Margery >> Hi Margery and All, I stopped in at the location of this Institute in Kaiserslautern this past July. They have 2 different card files .... One by name and the other by town My relatives were not in either place... But the town where my relatives once lived have published a book.. in 1999, " 300 Jahre Auswanderung aus Otterberg" and in this book it lists my great grandfather his birth and his parents and when he immigrated to the USA. It also his his brother leaving the following year. The lady working in Kaiserslautern told me they have many people but not everyone listed in their card file for immigration... Margaret in Maryland
