Ginnie, Thanks for specifically guiding me to the online Germanna second colony. It is vaguely coming back right now about it, but I was too involved in other things at the time I heard about it. I am trying to finish a BIG project for a patron right now. Hopefully, I can get back to Germanna work soon. I missed out on all the goings on re the Germanna second colony organization. The lists of folks look good. Just one surname I see that is missing--Volck. These were two female step-daughters of UTZ. I do not descend from any Wagenbachers, but have a very strong fondness for the Volck ladies who came to Germanna and are the mothers of the Weber and Hoffman children and thousands upon thousands of descendants. If the full truth be known, I doubt if one could scratch a Germanna descendant of either colony, and not find Volck blood flowing. I still don't grasp why these two ladies aren't really bragged about by at least the distaff side of Germanna. Smiling and everyone smile with me. It is good to make some contact again.

Cary - Be sure to check John Blankenbaker's "Germanna Notes" (2500 of them) for a review of your Hoffman and Weaver people.  The following is the page that has the addresses http://homepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~george/address.html Barb ----- Original Message ----- From: "Cary Anderson" <drcary@cox.net> To: "germanna colonies" <germanna_colonies@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, October 28, 2011 8:50:11 AM Subject: Re: [GERMANNA] Hoffman and Weber AND WALK Ginnie, Thanks for specifically guiding me to the online Germanna second colony.  It is vaguely coming back right now about it, but I was too involved in other things at the time I heard about it.  I am trying to finish a BIG project for a patron right now.  Hopefully, I can get back to Germanna work soon.

Thanks, but have been there and done that. One of the problems is the Folg surname that appears as the second wife of Hoffman. A lot of the descendants refuse to consider Volck as the spelling the second wife's family used. Then others think Volck and Walck are the same. They are not. Two distinct names with different meanings. Barb wrote > Cary - Be sure to check John Blankenbaker's "Germanna Notes" (2500 of them) for a review of your Hoffman and Weaver people.
