20 Jan 2007 Minor corrections. Link check.

SIEBENBÜRGEN Added 4 Malmkrog church register index files (the 'early' years). RESOURCES Updated "Siebenbürgische Familienforschung" indexes with Jg.21 (2005) & Jg.23 (2006) (1 new page created by reducing from 7 to 6 years per page).

The pdf file was part of my website from the beginning in Jan 2002, and expanded to the current html format in Jul 2005.

The appearance of my pages wasn't adversely affected by this error. 2) On June 11, it was discovered that all Freepages entries were disappearing from Google. Although Google had just upgraded their algorithms, this should not have affected so many page listings. My pages now seem to be all listed again.

03 Apr 2003  More image enhancements. Some coding fixes (anchors).

Year in Review
: I am still very pleased (and amazed) when people make the effect and respond with compliments. Thank-you again! Responses with requests are not surprising but that most have been in German was unexpected. Contact was made with several branches of family.

: Short term - continue to expand main sections with documentation from my research files, and enhance existing pages (faster-loading or better pictures or additional information, whatever is appropriate). Long term - prepare parallel translations of all texts. There are also several database projects on the go, which are to be included on the site. (See Second Anniversary)

03 Sep 2002 &
15 Sep 2002
Have discovered that some (at least 5) of my SIEBENBÜRGEN webpages have been 'appropriated' without permission by 2 other sites.  
09 Aug 2002 SCHLESIEN Added "Strehlen (ev. luth.) - Heiraten (Marriages) 1838-1908".  
20-30 Jun 2002 Rootsweb Freepages down for several days during transfer to new servers. Afterward, this website needed only the removal of obsolete files and directories which were restored by the move.  
16 Jun 2002 SCHLESIEN Added excel spreadsheet file to EINWOHNERBUCH sub-directory. I tried several formats, but this table is way too big (135 columns & 2800 rows) for html or pdf and can't be sub-divided. Added "Großburg" page - cannot find any comparable pages on the web. Removed old redirects and broken links.  
07 Jun 2002 SCHLESIEN Added 12 new files on the "1935 Einwohnerbuch für Stadt und Kreis Strehlen". Add "slice boxes" to SEARCH box function.  
21 May 2002 Added Gist-in-Time & Google Translate to the TRANSLATION page.  
13 May 2002 Counter has logged 1000 visitors!  
21 Apr 2002 Google has recently spidered my site! The most recent updates aren't included but more searchers will find my site. Google is a very popular search engine and searches all file formats. Rootsweb is spidered every few months.  
20 Apr 2002 New subdirectory created to consolidate Silesian church history files & redirects left at old locations. Additions to various Silesian Recipe pages (now complete). CANADA-USA "Grace Lutheran Church" now posted.  
24 Mar 2002 SCHLESIEN Added remaining pages for "Oma WIEHLES Rezepte" (Gemüse, Fische, Braten, Saucen, Salate, Kompote und Speisen, Backzeug (1&2), Verschiedenes, Menü). Minor corrections on other pages.  
17 Mar 2002 Added WIEHLE "Ahnhof Kuschlau", SCHLESIEN "Stadt Strehlen" & "Oma WIEHLES Rezepte" (with "Suppen"), revised and expanded SIEBENBÜRGEN "Haushaltsgegenstände - Domestic Articles"  
03 Mar 2002 Added this WEBSITE HISTORY page. More minor corrections. Added more pictures to various SIEBENBÜRGEN pages, added pages on handcrafts, furniture, ceramics.  
20 Feb 2002 Announcement for "new Freepages website" appears in Rootsweb Review. About 300 visitors are logged in the next few days.   
18 Feb 2002 Uploaded minor updates and corrections as well as new pages: RESOURCES Links-1 & Links-2 (verified hyperlinks), GERMAN-DEUTSCH Germania (finally finished the introductory essay), Germanic Tribes, SIEBENBÜRGEN Peschendorf, Lieder.  
17 Feb 2002 Registered the site with Biggi's List and Rootsweb Regional Resources. (The new entries are not actually seen until Mar 18 and Mar 8).  
01-12 Feb 2002 Uploaded most of the remaining files (69 html files now on site). Corrections to code.  
31 Jan 2002 Opened 'account' at siteLevel for a search engine. Revised SEARCH webpage. siteLevel is free and spiders Adobe Acrobat files (PDF) as well as HTML. Lots of freedom to customize format. Since Rootsweb does not support Frontpage extensions, I couldn't use the Frontpage scripts for counter, search forms, or table of contents.  
27-31 Jan 2002 Created directory structure and started uploading files. Added Rootsweb counter. Index page entry appears on Freepages directory ('U') within a couple of days.  
25 Jan 2002 After almost 2 years of website development, have finally applied for and received webspace at Rootsweb Freepages. The proposed site and some files were already too big to post on most free sites and too expensive to be hosted privately. Also Rootsweb will give the site the exposure it needs to be used because of the domain's structure and automated links as well as my pages being in the "right" neighbourhood thematically.
