Welcome to DISBYT database where you may search for relatives and find research
friends!
22,2
million records before 1909
The database is made up of information submitted by members of DIS - Computer Genealogy Society of Sweden.
The DISBYT database contains
22,2 million records of Swedes who
lived before 1909.
Each record can represent one or more individuals and
consists of info about name, parish and year for events such as birth,
marriage and death. It also includes the name of the submitter.
DISBYT-news
Due to extensive use of the Disbyt database, we have decided to limit the number of accesses
to the database to 1000 accesses each day for each user. This limitation is made for safety reasons and
for fair use reasons.
Source Quality Stars
As good news for the summer research, we have improved the DISBYT database. Quality in
research is important. We therefor now will show how good the basis for the information is.
You will see star after the each note, which will mean the following:
|
| | - | Only year exists |
| * | Date exists |
| ** | Source reference exists |
| *** | Source reference with volume number exists |
| **** | Source reference with volume and page number exists |
If there is no stars, the reason could be that the data was submitted a long time ago. We have
also had som problems with missing info. If you resubmit your data, it will be correct the next
time.
Benefits for those of you who have submitted more data
If you have submitted info of at least 200 persons the last year, you will get a browsing function
where you can browse between the same person submitted by different researchers. This function
works if there is birth records.
If you have submitted info at least 1000 persons the last two years, you will be able to see
a ancestor chart in four generations.
