Future Efforts

In the coming months, there will be additional ways to help us connect around this great mission - to preserve our heritage, history, and the stories that make it meaningful.

We are hoping a community will spring up on the social web to participate and discuss the research that is going on regarding Nicholas and his family.

We hope to begin an effort to connect cousins and help them trace their roots back to Nicholas Stoltzfus.

We want to encourage people to develop Wikipedia articles for some of the research done here. As well, it would be great to share some of your Stoltzfus related photos on Flickr.
