Nancy, I have a mystery SPRING person named as the "widow Mrs. Elise SPRING-ROTHEN, her children and grandchildren in Corgemont" listed as survivors in the Death Notice from Switzerland of my ggrandmother Anna ROTHEN-von KAENEL formerly STRUCHEN, dated 1912 in Fontainemelon. She was the widow of Anton von Känel and remarried to Arnold Friedrich Rothen from Ruschegg, Bern, Switzerland. There are ROTHENs listed in England and other villages in Val de Ruz. I know nothing of SPRING yet. What do you know?
