Hi Karen & List, I always wondering where the early Rohrssen's were buried. I never knew about Hoosier Grove until last week. I was quite surprised when I looked over your family group sheet you sent me. I knew very little about the Rohrssen's and Hechts. I recently started my research and found a several items I think you will find interesting. I'll fill in as much of the family sheet you sent me and send it to the list.
