Hi Jerry, We've met. I've been to the German Bohemian picnic quite often with Char Kastanek. Char's mom and I are sisters. I'm not sure what you are looking for as far as information is concerned. I went to Spaichingen and Aixheim Germany in 1981 and visited with the Guldens who still reside there. They have also been to Minnesota and to New Ulm within the last 15 years and I have the e-mail address of one of them. They have a total family history way back to Wilhelm Gulden. Maria Effinger was married to Philipp Gulden. Philipp was born April 29, 1717 and died May 26, 1760. Wilhelm Gulden was born around 1670 and was married to Maria Veser. They are the parents of the above Philipp. Is this the sort of stuff you are looking for? I got a great deal of information from Judy Manning who is a decendant of Nicholas Gulden and his first wife, Gertrude Hillesheim. I am a descendant of Nicholas and his second wife, Elizabeth Schaeffer. Judy Manning and her husband live in Brooklyn Park and we correspond regularly. Judy's sister and her husband have been to Germany quite frequently to visit the Gulden's out there. (Max and Hugo Gulden) I have collected so many photos and information on the Gulden family (there are so doggone many of them) that my 3-ring binder is beginning to look like a rolodex. If you have specific questions, I would love to help you answer them. If you are starting from scratch, you will have to come visit and bring a copy machine!!!!!!
