Nebhut Family

Scope of Project

The purpose of this project is to create and maintain the tree for the Nebhut/Nebhuth/Niphut Family. Specifically, at the moment, Hanß Niphut and his descendants. If you are related, or just interested, send the manager a message so he can add you as a collaborator.

This project will also focus on adding better documentation to the Nebhut profiles.

If you manage any Nebhut or related profiles, please use the project options under the more actions menu on their profile to add them to this project.

Project Profiles

The Geni Master Profile

• See http://wiki.geni.com/index.php/Naming_Conventions for notes on historical periods that may be within scope but not covered below.

Names

Make sure the name fields of the Master Profiles include first name, middle name, last name, maiden name if known, otherwise blank, suffix for Sr., Jr., etc. In the display name field only add titles such as Gov. or Dr. preceding.

For example

FN Reuben MN (blank) LN Coffin MN (blank) Display name is Captain Reuben Coffin

----

Places

The United States did not exist until 1789 and the United Kingdom was formed in 1707. Please be careful about using autocomplete. It is better to use the "place" field and type out the place name. Use place names such as England and South Carolina and spell out the country name with historical accuracy.

For example

Colonial America: Charleston, South Carolina

Overview tab

It makes it easier to read a profile if the "about me" information is filled out in this fashion:

• (vitals, summary)
• (parents)
• (marriages)
• (children)
• (weblinks)
• (biography)
• (notes)
• (references)
• (citations)
• example profile: http://www.geni.com/people/Stephen-Hopkins/6000000001495436722

Media tab

- Future releases of the Geni Project module will create a dynamic library of downloadable media for profiles associated with the Project.

-- The media tab of the MP should be used for documentation files. Websites, biographies, census reports, image files -- the richer we make the profile, the more historically and genealogically accurate and meaningful it will be.

Sources tab

-- Adding a source validates the MP, and creates a "timeline" for each life represented by a profile. The more information we add, the more detailed and accurate.

-- Original source data includes: birth certificates, census reports, immigration records, ship rosters, obituaries, marriage licenses ....
