I'm trying o find a connection to my branch of Kirchners, but so far neither Fred works. MY Dad, Grandfather and great grandfather were all William H. Kirchners originally in the Templeton, Otter River area. The only other Kirchner in our line was Henry, my grandfathers brother ,who never got married as far as I can tell. I believe my great grandfather came to U.S straight from Weimar saxony Germany. I have tried to seek a connection with Mathias Kirchner also , but found nothing there so far. I guess I need to head to Germany. I hope to attend the Kirchner family reunion this summer in Mass.Rene Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
