I did have barthell, also.these are the ones who married into the Luhmann family of the maternal side of the family. I also have Bartel further down the line. They are on family tree maker. It involves the line in iowa that have Kanning surname and a few others. In that case it involved the name of the farm and the person taking on that name. Also a correction. The name of the city the Meyer family had relatives was called Buffalo center, Michigan. sorry for the mistake.
