It will never happen but it's Germany. Both my brick walls are there. In my family and my husband's family. No hint really on my hubby's altho I've been given a general area by the name. With mine I have about a half dozen people with the name still there but none can find a connection to us. But then they didn't really try. They're not into genealogy - just checked with places or people as they happened on them. My husband's family came over and settled in the London, Ont area. Mine came pretty much straight to Wisconsin. Lita http://www.picturetrail.com/grammapux Do what you love. Know your own bone; gnaw at it, bury it, unearth it, and gnaw it still. Thoreau

Lita Your houses are beautiful!!! Can you share some information about your brick walls? Maybe some people on this list can be of assistance to you - they sure have been for me! Some of my family supposedly goes back to the area now Germany, although I too am looking for the link across the Atlantic to them. Maybe there are others on the list who are somehow connected to you or that area in Germany or Ontario...
