Greetings, Just today I was contacted by a Derendinger descendent and he said his ancestors came from Ingolsheim. Can someone tell me if this village is close to Ichenheim? Thanks again. Maurine

Maurine, This instance is a perfect use of the web site Beverly gave us, < http://tomcat-dmaweb1.jrc.it/fuzzyg/query/ >. Without any adjustment or qualification into country or features, it leads us directly to the Alsace. Then checking it against, < http://www.heavens-above.com/countries.asp > you can get its nearest neighbours but you really don't need them in this case. The only advantage is by using both of these sites, you end up with the two different identifications of Latitude and Longitude for Ingolsheim.....in case you ever want to plot the town on a map. djweber [email protected] ------------------------- ----- Original Message ----- From: "Maurine LeBlanc" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, November 02, 2005 3:22 PM Subject: [Ortenau] Location of village > Greetings, > > Just today I was contacted by a Derendinger descendent and he said his > ancestors came from Ingolsheim.
