It appears Dean addressed this to me thinking I originated the post. I readdressed it to Janet via the list and am forwarding it to the list since I don't have Janet's address/name anymore. Regards, Paul near Portland, Oregon ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ From: Dean Leuzinger <[email protected]> To: 'Paul Rands' <[email protected]> Subject: RE: [SWITZ] Endowments for the Dead Date: Sun, 05 Jan 2003 06:22:20 -0700 Hi Janet - don't know if I can be much help or not - I have 7 Streiff's from abt. 1605 thru 1659 all from Canton Glarus. I show marriages with Legler, Vogel & Spaelti. My notes indicate the info came from Ancestral File section of familysearch.org To test my reference, today, I just did a name search for "Fridolin Streiff", "no dates", "Switzerland" as country - familysearch.org showed me 117 references, some in 1800s. I haven't continued developing my Streiff line, as I'm looking for "Leuzinger".
