The scope of the project is everything connected with genealogy within Switzerland in today's national borders, and emigration from this region. In order to help communication between language groups, and especially worldwide, as much as possible information will be provided in English. Information pertinent to the whole of Switzerland should also be available in German, French and Italian. Regional information (usually about a single Kanton) will usually be presented in the language(s) of the region covered, i.e. in German, French and/or Italian.
Genealogical questions regarding areas neighbouring today's Switzerland, which may have been related with Switzerland during earlier times, will be dealt with where appropriate, preferrabely by linking to existing sites.

The project offers Swiss genealogical societies support with their representation on the internet by
