Thank you. After a few more tries, it opened for me I'm guessing there was much action when the message came online. Yes, Hostetter's are there. At this point, I don't connect, but every Hostetter in North America traces back to a Swiss Mennonite who came to Pennsylvania to follow his religious beliefs. His name was Jacob. Obviously, there are thousanda of descendants. Thank you. -----Original Message----- From: miwayne-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:miwayne-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of joyce stevens Sent: Saturday, August 01, 2009 1:17 PM To: gc-gateway@rootsweb.com; miwayne@rootsweb.com Subject: [MIWAYNE] downriver genealogical name list I would have loved to have checked for a name, unfortunately it won't open for me.
