Genealogy is more than the research of names, places and dates. It is also the gathering of stories of the lives of the men and women who came before us.

Thanks to the dedicated research by Jan Nuitgen, Bert Kootwijk and Lois Brugman most of the Milder Family tree has been rediscovered. I have attempted to bring it all together along with Ron Milder's research on Gertrude Smith's ancestors into one database that is available in GedCom or FTW format. Periodically as changes and new entries are made to the database, a new GedCom file will be made available and new web pages generated.

The family tree can be searched by selecting a name from a list of all entries or from a surname index. If you have married you will need to search by your maiden name at this time. Later on I will fix it to use married names.

In addition, enhanced pages exist for the family of John and Gertrude Milder that include photos, diaries, letters and biographical data.

Copies of many original documents that are the basis of the research will be scanned and publised later.
