Dear David: Search in SwissGen's SSD http://iseli.simplenet.com/ch-names/ to see if Billeter researched your surname. If he did, then it will tell which villages he researched and what the earliest record was. More info on Billeter on the links below. best wishes, Dave Schmutz -----Original Message----- From: david kester [mailto:dck516@yahoo.com] Sent: Monday, January 17, 2000 2:28 PM To: dschmutz@es.com Subject: Re: [SWITZ] Billeter's research on Kohler Hi List, I've seen quite a bit for Billeter and Bern but what about Billeter and Schaffhausen (SH). Guess I'll have to wait to see what the Zivilstandsamt in Hallau has to say. They're great people to work with there just like the people on this list with all of their helpful suggestions.
