What's New

This website was launched in late October 2016.  From time to time I will add or modify material, and significant additions and changes will be summarized here.  If you are revisiting the site, check this page first to see what's new since your last visit.

August 2021: Republished the site in a new format more user-friendly for smartphones and tablets; the URL and content did not change.

4 January 2017: Added information about Gottfried (Godfrey) Siever/Sivert to the Remaining Mysteries page, taken from testimony he gave in 1787 to support his claim against the British government.

23 November 2016: Added a detailed genealogical report listing the ancestors of Johann Wilhelm Seeber and his siblings.  Go to the Genealogical Details page and click on the link to view the report.
