Posted on: Posey County In. Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/In/Posey/1254 Surname: Hertel, Schmitt, Koch ------------------------- Hi Gilgert! Yes, all of those names are in my family tree. I tink I sent you a GEDCOM compiling of my Family Tree Maker, Family Tree where I named it KOCH.FTW. Mary Catherine (Hertel) Schmitt (married URBAN Schmitt) and Martha (Hertel) Schmitt (maried to Urban's Brother) In their family Father=George Hertel -- Mother=Theckla (Metzger)Hertel. Brothers = Clarence and Charles. One sister died at birth. Their Paternal Great Grandfather was also a George Hertel who married Mary Elizabeth (Weiss). This is also my Paternal Greatgrandfather. Martin Koch is my Maternal Great Grandfather. All the names you questioned about are in my Family Tree Compiling. If you can't find what I sent to you, let me know and I'll recopy it for you. I think you were unable to handle My Family Tree Maker File (KOCH.FTW) and I had to compile it as a Gedcom File for you. Let me know if this is right or if you need anything else I have. I also just came up with a CD that was made from a St Wendel Photo Book that was published by the parish. There are quite a few Schmitt Photos on it. If you want a copy, let me know.
