Behne Family Genealogy Project

This is a dynamic genealogy database which allows users to easily share your information and photos of Behne and related families. If you're related and you have genealogical information that's not in these pages, then you're holding out on the rest of us! Don't be a holdout: there's hundreds of people that actually want that little snippet of information you have right now! Don't just take information away with you, leave something here! Contact me at for full (and free) access to my GeneWeb now! NOTE: The above is a new email address, use it instead of the behne.us address. (Just browsing? You don't need a password, just go!)

NOTE: Once you enter my GeneWeb via any of the links on this page, you'll note a Sosa number has been assigned to my direct ancestors, with myself as Sosa 1. You can change any person (such as yourself) to Sosa 1 by going to their page, clicking on ``Ancestors'', then click on ``Navigation with [Person's Name] as Sosa reference.'' This is a handy navigation tool.

Willkommen!
If you haven't been in my GeneWeb database in a while now, feel free to wander in and look around. If you have new information that isn't in the database, or you want to make a correction, just email to me with a password that you'd like to use to log in to the server. I'll then add you to the list so you can edit the database. This will also enable you to see notes, and personal info of living persons born less than 85 years ago, which is not normally viewable.
Take note: If you have information or links you'd like to see displayed here, please email me right away.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen,
Russ

My Gedcom file is no longer uploaded to the WorldConnect Project because I will not allow anyone to sell the data. Here's the link to the article that convinced me to stop uploading my database to WorldConnect:

GeneWeb Genealogy Software Users Group

This is a user's group that I own for advocates of Daniel de Rauglaudre's GeneWeb genealogy server software.

GeneWeb is a genealogy software with a Web interface. It can be used off-line or as a Web service. It uses very efficient techniques of relationship and consanguinity computing, developed in collaboration with Didier Rémy, research Director at INRIA.

GeneWeb, is free software distributed under the GNU license, and is available for Unix, Windows and Mac (OS X).

If you don't yet have GeneWeb go to the GeneWeb Homepage and download a free copy now!

Surname Pages

These are a few of the many (890+) family surnames in my database, and are the ones I am most interested in. Surnames in bold and italics are of particular interest to me.
