I have been tracing my family's ancestry since 1980. The software that I used to build the database has gone out of business, so I have converted to another. Now it is my job to add all my sources and flesh it out once again. So, this is incomplete, but working towards completion. If you have questions or corrections, please e-mail me using the link below, and I shall try to respond. Corrections are always gratefully accepted. Please note that that I do not have any information that is not listed here save for that of living people.

The eternal questions among genealogists is whether to use the original place name or the modern place name. Some places have many different names and connections over the years. My solution is to use the original place names for New World locations, and the modern place names for Old World Locations. I am in progress on setting this standard.

I am currently going through the entire database by family lines.

Most Wanted - I am looking for information about these ancestors. Can you help?

• Abt - About - The same as circa. The actual date is probably plus or minus 5. The date is base on a source, or if a marriage date, it is set to age 20, or a year before the first born child.
• Est - Estimate - Same as "About", however these are mainly used for burial dates to ensure that the web event and last review are at the end. It is generally set to two days after death.
• Say - Pure Guess - Guess to help keep the sort correct. Don't quote me!

In French Canada, the tradition was that married women kept their maiden names. I have followed this when accounting for French Canadian marriages.
