Dear Marge in TX: Longnecker would be the 'anglicized' name for possibly: Langenegger Lenggenhager Lüchinger But I did not check in FNBS to see if Longnecker is actually listed there (my FNBS is at work and I'm at home right now). Please submit your request to check for Longnecker in FNBS and von Moos by starting at the SwissGen Swiss Surname Directory webpage and then following on to the query page. http://swiss.genealogy.net/surnam-m.htm best wishes, Dave Schmutz -----Original Message----- From: Marge [mailto:cedarcrk@ultravision.net] Sent: Thursday, February 10, 2000 7:21 PM To: SWITZERLAND-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [SWITZ] Question re Surname Hi everyone, I would like to know if the name LONGNECKER might come from Switzerland.
