Hi all, I am trying to help my relative in Germany on a surname of his. In German it is Lerchenstein-in the USA it is translated to Larskstone or Larchstone. I did find 2 Lerchenstein in the census & sent him the images. Now I find 1 Larkstone listed in Ancestry.com birth marriage & death records. This seems strange since neither Larkstone nor Larchstone are listed in the census indexes from 1860 on up to 1920. Nor is it listed in any message board as a surname nor in ROOTSWEB SURNAME LIST/RSL nor in SSDI. I found 1 LERCHENSTEIN in SSDI and sent him the info. I am wondering if someone would consider looking up the info contained within & send to me? Thank you much, Kathy
