The summary of the website content indicates it includes the following:

• Emigrants, Refugees and Prisoners-2003, including new information on nearly every family listed in my previous 3 volumes. I have also been able to extend back family lines several generation on some of the families such as the Burkholder family of Gerolsheim and others.

• The revised and updated version of The Stauffer Families of Switzerland, Germany and America and my unpublished, Shank Manuscript.

• The long awaited Graff/Groff family outline. German records indicate that Christian Groff of Donegal Township was not the father of "Swamp" John Groff of Martic Township. Find out how they are related as well as new family information on other Groffs in Germany and Pennsylvania.

• The long awaited Good Family outline

• A number of documents dated from as early as 1702 relating to Ibersheim and it's inhabitants as well as the surrounding farms and villages inhabited by Mennonites, such as Mückenhäuserhof, Alsheim, Rudelsheim and Guntersblum. The new information has clarified relationships to many of the families that lived in that area from 1702 to 1800, including the following families; Stauffer, Hiestand, Hackman, Berky, Miller, Meyer, Brubacher, Forrer, Seitz, Gochenauer and others.

• Five new tenant lists in the 1700's for Ibersheim.

• Records for areas of the Pfalz that did not have Mennonite census records which show the origin of many immigrants who arrived in Pennsylvania, including Neff, Strickler, Stauffer, Ruth, Rohrer, Burkholder, Graf, Hershey and many others. Many of these areas without census records had a number of Mennonite families, included in the communities in and around Zweibrücken, Ruchheim, Monsheim, Altleiningen, Battenberg, Erpolzheim, Assenheim, Schifferstadt, Dirmstein, many farms in the Kirchheimbolden area on the west side of the Rhine River as well as Hasselbach, Streichenberg, Berwangen and more on the east side of the Rhine River and Geissburg, Riedseltz, and Niederröern in Alsace.

• Updated ship lists of Mennonites who arrived in Pennsylvania between the years 1709 and about 1800. There are a number of changes since the printing of my previous lists as it becomes clearer as to who was Mennonite and who was not.

• New research reports updated regularly.
