Little By Little....

Little by little, I'm getting this site revision done. The newest revision has been to the Matthias Loy (to America 1733) page. You'll see what page has had the latest revisions by the "last updated" day/time at the web page header. (If no "last updated" is there, that's a page I've yet to revise.) I'm also making the counters more consistent on all the pages, so you can get an idea which has been most viewed.

I know when I get to Loy lines not of my Martin (to America 1741) for these charts, I've had to rely on research other than my own. It gets a little knotty in areas where I've received discrepancies in information. But, as Martin's family is a handful in itself, I wouldn't have time to investigate further. Rather than eliminate these charts, I've listed what I can with caveat. As mentioned many times, I think would be ideal if those researching these other Loy lines could send me links to their *well-sourced and documented* family tree websites. Then, I could post the links from my site so others could have a resource for further information.

Keep watching for more updates!

Still Working On Site

The latest addition has been the "last modified" date/time stamp which will appear on each of the pages, once all have been revised. If you go to Martin Loy's (to America 1741) link, you can see the stamps on his and George's pages. Although the main (index) page shows a "last modified" time stamp, it only reflects when the index page has been revised. Many times I've revised other pages on the site, but unless I reload the index page, the time stamp was never updated. This new way, you can see how current each page is.

Still Doing Loy Website Overhaul

As you may or may not have noticed, this current update to the Loy website is the most extensive I've made since its 1997 creation. I think this project is going to take at least another week, to have everything running smoothly. So please be patient, especially when you click on a link that goes to another part of my site, only to get an error message. I'm still moving pages into newly created directories on the web server and many of the links have yet to be updated.

For this reason, I've also removed the search box from the main page, as it will need to be updated as well. (I have to put all the search info in manually, so it may be the last to be reinstated.) The main page still needs tweaked so column layering will be constant. But I decided the other (easier) pages should be revised first and finish the main page later so at least all the links will be in order.

As you'll notice, I incorporated more Javascript links to open in new, smaller windows from the main home page. The smaller windows will make navigation much easier.

Eventually I plan on adding more images of old documents pertaining to the Martin Loy (to America 1741) line, such as copies of original wills, land records, marriage records, death records, war records, etc.

But first...to finish the update...
