This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Reitz Warters Reihle Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/5519/RRB.2ACE/716.1 Message Board Post: My great grandfather, Jacob Reitz, is the son of Conrad Reitz and Mary Warters and therefore sounds like the younger brother of the Ida Mary Reitz that you mention although I see her name listed as Idea in this post: http://awt.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=:811135&id=I1787&ti=5519 I'm wonder who you were actually referring to when you say "Her grandparents" in your third sentence, because eventhough I have Joseph Warters and Maria Theresa as the parents of Mary Warters, I have Johann Michael Reitz and Anna Elisabethe (?) as the parents of Conrad (*not* Peer Reitz and Catherine as you mention).

I'm actually even more interested in any info on Adelaide Riehle-Reitz, wife of Jacob Reitz which I mentioned above - I can trace Jacob's side back to Germany/France but can't find much at all on Adelaide. This is all I could find, but no one seems to know anything about Maude so it may not be related: http://search.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/sse.dll?db=messageboards&cres=34;2%2c42;1%2cssdi;2%2c&gsfn=adelaide&gsln=riehle&prox=1&yeart=a&ti=0&sourceid=2524&submit.x=0&submit.y=0&gss=angs&GS=RIEHLE+ADELAIDE I also have more info if necessary or interested (most of my mother's side is from Olean and/or Alleghany going back 150+ yrs to current day). Thanks a lot.
