Beverly: Both families you are searching FEUTZ (FEUZ) and GERTSCH are listed in Swiss Surnames as in Canton Bern: FEUZ: Beatenberg (a) from before 1800 Gsteigwiler (a) Lauterbrunnen (a) Unterseen (a) Many of them moved at later times into other cantons but all seem to be basically from Bern. GERTSCH - also Canton Bern Lauterbrunnen (a) Lutschental (a) Neither is in Mario Van Moos "Bibliography of Swiss Genealogies" The Family History Center has filmed now much of the church records of Canton Bern and that is where I would start to find relatives. And I would start with Lauterbrunnen. Hope this will be of help to you.
