The security code has been recently changed, to improve ongoing site security. If you 
need the new security code to unlock the tree, just send a note to me, 
Wayne Berthin.    

This is my stab at tracking the "family tree". If you see any typos or errors, please 
let me know. If you know more than I do about some branch of the tree, please send me 
the names and relationships and I will add them. Supporting information such as birth 
dates, death dates and wedding dates helps too. And most of all, if you have 
additional or better photographs of anyone in the tree, I would be very happy to 
receive those.


You can work through the tree by clicking on people or you can find yourself with a  search. Once you have yourself in the center, click on Ancestors to see your parents  and grandparents, or click on descendants to see your children and grandchildren. If  you want to see your brothers, sisters and cousins, then find your grandfather and  click on his decendants.

If you believe you are related to some of the old folks at the very top of the tree,  then maybe we are long lost "cousins". I would be pleased to hear from you, and to  share ancestry information.

I would like to thank all the many people who have helped me with the information for  the tree, and in particular George Berthin, Ingrid Alisch, Rainer Berthin, Josi Knodel  and Leah Treder.
