Dear List members: Would one of our overseas members give a quick list of major holidays in Germany on the 2000 calendar. I would also like to learn a little background about each one - just a sentence or two. Vielen Dank.

Good Morning List I am still looking for my Wachtler relatives. Their last known address was Ehingen. Now I know that there are many Ehingen's, and am trying to narrow it down as which one they came from. George Wachtler was a farmer. He was born abt 1805 and emigrated to US in 1844. Is there one particular Ehingen that was farm land more than the others? They left from the port at Bremen. Would there be archives for emigration papers at Bremen or is there a centralized office for that? Where would I write to obtain these papers? I appreciate all the help you can offer and thank you for your time and effort. Dawn
