NAVIGATION TIPS: Each of the “thumbnails” below will take you to a graphical display of a book.  Each of the books has a number of pages. Below the displayed pages is a “Control Bar”. Spend some time with the functions available via the Control Bar. If nothing else, you can turn off the sound effects! There are at least THREE ways to turn the pages (you will figure it out)! You may zoom in/out on each of the pages by scrolling your mouse wheel (if you have one) or using the +/- magnifying glasses on the Control Bar. Move the pages around a bit by placing the mouse on a page, click and hold the mouse button while moving the mouse. There is a “Full Screen” mode accessible from the Control Bar. To exit Full Screen mode, press the <ESC>ape key. To jump ahead (or back) on the current page displayed, select the current page number displayed at the center of the Control Bar and change it to the desired new page number. To close the book and return to this web page, you must NOT be in Full Screen mode; then click on the “X” in the upper right corner of the black/screen background.


Prior to the family reunion held in 2018 in Spokane, Washington, we again contracted with Herr Uwe Porten (a professional genealogist based in Germany) to research deeper into our family tree.  He was able to take our lineage back another three generations. He also provided many present-day photos of the towns our ancestors lived in. Click on the link below to see his entire report — all 171 pages!  This report traces our Buller ancestry back to the year 1550.
