This is the new and improved Etherton Family Genealogy Home Page. Way back in 1995 I started this page and used the tools available at the time, essentially I hand coded HTML pages. I recognized the ability of links on HTML pages would facilitate looking at genealogy information. The added benefit was that it was available to anyone with an internet connection. In 2011, after creating over 1200 individual pages of information, it was time to make an upgrade to use a database for the information and CSS and PHP to dynamically format and modify the output based on the information in the database. This will also allow me to present information that I would have been very difficult previously. Such as family events that have happened today! I will also be able to change the design much more easily in the new format.
I am still converting the data from the old format to the new, so please bear with me as I continue to fill in the information from the previous version.
In short, 2440 of our relatives!
