Good morning list, I'm looking for Schwenkfelder Families! :) I came across Laura HEEBNER, who had written a have nice story for "CONNECTING THROUGH ROOTSWEB." I recognized the surname HEEBNER --knowing this was my daughter-in-law's, ancestor's surname, who came over on the Ship "St. Andrew" & was of the Schwenkfelder Families from the Palatinate area of Germany. I contacted Laura & found out that her & her husband Gerald (Jerry) HEEBNER are managing a project up at the Schwenkfelder Library & Heritage Center that was begun by the Exile Society in 1980. They (we) are looking for descendants of the people listed in the Genealogical Record (G.R.) to bring the information up to date & MULLER is one of the surnames. I think there may be a lot of people out there that descend from the "Schwenkfelder Families" & have not been recognized or found, & especially from the Berks Co. area. There was more than one ship the "Schwenkfelder Families" came over on. Here is "St. Andrews" passenger ship list, 21 Sep 1727, Philadelphia, PA.
