This pedigree is unlike normal genealogical tree. It consists of
a number of sheets with basic information about the persons. All
sheets have links so one can click around and see who is related to
whom. As such it might be called a family book. The method is my
own. The genealogical tree consists of more than 70 sheets, and is
constantly expanding, mainly backwards in time, so welcome back in
a couple of months.
The focus is on the peculiar family name Thau that has nothing
to do with a Jewish family in the Americas or Silesian German
family, but is proper North Slesvigan. However, the data that
scrupulous genealogists provide me with are also guiding me through
the data jungle. Many of these genealogists turn out to be my own, distant relatives, whose existence came to a surprise to me.
Unless otherwise indicated, the language in use is Danish. After
all, the major bulk of the indexed persons consists of Danes, and
immigrants are either uncooperative (when recent) or badly
documented (when remote).
