Hi,
My Kappesser family came from Heiligenmoschel and Kaiserlautern.That's not too far from where you live if I am not mistaken.I can't seem to find Engelstadt on my map of Germany.I see Mainz tho so I have a very good idea how close you are to where my family came from.There is a very good chance that your family is part of mine.Kappesser isn't a super common surname so I really believe all Kappessers are related somehow.My family came to the US in the 1850's and settled mostly in the Syracuse, Ny area.I have quite a bit of info on my line, some info back into Germany.I would love to share it with you......please email me directly at [email protected] have a friend who lives in Karlsruhe and she and her boyfriend took a trip to Heiligenmoschel and took many pictures for me.It is very beautiful there and looks very much like the area in NY my family settled in and that I still live in.... many many farms and lots of vineyards in this area!I would love to talk to you further and share my info too!I look forward to talking to you more soon!
