How to Navigate This Site

Preface
This will give you an idea of how I assembled this website.

Name Index
This will open a list of all the names on the site.

You can click the letters along the top of the index to see surnames that start with that letter.
You can click a surname to see the people with that surname.
You can click the buttons next to a name to go to the Individual, Family, or Pedigree page for that person.

Pedigree
This will open a pedigree chart strting from the most recent person in my line with this surname.

Family Lines
This will open information about each surname, what we know about that surname in our line and provide links to key individuals with that name in our database.

Help
That is this page.

Views

This site has 3 different views for each person: 1) an Individual view, 2) a Pedigree view, and 3) one or more Family views. Any time a person's name is shown in this database, there will be 3 buttons to the right of their name which let you switch to one of these views for that person.

Individual View

The Individual view displays the person's name, notes, photos, events, and families. Any events which have notes, sources, or media will have an image to the right which you can click to view that particular item. Each family member will have 3 buttons to the right of their name so that you can switch to one of the 3 views for that person.

Pedigree View

The Pedigree view displays a 4 generation pedigree chart for the person. The pedigree will display the person's name, birth and death date, and a picture if there is one. Each person's name will have 3 buttons to the right of their name so that you can switch to one of the 3 views for that person.

Family View

The Family view displays a family group for the person (there may be more than one family view for each person). It will list the father, mother, and children in the family, along with their events. Any events which have notes, sources, or media will have an image to the right which you can click to view that particular item. Each family member will have 3 buttons to the right of their name so that you can switch to one of the 3 views for that person.

Note

There are several variations of the family crest or coat of arms for our family names. We've chosen one to show for each line but realize it may not appropriate to associate it with later generations of the families.
