Hi, Is anyone researching any of the German families who settled in the Jenera or Arlington areas in the 1830s? They were involved in a shipwreck on the Virginia coast, eventually settled near Jenera and founded the Lutheran church there. They have a fascinating story and I know quite a few people have looking into the matter. Some of the names are: BAUER, ARRAS, TRACHT, BITSCH (now Beach) and PRICE. I know there quere many others but those are the ones that stick in my mind. Brian Bowers ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
