My name is Jessica, I am the great grand daughter of Benjamin Meder and Federica Atencio. She is known to us as Frieda. My great grandparents had 7 kids. 4 are still alive. I just started researching the Meder side not too long ago and was excited to find this. I have been having a hard time tracking any information down. If anyone could help with this I would appreciate it. Thank You! Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
