Dear Robert, I helped Vicki Bright with her Bergenhusen line a few months ago and I remember the ODEFEY name, because I thought that it was so unusual. The Bergenhusen parish registers have gaps during the 1700's, but I might be able to extend this line back for you. Karla Nurnberg --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
