I'm the one that has "spoken" (email) to your brother Jason about the Wittstruck genealogy. I was surprised to hear that there were a couple of Wittstrucks up in Canada. When I started this adventure I too never realized how many Wittstrucks there were out there. A few months back I got an email from a Charles Martin Wittstruck who lives in Michigan. I was happy to hear from him as he has the same name as my great-great-grandfather and I had seen his name from time to time browsing around on the internet. Always wondered who he was. I enjoyed hearing from your brother too. I'm always thrilled to meet another Wittstruck! Your brother gave me some info and I think I sent him a copy of everything I have so far. (I have gotten a little more since then) It seems to me he was getting ready to go back to school when we talked. If I didn't send him the info please let me know and give me an address and I'll send it to him. If you would like a copy let me know and I will send it to you too. I see from my notes that you have an aunt Sharon and Beverley and an uncle Duane. I think I've seen these names before but I don't have any info on them such as birth or death dates, names of sposes, childrens names, where they live, etc. I have alot of Wittstruck names that I have on file but can't connect them to their parents. Maybe some of these names belong to your side of the family.If there is any info you could give me to help me with this I would appreciate it. You don't have to give me any birthdates if you are leary of doing so, I understand. I used to live in Omaha, NE and had relatives who lived in Lincoln. I wish I was older when I lived there because I would have made the effort to meet all the Wittstrucks I could. They are an interesting bunch of people. Well, email me if you would like to talk or if there is anything you are curious about. Love to hear from you! Tell Jason I said hi! Take care! Diana (Wittstruck) Thompson [email protected]
