Hi again Debra, Do you know where Weyler, Steinsberg, Hilsbach, Germany might be in connection to Krombach, Krechgau, Germany? That is where my RITTERs are from and if they are close to each other then it could be a possibilty. Do you know when Mary Magdalena came here? I believe that my RITTERs came in the 1730's. I've seen a few RITTERs made it over then including 4 brothers named Caspar, Martin, Henry and Paul. With the names that run in those 4 brother's familes I wonder if they might be connected in some way to the RITTERs names that I sent to the list. I still need to do more research to make that connection though. There's a George RITTER that was born about 1685 that lived in Oley and had a son Frantz/Francis. I think that he might be connected also. Myself and another researcher are trying to make that connection. I'm going to see what I can find. Take care, Ella
