Custom Search

Ironically, Google will give you fairly thorough search results if you will leave my site and search from their main page including my domain as a search term —

• An Every-Name-Index Hub for indices to the family group sheets only.
• A publicly accessible http://dgmweb.net/FGS/ folder where family group sheets can be browsed by the husband's name.  Note that the /Lyon/ folder contains all spelling variations of the name, including those beginning with "de."  Also, there is a /GKC/ folder that contains just my GRONINGER / KRONINGER / CRONINGER kin.
• A Census home page with links to the various census hubs.
• A DNA Hub with links to my DNA projects, analyses, and other information on DNA testing.
• A Pedigree Charts home page with links to the root individuals of the pedigrees.

And two pages to make it easy for my near relatives to jump to our "gee whiz" ancestors:

Not every file on this site fits into the above categories, so…
The links below are intended to help you find pages not linked directly from the above.
