Schleswig-Holstein Compiled Genealogies

Ortsfamilienbuch, Ortssippenbuch, Dorfsippenbuch
An Ortsfamilienbuch (aka Ortssippenbuch or Dorfsippenbuch) contains the entire membership of a village from the earliest history to the present day. It is build on church records, court records, tax records, land records and any other record which serves to establish a complete picture of who has lived in a village at any given time. Every member of the community is accounted for by a number and linked to each other when appropriate. The text to showcase a member of the community can be abbreviated, even explained in symbols. The author of the Ortsfamilienbuch usually provides explanations of abbreviations and symbols he used at the beginning of his text. Some, however, may assume that such are common knowledge among genealogists.

Here are firstly sample pages of what an Ortsfamilienbuch can look like
