I am looking for information on my husband's family line. Engel, Gaffke, Hermann and Fuhrman all from Prussia. Immigrated to the United States in about the 1870's-1880's all settled in Huron County Michigan primarily Port Hope located in the upper part of the thumb.

Thank you so much Michael Boscarato! This is great....I'm looking right this minute....I know I've got relatives in Mettmann Germany and have asked a cousin (several times) for information about my German relatives but as of yet, they haven't replied..

This is very kind of you...thank you once again.

I am looking for info on Henry Rickle (Rickli, Rickly) born 1836 in Switerland?, Died 4 May 1883 in New City, NY (Clarkstown). Married to Eva Katherin Fetig. I've been trying to link him back to Europe. My confusion stems from one Census listing him as Swiss and another as German. I believe Eva was from Barvaria but I'm not sure if they married before or after coming to the US. I don't have ready access to resources in NY so before I start sending checks out for a wild goose chase I'm trying to post up to different sites.

I have traced my ancestry back to 1675. Johann Heinrich Erdle born in Triebes, Thuringen, Germany. I am looking for earlier ancestors. Name became Artley in the late 1700's in Pennsylvania.

Hi Group, I'm asking for your help in finding out more about my Great Grandmother, Angeline Heeren. I believe she was born in Iowa about March 1856 and died 1937 in Adams Co., Iowa. She married Cornelius Rah (1857-1930) 19 Aug 1876 in Rock Island, Il. What I can't find is her parents. I know they came to America from Germany. I just don't know what their names are or when they came. Do you have a Heeren in your family????

I am interested in finding out more about the Hempel family. My husband's grandfather came to South Africa in the latter half of the 19th century.

Hello group, I am interested in Valentine and Lizbeth? Carrick from the Baden area. They came to Baltimore, Maryland by 1850. Believe they were born about 1800-1810.
