They decided not to go back to Germany to recieve it. If one of Yelles's aunts did marry one of those kings, perhaps that is where that million dollars came from. Where did you find the info about Yelles's aunt marrying one of the King Ludwigs? Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
