I would be happy to provide the complete gedcom file if you are interested. Simply email me and I’ll return the file (it is currently 36MBs—so you may prefer I snail-mail a CDROM.)

To make this site more interesting I’ve started to add photographs and personal histories of my ancestors. I am also willing to share the photographs. The images on the website are very low resolution so as not to consume all my available disk space. I would be willing to provide the high-resolution images via CDROM. I would also be interested in obtaining photographs that you may have.

My primary interest in setting up this site was to create the software that displays the genealogical data. My friend, Chuck, and I wrote the programs that create the alphabetic indexes and the programs that display family and pedigree information. These latter programs create the web pages dynamically via CGI programs that access the data directly from the gedcom file. This greatly reduces the disk space required for this site. It does require your ISP provide access to CGI scripting. If you would be interested in the programs—we are willing to share them also.

You might be interested in visiting Chuck’s website to see how he customized his site.
