I am interested in exploring family history with anyone else interested in the BENTZ surname with connections in Neudorf, S. Russia and then in the Dakotas of USA. My Grandmother's BENTZ family settled near Fairfax, Gregory County, South Dakota after a few years in the Menno, South Dakota area where they first lived in a small adobe across the creek from their KIRCHMAN kinfolk.
