Hello I think I have the right list, but it's very quiet! My mother's maternal grandmother, Bertha LEESER was born in Dulmen, Westphalia in 1863, later moving to Rheine. She had several older siblings (Julie, Jakob, Henriette, David, Lina, Emma and Leah. Their parents were Leffman LEESER ( born 1810 in Dulmen) and Rosalie SPIEGEL (born 1823 in Herzfeld). In the family there is a an extensive family tree compiled by a distant cousin in the States. I would like to hear from anyone with a possible connection. Regards Barbara Murrant Hertfordshire, England
I'm looking for Johann Schutz (b. 1809) and Catharina Reinert Schutz (1815) and who settled in Wilmette, IL around 1840s. Catharina Beitzel (1860) came later. Originally all were from Trier.
Yesterday we discovered (from Germans to America) that my husband's ggpa Julius Caesar Hesse and his wife Gertrud Guntermann came from Brilon in Westphalia. So I joined this list in hopes of finding out what records are available for that area and how to access them. -- Marilyn Mills Hesse mmhesse@snet.net Windsor, Connecticut, USA Researching: BRENNER/GLASS/GUNTERMANN/HESSE/MUELLER - in Louisville, KY and Germany HAMILTON/McQUISTON/MILLS/MOORE/WILSON - in Pennsylvania (Crawford Co.& Mercer Co.);N.Ireland;Liverpool,UK CRAIGHEAD/LYNCH/MOODY/ROBINSON - in PA (Beaver Co) and N.

Hi. My John HOFFMAN married in 1865 in Caldonia, Houston County, Minnesota. By the 1870 census, on one page in Caldonia, there were 10 entries noted as coming from Luxembourg. I was wondering if anyone would recognize any of these names and might know where any of them came from in Luxembourg. The spelling might be somewhat wrong as it was difficult to read some names. Ageta VASSEN age 48 Nicolas LEISEE, age 37 John WERNAN age 22 Mathias KLINE age 18 Mathess (?) MAHLTON (?) age 56 or 86 Peter J RILAN (?) age 38 Mary M. PALAN (?) age 5 Gertrude HOFFMAN age 35 Nicolas HOFFMAN age 8 Albert HOFFMAN age 6 Thank you. Karen Miller

Hello out there, I was told there is a gentleman writing a "family book" on Neidenbach, which will include all births, marriages and deaths for the town. Is there a similar book for Densborn, or are these books not very common? Jan Francis Seeking SCHNEIDER, GROSSBACH, KOENIGS, and STEILS
Hi List, I am trying to find the birthplace of my grandmother, Tillie Catherine (Peters) Koetz. All I know is that she was born in 1912, somewhere in Montana. I am hoping that her family may have lived in a community where there were other immigrants from Luxembourg, as my Koetz ancestors did in Minnesota. Any help or suggestions on how to narrow my search in Montana would be a great help! Thanks, Karen

Janet in Michigan Wonderful to find another Hendges researcher. Yes, these names are familiar. Joannes/John Hendges and Margaret Scheidt's daughter Mary Ann was my great-grandmother. There are now 4 people that I'm aware of interested in this Michigan line which makes it more interesting. Janet, please contact me if you would like to exchange info and stories. Deb
Hello, I have difficulties to locate either the birth or the wedding of my ancestor Michel MADERT. He lived in Trier (~1850) but cannot be traced there for birth and weeding. A likely location for these events can be Saarburg (Germany). I wrote to the town archiv. Without answer I looked for the LDS microfilms of the church registers of Saarburg, but (no luck!) these are not available for european residents! Perhaps is someone in the States or in Canada working on this films and can have a look for me? (film numbers are 556 225 and 556 228). Many thanks, Jean-Jacques Schwarz
