Hi, Researching FAY/FEY... My husband's family have their roots from the late 1600s until emigrating in 1840 in the above area. Prior to that time, we don't know where they lived, nor do we know who of their relatives remained in the area. They had inter-married with numerous different families, including the Martini or Martine family. It was the Martini/Martine line that continued to live in the house after they emigrated. Schneppenbach has also been identified as in Hunsruchen. I take that to mean the area near the Hunsruchen Mts in that area where the Mosselle and Rhine Rivers converge. I have checked with the maps in that area, and have been given that area when I enter these town, but none of them show on the map. Is anyone familiar with this area, or with anyone from this area? I would be willing to share all the data that I have on these people. Thank you, Karen Teichmann Fay
