Question

I discovered a link to a book called "Genealogy of the VanWinkle Family..."  There isn't a VanWinkle One Name Project and I don't know how to share this source.

A link to a PDF version of this book: https://rucore.libraries.rutgers.edu/rutgers-lib/19419/

Its downloadable and looks like someone deconstructed the hardcopy and ran it through a document scanner.

Description copied from the site: Description300 page genealogical listing of Van Winkle family in America, with name index, compiled by Jersey City historian David Van Winkle. Entries list only birth, death and marriage information, without locations, but narrative sections suggest bulk of entries are in Hudson and Bergen Counties, NJ, and later in Kentucky.

Introductory sections describe history of Dutch settlement in America, and homes and customs in Bergen, the Dutch village that became a part of Jersey City. Narrative of Jacob Wallingen and his life in the village of Winkel, Netherlands and his settlement in New Netherlands where he married Trintje Jacobs. Their descendants make up the subsequent list.

I created a Source page for this book at Space:A Genealogy of the Van Winkle Family, 1630-1913.

Answer 1

Wikitree also has sources by name:

https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Category:Sources_by_Name

I have not personally set up a page like this before but I was using this source earlier tonight:

https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Space:Ayer_Genealogy%2C_The_Descendants_of_John_Ayer_of_Salisbury_1640%2C_Haverhill_1647

So this is another option to explore.

Thanks for the suggestion.  I'll explore deeper but I think this is the way I'm going

Thanks for sharing that, Stephen. I checked our "Source" page for this book, Space:A Genealogy of the Van Winkle Family, 1630-1913, and found that the link you posted was already there.  

"Source" pages like that one are created for the benefit of all of us. They help people identify and locate sources that somebody cited only by title or only with a link to a site lik Ancestry that requires a subscription, and they can help us find the source in our preferred electronic format(s). The citation formats recommended on these pages make it easier to provide good citations, and when we cite a source using the citation format(s) recommended on a Source page, it helps others find the Source page (and the source) for their own use.
