 Welcome to the Ungerecht family tree!
-This is for all Ungerechts, although the initial focus at least is on the family that emigrated from Germany to Wisconsin in 1864 - and all of their ancestors and descendants.  Read more about the [[0_UngerechtName|Ungerecht name]].
+The focus, at least for now, is on all ancestors and descendants on the Ungerecht family that emigrated from Germany to Wisconsin in 1864.  Read more about the [[0_UngerechtName|Ungerecht name]], and my 2016 [[110_Meiningen|trip]] to the home land in Germany.
-It is set up as a wiki, with links from one person to another and one family per page.  For privacy reasons, only registered users can see the [[unliving:00_start|descendants]], including living people (no dates or locations for living people). [[Contact]] me for more information.
+This is set up as a wiki, with links from one person to another and one family per page.  In the past, family genealogists would spend months trying to pull information from each family before publishing a book.  Whatever made it before the deadline was included, and follow-up information didn't get sent out.  In contrast, this is a "living" document and can be updated at any time.  And instead of grainy black-and-white photos, clicking on any picture here will get you to a full-size version. For privacy reasons, since this is online, only registered users can see the [[unliving:00_start|modern generations]] that include living people (roughly considered people born after 1920, if not otherwise known). [[Contact]] me for more information.
-These pages can also be exported as a PDF document for printing or viewing (see link on left).  Anybody with information to contribute can [[format#editing pages|edit]] it themselves (with an account) or pass the information on to [[contact|me]].  Pictures and stories are welcome too!
