In my search of who I am, I have discovered that I am just a small part of a very large family who migrated from Germany.  In our family search for a new home  and religious freedom we have covered many of these United States.  Pennsylvania, Maryland, Illinois, North Carolina, Iowa, Montana, Colorado, Oregon and California, just to name the primary ones.

I have been lucky in my search to have been able to benefit from the research of other family members.  To name a few, they are - Mark Arslan, Kenneth Hauser, Elizabeth Harris, Paul Bardell, Randy Hooser, Lori Legg, Rolland K. Hauser and Carleton Tucker, who could be my "partner."  He has sent me so much wonderful information, given me ideas for searching and since we come from the same family I always share with him.

THANK YOU C. T.!!!

I will have links to several pages where this information has been found.  I will have a list of the surnames that make up this large family of mine.  So, I hope you enjoy my small contribution.
