People said I would have too much--I laughed, but today--I do, and it is hard to put it all together. You have some exciting research to do. When I first started Kreis Pyritz in Pommern, I was very fortunate. I found a great Mentor, now deceased, but his work is being continued by his daughter and others. I would not tell them this, but it is not quite the same--his genuine interest and brilliance was wonderful. His name was Myran Gruenwald of Wisconsin. He started The Die Pommerschen Leute (newsletter) for descendants of the Baltic Duchy of Pommern. The Newsletters and his information were absolutely priceless and I have much of his work, and my greedy side wishes for more. I urge you, if you have roots in this area, including Posen (as I sighted) join this group and subscribe to the Newsletter named above.
