lines. |

I have a profile on the "Find a Grave" website. I also link to their tombstone records when I find them. Whenever you see next to a person on my pages, click on it to go to their tombstone record. I uploaded 20 photos and have created 1 memorial page. |
[1] | I have
created a page for sourcing individuals.
If you see [1] next to someone you can click it to determine which
references were used. The source is then linked to the book at
the bottom of the page. If the book is available online I link to
it. The sources page can be used as an index of many of the direct ancestors on my website. |
Direct ancestors on my page linked to large pedigree charts have this symbol. | |
Individuals
on my pages that are linked to my Ancestry.com tree have this symbol. Note that a subscription to Ancestry.com is required to view the linked tree records which are public. |

Ancestors of nobility who have pages on Wikipedia will have this symbol next to their name. Clicking on it will go to the page. | |
A number of ancestors of nobility appear on The Peerage which can be useful as it often provides detailed source material. I link to their record with this symbol. |

DNA Research |
All of my family members have tested with Ancestry.com. I have also tested with 23andMe and yDNA with FamilyTree DNA. A number of my surname pages show the DNA research I have done on that line as well as where matches connect to the different branches. I have made several exciting discoveries on several of my lines using DNA tools. Some recent findings include verifying connections on the Hawk and Young surnames. |
