Dear subscribers to this list, I am sorry for causing confusion. I want to affirm that I am writing an acadamic research and that I am not working for a travel agency or somthing like this. I definitely will not send you any unwanted emails. When I will finish the survey, I will post the results on this list. Please ask me if you have got any further questions or recommendations. I am also researching family members who immigrated to the US: Wilde (of Luedinghausen in Westphalia); Reicks (of Darup in Westphalia), Buthmann (of Olfen in Westphalia); Hattrup (of Nordkirchen in Westphalia), Tillmann (of Bork in Westphalia) I would like if I can help somebody who has ancestors coming from the South-Münsterland (Area around Luedinghausen) as I have done quite a lot of research there. Sorry again if caused any confusion and for my poor English. Stefan Wiemann
