Hello Gretchen, You and I corresponded a few years back, and you gave me some info relating to this family. Thanks!! These KOLBET people are my husband's line, and I believe the Stearns /Benton co. MN family is pretty well covered. I am still researching the family in Iowa, there are still KOLBET families there and also NebraskA, I believe some also went to Washington state and nearby states. The GOEDERT family which also came from Trier/Luxumbourg, Germany is the family I am attempting to trace more closely now. I also found that there was a connection to the Diederich surname in Iowa anyway. thanks, Ellen ----- Original Message ----- From: "gretll" <gretll@clearwire.net> To: <trier-roots@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, December 12, 2006 1:35 PM Subject: Re: [TRIER-ROOTS] Kolbert/Kolbet genealogy > Hello: > > I came across this name while researching the Luxembourg community in > Stearns County and Benton County, Minnesota. > > Susanne Kolbet/Kolbert married John P.
