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...
