Our great grandfather Johannes Atz came to America in 1850 from Pratteln, Switzerland. We know that there were two brothers John Jakob and Heinrich that also came over. We are looking for their descendants. Also John married in 1853 to Susan Sauers on Wells county, Indiana. They had seven sons and one daughter all of whom we know something about except Frederick who is supposed to have gone to Alaska shortly after 1880 when he was in MN.We certainly would appreciate any information on any Atz from Switzerland and especially any in Alaska who might be descendants of Frederick Atz.
