Early Swiss Genealogical Resources

Despite some inaccuracies and incomplete documentation, the genealogies collected by Julius Billeter (1869-1957) include more that 1200 families and are among the best sources of genealogical information on families of Swiss descent.

According to the Billeter collection, the Streiff family has origins in Diesbach GL, Linthal GL and Schwanden GL, Switzerland.

Online Billeter collection resources can be found in German or English for more details about Streiff and other surnames of Swiss origin.
