ponfick history
I am beginning tracing my family history and came across your postings.I am the son of Walter J. Ponfick (Giddings, Tx) who was the son of Waldermar and Emma Ponfick of Carmine,Tx.It appears that you have traced the Ponfick's back to Pegnitz in the late 1700's.My daughter, Lisa, who just graduated from medical school, has indicated to me that there is a medical term called "Ponfick's Shadow" that relates to red blood cells, so there must be a Doctor somewhere way back in our history.I am anxious to hear from any of you.
