There are 6,288 individuals in the database as of this moment. If you visited the website between last Friday and this morning you may have noticed the server down or a problem with page loading. There were 3 intermittent server problems that I noticed, and behind the scenes I had a database table corruption, which I assume was caused by the server problem.
Because of the corruption I was unable to add records until I had time to troubleshoot the cause and make a repair. I reloaded that particular table data last night and as far as I can tell, everything is working up to par since. Thank the back-up ghods>
Meanwhile, I’ve continued to gather birth, marriage and death records. A conservative estimate of those that I still need to enter sits well over 1000. Most of those records are for collateral lines of descent; names who married into the Sweere line.
Because most of the records are entered into indexes in alphabetical order, I have found that the most efficient way for me to get them into our database is to copy-paste them into a text file, and then work within the text file, by sorting them into families. It saves me time not having to switch between families for each individual alphabetically arranged record while I’m making additions.
Expect to see Dykhoff, Buysee, Stollenwerk, Hofland, Riddering, De Bruyn, Rutten, Geiser and Leimkeuhler additions in the near future from the more recent generations.
I have the following United States Sweere individuals ‘unplaced’ in my notes. If anyone can tell me who they belong to, I would appreciate the help.

Jodi, it’s been a long time – not sure if you’ve ever gotten back to Cazenovia. I was looking for a family tree that you had awhile back – I located a family here in Waunakee from the Peter William family – our grandson’s connected on Facebook.
Also, I found an old picture negative in a wooden developing frame and trying to see who the family is. It looks like it may have been taken in Germany. I had a print made. On one of your sites there was a picture of Joseph Duren, my husband’s Grandfather and it’s possible this is Joseph’s family or maybe his father but need to research more based on #’s in families, etc.
