Here are some of the tasks that I think need to be done. Which ever surname you are related to, please dig in. I'll be working on Peter Hitt descendants mostly, and could use your help. When creating or updating profiles please provide sources relevant to your changes, and when possible provide a link to the original documentation. When choosing to link either FamilySearch or Ancestry, I would suggest FamilySearch. The links to family search rarely get broken, and I have noticed that most Ancestry links are broken when I view a profile.
