    3. Hello to Brian and Etienne, Thank you, Gentlemen, so very much. I have now put the information that you translated/transcribed together like this. Knowing what I know from my other research of this family and what other researchers have shared with me, his mother's maiden name was definitely Schott, but as we know with a's & o's and other hand written letters of an alphabet we can't always be certain at times. You are heaven's gifts sent to me and my family reseachers, so I think you from the bottom of my heart. However, waiting in the sidelines are some more records. Again, I know some of the names from my research, but much is lost in translation as indicated. Now off to get that record uploaded to my family website, and my continued plead for help. Kudos to all of you who have and continue to help me with these records. Your kindnesses are greatly appreciated.
