Our Family 12/06

Thank You

We express thanks and appreciation for all of the information and photos that are contained on this website. Without the assistance, memories and contributions, many of us would never know some of the details of our ancestors. Special thanks to: Robert Phillips, our brother-in-law that spends countless hours and miles tracing family and verifying the dates and information. Dick and Steve Werner and Mary Ann Munsterman, John's brothers and sister that painstakingly processed the family slides onto CD's. Jim Werner, John's brother who visited Germany and found even more information and took great photos. Linda Zapp, our cousin and very experienced professional genealogist that supplied information and most of the newspaper clippings and death notices. Georgene Gahan Cole, our cousin that inherited her family's photos and information and is so giving to share it with us. Brigitte Spechtmeier, who found the oldest family records in Germany. Uncle Frank Steinberger that collected family stories and history before we gave it a thought. And, so many more that are sending photos and sharing memories and visited us. Thank you to all.

In Loving Memory

Mom

In loving memory of Mary Louise Werner, who was our inspiration to start this journey during a wonderful weekend in Madison where she brought the past into our present with her memories and family that we are beginning to know and their descendants that we are connecting to. Her clear memory of people, dates, places and details that others would have forgotten long ago never ceased to amaze us.

Note: Please use only the index on this main page to search names. I am adding so many pages that I will update this index page daily to connect them and will copy the final index onto each page in the future. If you are searching for a female, search her husband's name if you do not see hers. We have many more pages and photos to scan and add!

 

Can you help solve the mystery of a prince?
