#1 Deutsches Namenlexikon lookups(Dic [Donna Kjendlie <kjendlie@bootheel.] Hi: I have been having a lot of fun doing lookups and we have had several "hits" I will continue to do this as long as you only ask for one surname at a time. The book is a dictionary of names. It gives the meaning of the name and sometimes a location and a time period that it was found in the Germanic area. So far, I have asked you to email, but if list server prefers, we could handle it here. Happy researching, Donna
