In the past I have seen many questions asking about the history of the Pfalz and of Bavaria. While searching I found the site http://www.hefersweiler-berzweiler.de/html/english/english.html which tells some of the history and living conditions which resulted in our German ancestors emigrating to America and other areas. The site also lists some of the popular names in the Village. John

That was a good find, John. We, and especially the descendants from the Rheinpfalz, thank you for that.

John, Thank you for giving the list the URL on the History of Bavaria. My ancestors came from around Kaiserlautern and I now have more respect for what those people went through.
