Terms of Use

§1. No living persons may be added from the EU-Zone or other places where it illegal to do so. Living U.S. residents may be added where it is legal to do so and with permission from the living person. Tools within the family tree dashboard allow you to mark people as living or private.

§2. All place names must be verified for correct spelling (use www.meyersgaz.org). They should follow this format: Podewils, Belgard, Pommern. (Village, County/Kreis, Territory [Pommern, Neumark, Schlesien, Westpreußen, etc.]). Do not include anything after Pommern, such as Prussia or Germany. Places in the United States should follow this format: City/Town, County, State, USA. If umlauts are used in place names, they MUST be included. To make searching easier for all users, consistency between place names and formatting is essential.

§3. All names of people must be spelled correctly and as shown in documents. When possible, they should follow the German spelling provided in earlier records (Friederike vs. Fredericka, Carl vs. Charles, Emilie vs. Amalia). When multiple iterations of a surname exist, the predominant one should be used as the surname. All other variations should either be listed in fact notes or in the alias/AKA fields.

§4. Do not share your login or password with anyone. You may only edit your tree. When you wish to collaborate with someone else on the same tree, please send an email to [email protected] and specify which users and tree should have collaborative privileges.

§5. Please only include people which have been substantiated by documented evidence. Rumors and family legends should not be formally included. Please feel free to detail these in fact notes, but do not include these people on the actual tree for searching.

Your cooperation keeps us in compliance with international laws. Unfortunately, we cannot accept data on living people in the EU. Please understand that posting such information without the expressed written consent of the living person will lead to account probation or suspension.

We look forward to helping you share your family history and connecting each other with our Pomeranian ancestries.
