I also have Jungs,(and one LeJeune), from the Limbach area, which is right next to Neunkirchen. Check out http://www.reviol.de/index.htm and click on Kirkeler Familien in the menu on the left and then on Familiennamen in the text for all the Jungs in the Kirkel area. You may well get some connections there, considering the close proximity to Neunkirchen.
