A good source for Swiss compiled genealogy references is Mario von Moos's book [https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog/686934 Bibliography of Swiss genealogies].

This book contains over 9,000 entries of genealogies of Swiss families that have been compiled. | A good source for Swiss compiled genealogy references is Mario von Moos's book [https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog/686934 Bibliography of Swiss genealogies].
