This page contains links to the PDF articles and booklets I have compiled for families of some of my direct ancestors. These are stored on a Google drive because the information is already here on WeRelate.org and the documents have a large file size which is preferable not to store on WeRelate. Sixth Generation BookletsThese booklets use my great, great, great grandparents as the focus. They were initially smaller articles but thanks to sharing from distant cousins there is a lot more information and so I have tried to repay their efforts and present a more complete family story. The current versions are compiled from a collection of articles and they are slowly being edited to eliminate some repetition and to place all sources at the end of the booklet. There are booklets for most families without a linked booklet, however they require a lot further work and so I have not made them available yet.
Family History ArticlesThese articles are examples of how I write all of my family history stories. The families in these articles are beyond the seventh generation in my pedigree.
Sharing and CopyrightI would not have been able to produce any of these articles or booklets if it had not been for many people freely sharing photographs and information or the many volunteers who make information on births, deaths, marriages and other records freely available on genealogy websites. Personally I appreciate the idea of Copyleft and Creative Commons which is the type of copyright licence which is used for all information on WeRelate. The licence for my articles and booklets is a Creative Commons Attribution/Share Alike. Attribution must also go to every person who is listed as a source because they also contributed to the content. In some instances they have provided or corrected relevant dates, some have shared stories, photos and other family information, some have created their own articles and given permission for this to be included within the bigger booklet. |
