This web site currently consists of nearly 14,000 pages of genealogical
data. The largest sections consist of family group sheets (over 11,000
pages) and census extractions (over 1300 pages), while there are smaller
sections for DNA projects (about 200 pages) and pedigree charts (about
75 pages). These sections can be reached via:
-
An Every-Name-Index
Hub for indices to the family group sheets only.
-
A publicly accessible /FGS/
folder where family group sheets can be browsed by the husband's name.
-
A Census
home page with links to the various census hubs.
-
A publicly accessible /Census/
folder where the census pages can be browsed.
-
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 charts.
Plus home pages for my father's and mother's surnames:
-
Our
Danish Roots a small section dedicated to my father's Danish
ancestry, linked to a regional Danish DNA project.
-
STRAUB
Home Page a large section dedicated to STRAUB and similar
German surnames, linked to a STRAUB Y-DNA surname project.
And two files to make it easy for my grandparents' descendants 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.

to Other Content
These files constitute a small fraction of the material
on this web site. As time permits, I'm gradually incorporating this
material into the Sources of the relevant family group sheets, rather
than leaving them as separate files as was my practice when I began this
site. Therefore, this list is getting shorter, rather than longer,
although it won't go away entirely because not every file is suitable for
incorporation into a family group sheet. Please note that the
bulk of the documentation on this site already resides on the family
group sheets and is not linked below.
