Dear Ann: To find what records are available through the LDS FHCs, start at: http://swiss.genealogy.net/ldsloc-m.htm Then click on GR (for Graubünden canton). Follow the links to Chur. **Swiss researchers** - If you don't know the canton, then use http://www.geocities.com/swissschmutz/chpostal.html to search 1st for the village and the canton is also listed. However, Ann, the Kron family name comes from (according to FNBS 89): Ettingen BL from before 1800 and in 1822 a family emigrated from Germany to Basel (BS) and received citizenship. The rest of the villages listed are in the 1900's. Are you sure they are from Chur? best wishes, Dave Schmutz -----Original Message----- From: Ann Oliver [mailto:user155177@mindspring.com] Sent: Tuesday, January 18, 2000 2:22 PM To: dschmutz@es.com Subject: Re: [SWITZ] Arbon, TG - 2 church registers Can you tell me if the LDS has made copies of the information concerning CHUR?
