Norm, I sent off for some more of the Gullung children's marriage certificates. No maiden name listed for the Mother Catherina. One had no maiden name and the other had Catherina Gullung. The only one so far was Mary M. Gullung who married Emile Mansuy. It had Catherina Scharber list for the Mother. So I am still looking for the correct speling of Jacob Gullung and Catherine S______ who were married at St. Paul's church. Just wanted to let you know how it is going on that last name for Catherina S____.
