My husband descends from the Cronk/Krank family through his grandmother, so he has not been of any help with this project either :>) Initially in my research, I was directed to the Dutch Cronk/Cronkhite, but later found the correct connection to the Kranks of Germany. Good luck in your projects. Sandy Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
