I am researching the Steffes family.This is my website for the Steffes family from Treis on the Mosel River between Cochem and Koblenz.
http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~konrath/steffes.htmlhttp://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~konrath/steffes.html
There was also a Steffes family from Müllenbach, near Cochem.The records for the Müllenbach Steffes begin in the early 1700's.Many of the Müllenbach Steffes emigrated to the United States, settling in Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin and Michigan.These families were Catholic.
NOTE:I spent years looking for my Konrath family in Koblenz because that was the location handed down thru the family.Like many of the emigrants, they simply said they were from the nearest "big" city.
Hope this helps.
