The picture above is of an ancient family tree.

Clicking on the link below will take you to the searchable database of names.  The page that you will land on lists the most frequent 50 surnames in the file and the number of people with that surname.  If you want to search for additional surnames either click on the button on the bottom left-hand corner or click on the search button at the top of the page and enter the given or surname of the person you’re interested in.  Clicking on one of the surnames will produce a page with all people in the file with that surname.

Click on one of the names and detailed information about that person appears.  In addition to information about that person the names of their parents and children also appear if that information is in the file.  Click on one of the names and you will be taken to information about that person.  On the top of the page is a note tab that might include more information. Click on it to see.

Near the top of the page of information for a person are tabs.  The ancestor and descendant tabs will produce a tree chart for that individual.  If there’s a small colored triangle next to a name allows you to move the tree chart further back or forward in time.  A black triangle under the name allows you to view more information for that person.  The number of generations displayed in the tree chart can be controlled by the number of generations shown toward the top of the page.

The other tabs will show you information about an individual or a family arranged in a different manner.  To return to the main website click on the Home button.  Ignore the login button, logging in isn’t required to view the information.

In order to protect a person’s privacy detailed information is only available for people who have passed away.  Living individuals will only have their name displayed although ancestors and descendants can still be identified.
