Hi, With reference to the Christian Haug family I asked about. I talked with my great uncle Melvin Haug (who will be 90 soon) and asked some questions. In his comments he made a statement that he always heard that there were members of the family that were distressed that the name had be changed upon arriving in the USA (mid 1850s) he believes that it was originally HOUCK (which appears on one census). Please keep that in mind if you are keeping in mind my questions. Thanks Gwendy Baldwin
