Hi, Peggy, I am also researching the GAREISS surname. Johann GAREISS was born in 1833 in Grafengehaig, Kr. Kulmbach. He is the son of Johann Adam GAREISS and Margarethe FLESSA. They are Lutheran. Johann immigrated to Chicago in 1853. Grafengehaig is about 8 km straight [longer by road] northeast of Stadtsteinach. This is certainly close enough to be related. Do you have any more information? Was your family Catholic or Lutheran? Karen Grossart

I am researching the following families in Bavaria: Andrew (b. abt 1800) and Tracy BOTZMAN (or BOTZUM) with children Gertrude (b. 1835) and Adam. Gertrude married Adam L. WILL (or WHEIL/WEILL/WEIL) (b.1822). Anna Margaret WIHL (b. 1814) who married Christophorus HILLENBRAND. If anyone else is researching these families, please e-mail me at "mnk@uslink.net." Karen Harvey (nee SCHELLER)

Hi, I am new to the list and am looking for a JOHANN HERGONRATHER (which was changed to HERGENROEDER in the U.S.), and BARBARA BRANDEL, who were married around 1860 in Bavaria. By 1867 they were in Pittsburgh PA, USA, the only child I know of was HENRY born Oct 19 1867 in Etna (just across the river from Pittsburgh). If anyone knows of these people or where in Bavaria either of the surnames is "traditionally" from, please e-mail me. Thanks, mspnkrawkr@aol.com

Ruth, you are correct, it could also be HOUSNER. Some documents handwritten, it looks like HOUSNER.

Hi Everyone! My gggrandmother was Anna Marie FRUHSCGEISS, from Ruhmbach, Bavaria. I am looking for any information on her and her family. I have a document written in old german script. This document has a seal,SIGILLUM PANOCHIAE CATHOLICAN,HOFDORF. Someone translated it for me and told me her name on it was Anna Maria MUHLBAUER, b. 1834, in Ruhmbach, Landshut. Her mother was Anna MEINDL? Passenger list to Baltimore list: Matthaus FRUHSCHEISS Maria A. FRUSCHEISS Anna M. FRUSCHEISS John FRUSCHEISS It is possible that Anna Maria was illigimate; her mother was Maria A. Meindl, Maria married Matthaus, and he adopted Anna Maria? How can I find information on this? Thanks in advance. Barbara May Baltimore, MD,US

Hi All! I am lookin for information on John HAUSNER from Lamhesdorf, Bavaria. Any information to direct me on how to search for his family would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Barbara May Baltimore, MD, US

I really would like to find someone in the area of Nurnberg who could do some research for me on my family Coat of Arms (Wappen). Could someone give me some names or a name to correspond with regarding this? Shirley Baxter at baxters1@prodigy.net. Thanks.

HI. I am researching the BLANK family, who reported came to USA from Bavaria in the 1850s, and HESS family, who reported came from Baden in 1850s. Appears to be a connection of the families in Germany, so would expect families from around Baden/Bavaria border. Names include Thomas, Barbara (Hess), Nicholas, Mary (married Hess), Magdalena. IS anyone researching these names? thanks, Tim Boyle

Am researching ELISABETH GAREISS, who married my GGrandfather, MELCHIOR PARTHEIMULLER in STADTSTEINACH, BAVARIA, 1854. Elisabeth was born in Stadtsteinach in 1824, of parents Johann GAREISS and Margareth FRIEDRICH. She died in 1859. Any further information would be appreciated.

I have contacted the Bamberg Church Archive several times and they repeat every time that there are too many WITTMANN'S in the Weidlwang area to do any research. Is there a phone listing for WITTMANN'S in the Weidlwang area. Are there any WITTMANN'S on the internet in this area?

Just found a death record for a cousin of one of my Bavarian ancestors. He died in Munich, and the cause of death was "gewundet bei Wortch/fruhkrankheit" and continued: wurde bei Worth am 6t. August 1870 von eine kugel ?getauften?" (baptised by a bullet...???) Okay, I get the part that he was shot, but am missing something in the translation! Can anyone help? Also need to know what the occupation "leerhausler" means. It is not in the list of occupations that I have. Since leer means empty, is this saying that the person was idle, or without occupation?

There is a lot of information online that I remember reading regarding the Germans to America series. I think this may have been on Rootsweb. All 60 current volumes are listed and the dates of each, as well as what cities/libraries have which volumes. The earlier volumes contain only ships that were 80% German and later they included all who had at least 50% German. I have found only one family out of three. There are supposed to be more volumes coming, but I don't know if they will be continuing later years, or if any will contain additions to previous years.

I am printing a family history book on my ancestor who immigrated from Bavaria. In researching this history I have been told that some of his family members came to America looking for him. My question - what information would be needed to determine if, indeed, some of his family did try to find him. I assume you would need a name and approximate date that the family came to New Orleans? Anything else, or is it possible to do this type of search? Thanks for your help. Nita Hebert
