We may have spoken before. My Steckel people settled in Lehigh County.They came ,as far as I know, from Alsace.or Switzerland.They could be from Baden,who knows for sure?!My Steckel people had many of the names you mentioned.I have been to the cemetary in Reiglesville Pa, where some of your Bucks County Steckels are buried.One big question; HOW IN THE HELL DID A STECKEL WIND UP IN AUSTRAILIA???????????????????????
