Bill I have Scottish ancestors (WADDELL), Bohemian ancestors (BLAUSTERN), German ancestors (LIEBRECHT/LEBRECHT) and Prussian ancestors (DAVIES, although I doubt that was their original surname -- they "stopped over" in England for a few years before coming to the US). In each case, I have a timeframe where they would have immigrated but they're all spans of several years, which makes it too time consuming and too expensive to rent NARA films. Lisa
