Gloria, I found the following on Klaus WUST's passing but I don't have anything on the other two researchers; but I am almost certain that I heard Henry Z. JONES, Jr. died just a couple of years ago. I am not sure about the status of Ralph CONNOR. Byline: THE WASHINGTON TIMES Klaus WUST, who spent the last 60 years of his life helping Germans and Americans to better understand each other, died May 6, after a prolonged period of failing health at Woodstock Memorial Hospital in Woodstock, Va. He was 77. So many of the faithful and knowledgeable are passing, more reason for the generations coming behind them to take an interest in preserving our "true" heritage. The old German dialect is no longer spoken by the masses even in Germany and it is hard to find those that are able to translate these old documents with complete accuracy. These men were connected to many of those able to translate with understanding and then published much that will go on for years. Also, in the Shenandoah Valley area is the name ANDRICK. Frederick ANDRICK's will probated in Shenandoah (Dunmore) County on 24 Nov 1772. As you know, when going through those old document books the Hs and As can also get confused so everything else has to line up too. Chocy

Hank Z. Jones was still kicking two years ago. Probably a wild rumor started by That Darn Cat! Hank Jones, the jazz guy, just passed a few months ago. ----- Original Message ----- From: <Chocybrown@aol.com> To: <vashenan@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, August 06, 2010 9:55 AM Subject: [VASHENAN] WUST-JONE-CONNER > Gloria, > I found the following on Klaus WUST's passing but I don't have > anything on the other two researchers; but I am almost certain that I > heard Henry > Z.
