I have been researching these Families on and off for about 20 years and now have an excess of 2500, mostly from Germany and including those who went to Russia at the invitation of CatherineII Czarine of Russia and later reissued by AlexanderI.
For the Russian part I give grateful thanks to Cousin Herbert
Thurn who traveled to Germany basically to our Ancesteral Town of Eusserthal in the Bavarian section and various towns in the Black Sea & Ukraine areas of Southern Russia and has put together a 400 Page book of our Ancestors in the North & South Dakota area. Herb & wife Mildred live in Bismarck, North Dakota.
I am also immensely grateful to My Cousin Jim Blum who has contributed with regard to our other line who settled in Ottowa, Sandusky, and Scott County areas in Northern Ohio, and many others to numerous to mention. Jim lives in Milbury, Ohio
I basically have entered Mother & Fathers and there children
because my ancestors were prolific in the reproduction process!!
