I'm sending this email to a number of HALTER researchers that I've corresponded with in the past, hoping to see if anyone has any new information on the HALTER families who came from Alsace to America. It is a fact that some of the HALTER families stopped for a while in Stark and Carroll counties in Ohio. Some of them moved on westward to MO and other states. Below are a few of the many connections between the Schott & Halter lines. I am hoping to put a few of these families together, linking back through Ohio to Alsace. My husband's direct Halter line is: 1 Louis Halter 1765 - m. Madeline Royer 1769 - 2 Mathias Halter 1807 - 1873 m. Theresa Mary Marz 1812 - 1865 3 Louis Halter 1843 - 1883 m.
