corrections are always greatly accepted. Sometimes my fingers move faster than my brain.
