There is also a town of Hanau, known as Hanau am Main (sp?) (Hanau on the Main River). It is located in the German province of Hesse, where of course, "Hessians" come from. Lived there 18 months myself back in the early 60s. James Stone Linda S. Matthews wrote: > Dean. There is a Hanau in present day Baden-Wuerttemberg.
