Dear List Members, I am searching for a WAGNER family, who are said to have come from Hirschfeld, Bavaria. My great grandfather, JOHANN (JOHN) WAGNER, came to the U.S. about 1874. He settled in Perkins Twp., Erie County, Ohio. There were WAGNER relatives who lived in Detroit, Michigan (or approximate area) also. JOHANN (JOHN) WAGNER'S date of birth is about 17 June 1847. I know nothing about his parents or siblings. There appears to be 2 towns named Hirschfeld in Bavaria. One is in the Landkreis of Schweinfurt (Unterfranken). The other is in the Landkreis of Kronach (Oberfranken). I would like to write to the churches or civil offices to see if they have any record of JOHANN WAGNER'S birth or any family records concerning him. If anyone knows anything about the WAGNER family and/or could provide me with addresses to where I could write, I would certainly appreciate any assistance. Thank you! Marcia
