Switzerland Listers: I just joined the list. My name is Jerry Byers from Nova Scotia, Canada. I am nearing completion on a book on my maternal family FIELDING. The ancient roots of FIELDING trace back through early England (to 1280, Geoffrey de Feilding) with its roots in Switzerland through a branch of the House of Hapburgh in Rheinfielden, Switzerland (from whence the name Fielden/Fieldinging originated), Hapsburg Castle, etc., and Aargau canton, Laufenburg, etc., and thence back further to our ancestry in France. I realize that most of you as subscribers are probably researching your Swiss surnames/connections of more recent times. The time period I am searching in Switzerland is prior to surnames as we know them (1100-1300. However, I ask you as researchers with Swiss ancestry for suggestions or a more specific Swiss URL(s), homepages, or other websites on the internet where I might search for more of my Hapsburg ancestry in Switzerland. Maybe there are websites specific to medieval research in these early time periods and of which I am unaware. My intermarried families of inerest are von NEUCHATEL, OCHENSTEIN, PFULLENDORF, von SCHWABEN, REGENSBURG yjr ;tter of which are more of Germanic ancestry. Any comments would be welcome.
