Julius Billeter produced records covering at least one thousand family names, with each surname covering well over a thousand individuals. Most of his research is available at the Family History Library and can be found using the surname search in the Family History Library Catalog. His work is a good starting point, but does not include sources. Many of the FHC films show completed LDS ordinances. | Julius Billeter produced records covering at least one thousand family names, with each surname covering well over a thousand individuals.

As with all compiled research, these genealogies are '''prone to errors'''. Many of these genealogies do not have further source information, nor explanations to generational connections. It is encouraged to check the information within these genealogies against primary sources (church books, family registers, etc.) to ensure that the research is correct. In particular, pay attention to the connections ''between'' generations; in most cases, numerous persons with the same name lived in the same parish at the same time, and it is easy to connect the wrong person to a family tree. | |||
