Hi there! You’ve just found the Meilgaard family history website. In an attempt to generate more common knowledge about the heritage of the Meilgaard name I decided to spend some spare time researching it’s origins.
Fortunately thanks to Stephen Goodfellow and others the work has already started back in 1996:
With the advent of the World Wide Web, documentable knowledge can conceivably be preserved in perpetuity, or at least as long as there is a civilization to support it. We can now make a storable magnetic record of our forefathers, our loved ones, and ourselves. If they wish, our descendants can delve into and build upon an ever-growing “knowledge-coral”. Immortality of a sort has arrived.
