hi dianne,
installing a fimpel family genealogy forum incidently i passed the fimple forum. nice to see that there's already sth. in progress.
as i'm only starting my activities i cannot provide many hints. anything i can say that in the south german region of (city names following)
Ravensburg (state Baden-Wuerttemberg, Germany)
Amtzell (state Baden-Wuerttemberg, Germany)
Wangen (state Baden-Wuerttemberg, Germany)
there are a lot of fimpel around. Quite a common name there. additional i sent you an e-mail i (better my uncle wolfgang) have received some weeks ago (see below).
i checked the wulkow connection, but unfortunately i haven't found a hint about any fimpel up there in the north east of germany. but please feel free to check the links again:

Betreff: Fimpel/Fimple
Hello Wolfgang:
My name is Jay Fimple.I live in Vinita, Oklahoma, U.S.We have started a website www.fimple.com
My ancestor came over on a ship called the Phoenix in 1752.His name was Johannes Fimpel (and family).We are trying to connect all of the Fimpels/Fimples here in the U.S.There don't seem to be that many.Is Fimpel a common name over in Germany?
Here is my main question.I was told by a professor of Medieval History that the old Castle Wulkow was once owned by the Fimpel family and he also said that one of the Fimpels in the old country was a knight.Thus making all of his descendants eligible for membership in one of several Knightly Orders.Are you familiar with any of this and would you be interested in discussing it?
