The data, open

Everything on this site also exists in formats a machine can read without parsing HTML. It is in the public domain: it can be copied, cited and reused without asking permission.

JSON

familia.json

All the content in one file: 54 people, 15 places, 13 sources, 28 events, the name variants and the open questions. Field names and texts are in Spanish; the header explains how the evidence status of each item is marked.

JSON · bilingual

conocimiento.json

The same knowledge as an entity graph —people, places, 5 surname variants, events and sources—, each with its evidence status, alternate names, relations and URLs in Spanish and English. It is what the site's question tool uses.

GEDCOM 5.5.1

smud.ged

The tree in the format opened by FamilySearch, Gramps, Ancestry, MyHeritage and any other genealogy program. It includes alternate names, dates, places, occupations and a note per person with the evidence status.

Markdown

en/llms-full.txt

The whole English site in a single text file: the nine chapters, every entry and every table.

Markdown

en/llms.txt

The site index in the form proposed by llmstxt.org: what this is, and an annotated list of links to the Markdown version of each page. The Spanish one is at /llms.txt.

Every page, also in Markdown

Any page of this site can be requested in Markdown by adding .md to the address. Felix Smud's entry is at /en/people/felix-smud/ and its plain-text version at /en/people/felix-smud.md.

Every HTML page also declares it in its head, with <link rel="alternate" type="text/markdown">, so an agent does not need to guess the convention.

How to read the status of each item

This is the one convention you need to know to use the data without misreading it. Every person and every source has a field status:

documented
A census, a synagogue register, a gravestone or an immigration record supports it.
traditional · unverified
It comes from family trees published online or from collaborative trees with no sources attached. Nobody has documented it yet.
family
It comes from family memory, typed in October 1996.
pending
A located document, with a known archival reference, not yet consulted.

Surname variants have their own status: “documented” if the form is written in a dated document of this research, “registered” if it exists but no document of this research shows it.

Dates use GEDCOM format —ABT 1838, 25 JAN 1899, BET 1860 AND 1868— and, when the exact day is known, ISO 8601 as well.
