Posted on: BaltimoreCity County Md. Query Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Md/BaltimoreCity/3136 Surname: WOERNLEIN, WORLEIN, SCHELLENBERG ------------------------- Nancy, Thank you for the response to my query on the BaltimoreCity County Md. Query Forum of rootsweb.com. Please confirm that you are descended from the same Johann Woernlein/Worlein. How are you related to his descendants? Johann WOERNLEIN was my mother's paternal great-grandfather. My research is currently stumped going backwards to Bavaria, where I believe he originated. I'm having trouble confirming that the person of that name who arrived in Baltimore, MD, USA was the same person who married Josephina SCHELLENBERG. I guess it's going to cause me to go to Bavaria some day to check it out. Do you have anything further on his ancestors in Germany? Thanks in advance, Ron Peeples
