 Dear researchers,
Today it is indeed a very special pleasure for me to thank Franz Spevacek for his many years of contributing to GenTeam. He has so far provided the unimaginable amount of one million records - from more than 500 books. Following his work on the indices of many church registers from the Waldviertel, he continued with his native parish of St. Anton von Padua in the 10th district of Vienna. He then proceeded with the Viennese parish of Lichtental and is now working on the baptismal registers of the Lower Austrian Provincial Maternity Home (NÖ Landesgebäranstalt) in Alservorstadt, Vienna. Starting with the year 1900 (which alone has 9,512 baptisms), Mr. Spevacek has now reached the year 1825, making for a total of 440,000 records.

 About this update

Twelve years ago, GenTeam went online with a total of 1.3 million records. Meanwhile, this number has grown to more than 21 million.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has provided GenTeam with data or has contributed to long-term projects over the past twelve years, and all those who have been working behind the scenes to ensure that GenTeam functions properly and continues to expand.

Major Update
Vienna, November 21, 2023

Dear researcher,

A       www.GenTeam.eu  -  technical update
Since January 2010, more than 22 million records have been uploaded on GenTeam, they have been accessed by well over 100,000 users As a result, a technical update was necessary. While the visual aspects remain largely unchanged, GenTeam is now much faster, and further features will be added.

Unfortunately, it was not possible to transfer the existing registration data. It is therefore necessary for you to register again. We will do our best to reduce waiting times as much as possible.

 B       www.GenTeam.eu – Gazetteer Mapping of all parishes in the Czech Republic
In a very elaborate project, Wolfgang Zehetner has mapped all parishes in today's Czech Republic and annotated them with three different symbols. This allows you to immediately identify the neighboring parishes at different times. Directly linked to all parishes in the gazetteer on GenTeam.
For further information, see https://pfarren-cz.oefr.at/.

The GenTeam gazetteer includes all places in today's Czech Republic, Slovakia (with Ruthenia), Slovenia and Austria (with South Tyrol), with their old and current names, their respective parishes and former parishes, the starting years of the registers, as well as the link to the online registers. THE easiest way to get from the village to the church registers!
