Site Map

A Few Hints:  Use the Site map to go from web page to web page.  Use "Find" ("control" key  plus "F" key) to get a window in which you can type a word or number that you want your computer to find for you on a web page.  Highlight a part of a web page and use the "selection" option in print window (select "File" at the top left of the screen and then select "Print") to print the highlighted part of the web page.

Most of the pages on this web site contain historical information about the development of the families of the people of the United States of America.   No one person can claim credit for all of the research which has been required to collect the data which I have analyzed and am disseminating on this web site.  Other than my personal research, inherited information which my parents researched, and sometimes information from the books of the Sigler Family Organization edited by Robert Howard Sigler and Gregory L. Watson, I have given credit for my sources.  If an author does not give credit to his or her sources then the author not only takes credit for the source's correct information but also for the source's mistakes.  That would be unfair to both the source and the author.  This is our history and is meant to be read and disseminated by anyone who desires to do so.  However, if material from this web site is copied, printed, and/or published on other web sites, in books, or in research papers it would be very much appreciated if I and this web site were given credit as being the most immediate source for the material. A link to this web site would also be appreciated.

This Web site is no longer being updated.  To go to the Site Map for the updated new Sigler Web Site site map click on the link below.

New Sigler Web Site site map.

This page is organized according to family groups and will contain several thousand names when completed.  If you are looking for a specific name, the fastest way to locate it is to use the "find" feature incorporated into most browsers.  To use this feature, hold down the control (Ctrl) key and the letter "F" key on your keyboard at the same time.  A window will appear on your screen.  It will have a space to type in a name and options which you can choose.  Click on "Find Next" to start your search.  You can search for one word by itself or for a series of words grouped together.  The word(s) do not have to be names of people.

It is my intent not to list the names of living people unless they request that I do so.  If you are a descendant of someone buried in Old Bethel Cemetery and  you want your name included on this page, email me with your request.

I have various types of dates and locations for different people listed below.  However, due to the massive nature of this project for two different cemeteries (Old Bethel and Old Chalybeate Springs) about ten or twenty miles apart in the original Union County, Kentucky, I am not listing that information on this web page at this time.  If you would like specific information for specific people listed below, email me.
