John Blankenbaker sent me a map of the area in Germany, in which several of the villages are located, from which some of the Germanna 2 colonists immigrated. I have posted the map and you may view it on the web site. (BEWARE, due to having to keep the size and resolution high in order to have a readable map, the file is large; it will take a couple of minutes to load in your web browser, providing you're using a 56K modem.) If your ancestors come from any of the following villages, you can see them on this map: Bonfeld Bönnigheim Botemheim Gemmingen Groß Sachsenheim Neuenbürg Oberderdingen Ötisheim Schwaigern Sinsheim Stetten am Heuchelberg Sulzfeld Zaberfield I have large, bright red numbers to the map, corresponding with the order of the above villages, so it should be easy to find your particular village. You can access this map by going to John's "Germany-Photos" page at: http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~george/johnsgermnotes/germany-photos.html and clicking on the appropriate link, or, you can go directly to the page at: http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~george/johnsgermnotes/2ndcolonymap.html Note to John: I KNOW I'm probably biting off more than I can chew, but if you want to send maps of other areas of Germany, in which are located the villages of the 1st Colony, and/or the villages that you are sending photos for, LET ME HAVE THEM! (Ye Gads! I'm three villages behind right now for the Photos!) SgtGeorge
