Our number 1 project, since August of 1995, has been tracking down our roots. You can see our efforts by looking at our Family Index (about 45K and in table form [takes a while to load]), our Surname Index (about 50K), or dive right into the Alphabetical List of everyone in our database. We're beginning to believe that some of our ancestors are aliens of the space variety. They've magically appeared in a location with no tracks as to where they've come from!
In addition to working on our family tree, we're trying to help the genealogy community in general. Some of our on-line projects are:
 |
Transcribing the Biographical History of Pottawattamie County, Iowa into web pages | ||
|
STEINKEs World Wide | ||
|
A couple of pages from the 1870 Minnesota Census | ||
|
1870 Platte Co., Nebraska census. | ||
|
Createing a LOOMIS surname site (this includes the variant spellings of LOMAS, LUMMIS, etc.) | ||
|
Hosting the Scott Co. MN GenWeb Project pages | ||
|
Participating in the Tombstone Project as coordinator for the states of Alaska, Iowa, Nebraska, and Wisconsin | ||
|
Helping out the US GenWeb Archives by acting as file manager for the states of Alaska and Wisconsin |
While we've got a lot of genealogy bookmarks, we don't want to try to replicate the efforts of Cyndi Howells. Visit Cyndi's List to find almost every genealogy related site on the web. However, we would like to highlight a couple of our favorite sites:
