Hi don't know if this will go through to the list from my home email. But if you have anything on Terpening's or Smith's in that area I would be most interested in hearing about it. My 2nd great grandmother is buried down there someplace near Ewing MO. Her name is Martha Nicolina Armstrong Terpening. Also, send me you link when you get things up and running and I can check out your page. Have been waiting along time for someone to put something on this page. Thanks for your work and time.

My sister's husband is of German descent and she has ordered many genealogical documents from there. She has also corresponded directly with some of his German counterparts. She had this to add to the old German names as they relate to the Anglicized names after immigrating to the States: "I have seen some of these. Also, some of the men's names especially were found in late 1600's, early 1700s as their official names and not nicknames. Very early our John was Hans. Later usually Johannes and still later was Johann. Sometimes brothers would be Johannes and Johann in same time periods. Johannes was popular in Switzerland. Rarely found Hans after very early 1700s in SW Germany. Some of the girls nicknames were the same in English. In Germany, girl's maiden name changed endings a lot. Kind of endearing term. Lots of times ended in "en" etc. Anna Klee was also Klerin and other endings I have seen. Also, in very early records, I have seen Nicholas shown as Nickel many times, but not much later."
