Hello Manuela Yes they are my direct ancestors. I am so lucky to find the Familienbuch Musberg. I would be so happy for you to find out more. If that would not be too much trouble. The book is in German and I stumble through some of the translation. . . but there is so much I cannot understand. I keep trying.

I have a book about all the mills in that little valley, maybe I could find out more about these family if you want.
