6/04-- The David & Elizabeth Egbert
family outline, James
Delancy Egbert
family outline, and the Phillip Egbert family outline, are now combined
with
Lawrence Egbert Family of KY outline. So there are no outlines
numbered 19, 29, or 32 at this time. If you find a name in the index
referenced as one of those, it is now in 31. Hopefully it's all
been
corrected.
1/05-- Due to a computer crash, 3
hurricanes coming through our area, and the
stormpages webhost reverting the site to it's earliest form and not
responding to any fixing, the Emtyville website has changed a bit
(though it's taken awhile to recover). Emtyville had to be moved to
topcities.com without inserting any notification at the old site.
The
outlines have been edited, information and
graphics have been added. At the moment, the index has been updated
with those new
family members with the Egbert surname. The spouses and children (of
these new Egberts) with other surnames have yet to be added to those
surnames' index.
The
Francis & Melvina Egbert Family outline (20) is now incorporated
into the James and Sarah Egbert Family outline (8)... and the
Fredrick Wilhelm Egbert Family (now 20), the Daniel & Louisa
(Appel) Egbert Family (now 19) and the Nicholas Egbert Family of
Kentucky (now 32) have been taken out of Miscellaneous Egberts (34)
...just to warn you in case I missed changing a number somewhere.
2/05-- Site updates need to be done
once a month with this new location
it seems. The pages that have changed will be posted here,
without listing each individual change. In the process of adding
the new information this month I did find some outline numbers that
were wrong (as mentioned last month) and fixed them, there may be
more. Some Social Security Death Index information was added.
There were some very interesting emails in
the last month, and the information from those people has also been
added...I think I still have two or three more
things to do with those.
The pages which have been updated
in the last month are:
Name Index E (spouses, and those with
other surnames, still need
some indexing)

2/05 Well there were problems with
the new topcities site too, the bandwidth is so small it's shut down
when I work on the pages. So there won't be much happening there
now...on the move again. Hopefully the new home at Rootsweb will
be a lasting one.
2/05 Added a Glossary of Words and Terms, cleaned up some of the pages
with missing or faulty links, and added some names to Miscellaneous
Egberts from veterans records from MO and other records. There is
a Matthew Brady photo of T. F. Egbert
dated between 1860-1865. He is now listed in Misc. Egberts but I
did not add the photo. There is no other information about it and
I can't locate a T.F. Egbert in anything I have yet. To see the photo
go to http://arcweb.archives.gov and in the search fields keyword
Egbert, archival materials dated between 1860-1865, location of
Archival Materials as Still Picture Records LICON, Special Media
Archives Services Division. If you have any further information about
him I'd sure like to know more.
11/06 It's been awhile since updating the site. Lots of reasons, only a
small part being procrastination. Many
pages which now have been updated
and (hopefully) the link to Joseph Morgan Egbert's page has been
fixed. I would list all the updated pages but it might be easier
to
list the ones that weren't. Sections A, B, C, and F remain
unchanged, and most of Section G is the same...except for this
page of course. The Index has been updated, though some of the
listing for spouses were missed, and hopefully that oversight will be
fixed soon (as
soon as I figure out which ones *sigh* were missed when I was
interrupted and the information put away before it was completed) .
12/06 Decided it was time to do a print-out of the outlines, story
pages, and index. There hasn't been a printing of this information
since 1998. It was a shock to me how much it has grown in 8 years. From
a book which had about 200 pages it is now over 2000! The index pages
themselves (which were not in the 1998 book) were over 500 pages. I'm
sure the number of pages could be reduced, with small print, wider
margins, fewer spaces between entries, etc. There were some
places where it didn't print out as it looks on site, like hidden page
breaks, that I will try to correct. So don't be looking for a
book to be published that you can order or buy, and please be aware
that some of these pages can take a lot of paper and ink if you decide
to print them out.
12/06 Came across some sites about Egbertville, Staten Is., NY, and
Egbert Square. Look for them in the Sites of Interest List. Still don't
have the father of George Egbert, (Arthur Stanley Egbert's father,) or
his grandparents, but now have his
great-grandfather's name and can link him to the Govert Egbert family.
If anyone has more about his immediate family I'd sure like to know.
Look for what I have about them in the Govert Egbert Family, and in
Miscellaneous Egbert names.
12/31/06 Last note of the year for sure! Found a good site for
individuals and cemetery listings, Find a Grave. The site is now listed
in the Links of Interest page. I found many new Egbert people to
add to the Miscellaneous Egberts page, and added details to what was
already known about many more. There were Egberts in over 20
states, though some states only had one or two listed. I've
updated the outlines again to include what was found.
2/16/07 New Section on King Egbert!! The work on King Egbert's life
continues, but the story of his life and times is now viewable.
There are some glitches on the pages and some typos, et cetera, to
work out, and I'd sure be grateful for any comments or
suggestions. There has been several people contact me with further
information about their part of the Egbert family, haven't had time to
get to that while working on the King, but it won't be forgotten.
7/1/07 Received a number of emails in the last 6 months adding
more information to the family history. Those outlines affected
are the George & John Egbert family, Govert Egbert family, Isaac
Egbert family, Howe family and Hovis family. Hopefully I made all the
right corrections and additions to the various index pages also.
I haven't really delved into Egbert research of late, but with
the help of all of the contributors the history is still growing by
leaps and bounds. Any and all help is appreciated.
