There are many DUX in these emmigration files.? Remember to look under all the names, Carl, Johan, Gottfried...records do not always show the name we think will be used. Also, check the years a couple before and after when you think they immigrated. I have found all kinds of dates in the US records and?none of them are ever exactly the same.? I think as time went on the exact date they arrived wasn't so important. Good luck BJ? http://www.dad-recherche.de -----Original Message----- From: EarlaAngell <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Wed, 29 Apr 2009 8:14 am Subject: [PRUSSIA-ROOTS] looking for help with DUX family in Borkendorf West Prussia Hello all -I am new to the list This query is because I do not know how to start with this family .
