A Website for Descendants of
John Vibert and Mary Neell
married February 26, 1705/6 in Saybrook Connecticut
Hi everyone
This will be the first update to the site since last October. It consists primarily of 350+ new documents that have been added to the site for families in the first six generations. This completes the addition of all currently-digitized documents for these generations. The list below shows which families have new documents this month. Please also note the information in the Known Problems section. As always, on this site each family is considered to be headed by the Vib-related person, regardless of sex and all documents are tied to this person.
Also, any changes made to the data in my master file have been uploaded into this site's data base as well as included in the PDF book version of the Descendants of John Vibert and Mary Neell which can be accessed using the last button to the left of this section.
For the next year, I plan to concentrate on moving all of the documents I already have in digital formats to the site, starting next month with generation 7 and eventually moving on to generations 8-11. I expect to be able to add about 300 documents each month for a total of about 3000 new documents to be added in 2012 to the 3400 already on the site. That will complete the initial document load.
Other plans for this year include fixing the duplicate notes problem and possibly starting to add documents about my eight female lines. Also, on an ongoing basis I will be adding new data (and correcting existing data) and documents to the site as they come my way. So it will be a very busy year and I hope you will all stop back from time to time to see the progress and perhaps to send along some new data.
In the meantime, I wish you all a safe and happy 2012.

More Information About this Site
More Data:
The site generates pages "on the fly" from a database which contains every person I have data about. It protects the privacy of living persons by not displaying personal data anyone who has no date of death and is less than 110 years old. All persons deemed to be living are shown simply as Living + surname with no other data.
The database itself contains the latest information I have entered into my own FamilyTreeMaker database, updated monthly. Also, some new information on female branches will be available. These include the ancestry of Dorcas Dix, wife of James Vibert (generation 2), Lovina Wrisley, wife of Timothy Vibert (generation 4), Nancy Loomis, wife of Oliver Vibert (generation 5), Margaret Fallow, wife of Watson Vibert (generation 6), Marjorie R. Monteith, wife of Robert K. Vibert (generation 7) and Eileen M. Hawkes, wife of John Vibert (generation 8). Unfortunately, I have little information on Mary Neell, wife of John Vibert (generation 1) and Betty (--?--), wife of John Vibert (generation 3) at this time and no information on their ancestry.

More Features:
In addition, the site design includes full indexing and searching for all names - a major feature missing from the old site. Other features of the site include the ability for each visitor to bookmark persons they return to often, better display of sources and notes, built-in ancestor and descendant charts and improved support of printing.
A popular feature of the old site is also available in the new one but in a slightly different form. All documents relating to each descendant of John Vibert and Mary Neell can be found displayed in the lower part of their page where they can be opened and downloaded.
Finally, in addition to providing a Contact Us direct email facility on the new home page, the new site has a great Suggest feature on the Person pages which allows you to email me information about that person. It automatically generates a subject heading of "Proposed Change: [name of person] and embeds specific information in the body of the message to guide me back to exactly the page you were looking at.
Known problems:
I will be making some additional changes to the new site in the near future to correct problems. One of the major known problems is duplication of notes for certain individuals. I do have a fix for this problem but it has to be done manually - one person at a time so it will gradually be cleared up over the next few months.
Another new problem that turned up recently is that some people are erroneously being treated as Living. That causes their first name to be displayed as "Living" and all of their personal data to be suppressed. It is not supposed to happen if the person has a Date of Death or if their Date of Birth is more than 100 years ago but in some cases it is. I am working with Ancestry.com on a resolution for this problem so there is no permanent fix for it yet but hopefully I will at least have a work-around soon.
Finally, some of the menu functions on the new home page are not working yet - there are no entries under Most Wanted and Reports yet, the Cemeteries link is not yet connected to my cemetery pictures and the Dates and Anniversaries link is working, but very slow. The What's New link is also working but it is not providing any useful information since all the data is considered new by the database. If you spot any other problems, please let me know.
Still available here:
The PDF book version of the Descendants of John Vibert and Mary Neell is still available from this screen as before and will continue to be updated each month until it is moved to the new site. The photo galleries of cemetery pictures are also available here for now but will not be updated. Eventually all the pictures will be moved to the new site as well.
Thanks:
Thanks for all of your interest and support over the past six - almost seven - years. I hope that the new site will continue to be of use to you all in the future. For those of you who have contributed material, a special thanks. For those who have not, please consider doing so.
Ann
And now over to the new:
Please note that once you are on the new home page, you will need to search for a name to get started. You can start by searching for your ancestor and then moving up and down the tree by clicking on the links (as in the old site) or you can start at the top by typing in John Vibert. I recommend that you click the Bookmark button when you are looking at pages you plan to return to - this will allow you to go directly to those pages in the future without searching. Enjoy!
