Hello everyone. I am a new lister here. I'm hoping what I have is useful to someone, although I do not have much at this time. My great grandfather was Jakob Gaertner, born in Schoenau, Heidelberg, Baden, Germany 12/23/1861. He later came to the US, residing in East Providence, Rhode Island and became a naturalized citizen 12/19/1891. Jakob's parents were Georg Gaertner and Katharina Herion, who were married in Evangelisch, Schoenau, Heidelberg, Baden. Only through word of mouth from my family as the records have been past down was the reference that Katharina's Herion family were descendants of the Huguenots. Unfortunately, I have no more to offer at this time. Perhaps there is another lister who recognizes the Herion name. Don Avery
