Susan, Leonard had 2 sons, Dietrich (called Dieter) and Nathaneal - Both sons are married and Nathaneal has a daughter, Donna, now 2 years old. Wife's name is Denise. I don't remember her maiden name, off hand. The last place that Leonard lived was Uniontown, Ohio. There's not much point in writing to Joyce, as she probably wouldn't answer you. But, at least Uniontown/Akron gives you a starting point. Leonard was a Church of Christ pastor, and was ordained at New Brighton, MN. Their main office might be able to give you further info. Unfortunately, I don't know where it is located. HTH. Shalom, nancyt On 1/2/2012 5:05 PM, Susan Slade Grossl wrote: > Nancy, > > It is possible.

Bruce, We went thru the Holocaust Memorial in Washington, D.C. It was, as you say, a real eye-opener. I had seen some of the same when I was in Israel. it is unfathomable to me, how people could be so cruel and uncaring!

Nancy, It is possible. My Great Grandfather was Fritz Vogts when he came over. Within a couple of years he was Fred Vogts, then became Frederick Voigts. Don't know why he kept changing it, as he died when my grandfather was very young. It was tons of fun tracking him in the San Francisco City directories a few years back. The name comes from the Gatekeeper in Germany. They were the ones in charge of making sure the gates to the city were closed each night to protect the inhabitants. The fun bits of trivia you pick up while doing this hobby, right? I will place this email in my "unproved, but possible" file under Voigts. Just in case.

Marilyn...you are so right....we must not let history be white-washed....any history. Some people in Texas have tried to rewrite our schools history books, and it is a crime what they are doing. Until we can put a stop to all "rewrites" of all history, and changing other subjects to suit themselves, we are in danger from these people. BB <snip> While I doubt that I will ever travel to Europe, * *I did see a series of films while in college that were too real for comfort. The professor told us we could leave if any were too horrible for us. I did not leave but I have never forgotten the scenes from different films. Not only the various death chambers but also cities where Jewish citizens were walled up and left to starve to death. Even after all this time I sometimes wonder what would have I done if I was just an average German citizen or German soldier. I am glad I grew up in a time when such atrocities were covered in high school and college. My grandchildren probably wish I was not forever recommending books to add to their reading lists. I do not want history white washed. Marilyn ____

Hi Guys, I am having a blast with my Kindle and finding Books. One of the first books I found was the Holocaust book - haven't read it yet but will. I have another question in one of the many emails yesterday concerning Kindle and free books and helpful sites someone mentioned free genealogy books. Anyone have any ideas on how to find them? I haven't Googled yet so guess I should do that. But if anyone just happens to know of some of the genealogy free books I would love to know about where they are. Once again thanks so much to so many of you for guiding me to the great Kindle sites. Yvonne
Marilyn, one time I called the police (Germany) and asked what was the name of their states (as we know our) or what ever they were called and they told me that they didn't have such a division. Not just a nosy old woman but I wanted to know and off to the library I went. Yes, they do have such a division but it was not taught in their school system(However that was many years ago) and they did not cover the war as we did in our history and I am using the past tense on our school system as they do not stress history now and I doubt if my grandchildren (college age) even know the name of the Continents. "Readen, written, and rithmetic are not in fashion now." So much for my history lesson today. Have a great year and continue to make those reading lists. ellen While I doubt that I will ever travel to Europe, * *I did see a series of > films while in college that were too real for comfort.
