Hi All, I have a similar question regarding immigrants to Circleville. Does anyone know if there was a major town/area in Germany where settlers immigrated from? Thanks to anyone who can help.

Mine, the family of Hans Jacob Lutz, came to Circleville in about 1802....too lazy to look it up right now....Hans Jacob was the third generation in America. His grandfather came from Eschelbach/Sinsheim near Heidelberg....don't know about anyone else. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Carol Dunlavy" <caroldun@hotmail.com> To: <OHPICKAW-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thursday, January 18, 2001 8:28 PM Subject: Re: Migration from Pickaway > Hi All, > I have a similar question regarding immigrants to Circleville.
