A few individual pages:
These pages have been gernerated automatically by a genealogy databank.
The data were initially compiled from various sources, but today the main contributor is Dr. Jean-Paul Dardel of Hendaye. If you have not yet purchased the book he has published, you should get it: it contains innumerable details and documents on our family. (see page "Famille Dardel").
The software used for the database is now in French (Decemberr 2011), and I filled the database in French.
Let me know what you think of this simplified genealogy database.
More importantly even, send me comments regarding possible mistakes, or additions. The complete database is available in GED format (a specific genealogy database format, requiring genealogy software) for those interested. It contains a few more details, notes for several of the listed persons, and includes presently 4600 entries vs 1300 at the time of our first family reunion in 1995. It goes back to Jehan Dardel, in the 15th Century.
A little far-fetched, albeit true: the "Swedish branch" of the family descends from King Christian III of Danmark, who was an ancestor of Sophie Lewenhaupt. Here the corresponding chart in PDF format.
Convention for given names
By default, the first given name is assumed to be the usual one. The order of the given names is in principle the order under which the child was registered at birth. In cases where the usual name is not the first one, it is indicated with an asterisk (e.g.: Marc Amiod*).
Tips for searching the database:
There are two ways to display the data:
1. Family card
Clicking on one of these given names will bring a family card (title: "Généalogie Dardel") with details of that person and his or her spouse, including their parents and children. From there, you can navigate the entire database.
Caution : I have selected the French version of this Table of Contents as the "Pivot" for the web database. Therefore, whenever you click the "Sommaire" (Contents) link, you will be brought back to the page in French. Sorry, I can't help it because the entire set of pages, except the present one, was created by my software, and I had to make a choice for the contents. I thought it was more logical to use the French one. Besides, all the data in the base, including notes, are in French.
2. Person card
In the family card, when you click a name in bold (one of the spouses in general or an unmarried person), you bring up a "FIche individuelle" (person sheet). The difference is mainly the presence of a reference number (ID), additional notes or links to other pages — but only some persons have those —, and the display of all spouses when more than one exist. The children are shown with their birth and death dates in the person cards.
The "Home Card" is that of Jehan Dardel the miller, who is the starting point of the present genealogy.
The ID numbering is arbitrary and has no genealogy significance. Every person has a reference number. However, I have established (Jan 2012) a list of correspondence between the IDs of this site and the reference numbers shown in Jean-Paul Dardel's family book.
Specifically, we would like to have:
