Yes indeed, I would love a photo of Katherine and Joseph Josten. Please send it at a resolution of over 200 dpi if you can. I would also like to exchange gedcoms of your COSSMANN>HALFMAN>JOSTEN line. I have photos of COSSMANN/HALFMAN/JOSTEN headstones from the Elgin, NE cemetery if you may interested in any of them. I am in the process of recording all Luxembourger AREN(D,S,T,Z), or variations thereof, that I can find in the LDS films. I record them into Familytreemaker along with their baptism sponsors and village and wedding witnesses and village and then try to connect them to my ARENS. By studying the village of residence and baptism and marriage records, I?ve become very nearly convinced that all these Luxembourger AREN*** variation people are indeed related. I currently have over 2000 of them that are not yet connected. Your Susanna Arens was not yet in my file. I see that Lannen, Luxembourg and Grendel, Belgium are less than 3 miles apart. Could you also send me a gedcom of those that you have connected to Susanna ARENS so that I may add them to my Familytreemaker file? Does your March 28, 1791 marriage record for Susanna Arendt to Nicolaus Groat list the parents of Susanna?
