Hochscheid Family Tree Data

Here is the research that John did on the Hochscheid family tree.

The download below is a 50MB ZIP (compressed archive). When you decompress it on your computer, you’ll get a folder named “Genaology – Family” which contains:

  • PDF Documents – Interesting historical documents that you can just open and view.
  • My Family Tree Data – Contains files that can be opened with the “My Family Tree” Application, which can be downloaded for free from the Microsoft Windows Store.
  • GEDCOM Family Tree Data — Contains modern versions of the “My Family Tree” data that can be used with online programs like Ancestry.com.

Thanks to Brad Hoeren for figuring out how to open this data and convert it to a modern form.
