I can ask Mr. Hug from the local LDS center here (the one near Basel) to recommend a researcher who has already experience in your area of interest. Sorry that it took me so long to answer but I had to ask Mr Hug first if this is OK with him. Best regards, Regula >> I wrote to Mr. Hug once and got no reply. According to Moo's he did some work on the surname of Bienz. I was trying to find out if it included or he came across the Bienz of Basel-Stadt. If you have contact with him. Please let me know. Thanks Ed Bienz in NY
