GRANDMA: Genealogical Registry and Database of Mennonite Ancestry
GRanDMA is the Genealogical Registry and Database of Mennonite Ancestry.
GRanDMA contains genealogical information on Mennonite and Hutterite individuals, most of whose ancestral lines can be traced to Mennonite and Hutterite communities in Prussia (now Poland) and South Russia (now Ukraine). It is the product of collecting and merging data from thousands of family histories, church records, obituaries, government records and other contributions.
Records of individuals include dates and places and are linked by relationship to parents and to children. With genealogical software, these linkages lead to ancestry charts and descenants' charts and from there to data mining for all sorts of reports.
The data are made available by paid subscription, viewable either through online software or using standard genealogical software.
The GRanDMA database was first developed, under the leadership of Alan F. Peters, by the GRanDMA Project Committee of the California Mennonite Historical Society (CMHS), starting with Alan's own extensive records.
GRanDMA continues to expand through the addition of new information submitted by both regular users contributing family information and skilled researchers who translate and research original documents. The data are reviewed and entered into the database with the oversight of the GRanDMA Committee.
