Nancy, I have a Stephan Family in Bensheim.My G/grandfather had a brother- Johan Jacob Stephan b1815 in Lampertheim D1890 in Bensheim - Hesse-Darmstadt. I know very little about him though. Most of this family Immigrated to the U.S. There were siblings also - Philippina b1817, Hartman b1831, Daniel b1834 that I have not been able to find anything on. If anyone knows about these four individuals born in Lamperthiem, please let me know.

I've been working with Catholic baptismal records from Bensheim (1823 - 1869) and have found several families living in the United States. But, it seems, no one else is working on them. I would love to find descendants so I can share the information with them.

I will review the records and see if any of them are listed.
