However, that is not written in stone. On page 77 of our book: "...Since his family were 'lintwevers' (ribbon-weavers), one would expect to find them in a more densely populated area to better market their merchandise." I would be most interested in learning more of your Terhunes in Limburg... Family lore does, indeed, indicate that our Terhunes were Huguenots...but, unfortunately, validation has yet to be found in support.
