My Ahnentafel

This is my ahnentafel through eight generations. I will link to my articles written about these individuals as they are posted. Additional articles beyond the main biography post will be noted after the person's name and dates.

For any of my readers not familiar with what an ahnentafel is, please look here for an explanation. Basically take the individual and double their number to find their father. To find the mother, take the father's number and add one.

If you see any names with which you are familiar or if you see errors, which there are undoubtedly some, I would love to hear from you. Please click on the yellow Contact Me button to the left of the blog to get in touch with me.
