Hi Mary, Sorry to wait so long to answer, I'm just going back to read some of the emails I never got around to yet. I have Anna Maria Catherine Schnieders in my database with parents as you note, but no record of her husband or descendants. The data I have comes from Sexton Veit. Anna Maria Catherine's brother John Herman had a daughter Mary Anna Theresia who married Albert Veit, my Uncle Rudolph Veit's parents. -----Original Message----- From: moosage-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:moosage-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Mary E.
