I would like someone to explain if they know. The living condition of Kappel / Wattwil and Zurich in 1735. A mode of travel from Kappel / Wattwil and Zurich in spring of 1735. I was at a computer meeting and one of our members went to Germany a few weeks ago. He had pictures of his ride down the Ryan river. If any one could help me and my cousins how our 5th and 4th great grandparents and children would have traveled down from Basel. If this person just happen to have pictures they could share with us would be most welcomed. I have the names of over 30,000 of my distant kin and those who are living would like to know this too. My mother and father 4th great grandparents left Kappel / Wattwil / Zurich / Basel.
