died in 1815 at Bonshaw Mills, Bonshaw, PEI. He married Margaret Orr in 1773. They had 8 children. I am anxiously tracking this family and would like to know where they began. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Would like to find any THALER who has who has orgins from Austro-Hungaria-Rumania. My father George Thaler was German & Hungarian from a village near Transylvania which is now in Rumania.
He attended a German school, but I am not sure exactly where. I've also been told that many of the Germans left this region after WWII. I would love to find a German speaking relative to teach my beautiful baby girl German.

Extremely nice presentation. Have found several items of interest. Searching for link to connect with records of my great-grandfather, Carl Ludwig Gustav Lehmann (1824-1892) Born in Landsberg an der Wartha, Prussia (Now Weilskopolski, Poland). Came to USA
with two sons: Paul, Johann Maximilian, ca. 1856. Have all family history in USA. Need connect with records in (now)Poland to find possible sibling records and possible relatives still residing in Germany-Poland.

We do understand that some Littau's did go to Argentina, I would like to hear from any Littaus.

working with church records from 1811-1967 from
the church in Zirkwitz. Your sample of old German
script and naming patterns has been most
interesting. Thank you for this s

From what I saw so far (I have been doing my research by many means over many years)- you are doing a great job. Am searching for the parents of my father Otto Hermann Gustav Papin, born on 27 Sep 1888 in Alt-Dollstaedt, Krs. Pr. Holland, Eastprussia, and
baptised 28 Nov 1888 in Kgl. Blumenau, Krs. Pr. Holland, as well as for other Papins in the greater Elbing area.
