Looking for relatives of the above - the furtherst back I have is a John Adam Frierdich m to Anna Maria (no dates but must be early 1700's) with one child listed - Heinrich (Henrich) b 2-06-1753 m to Barbara Shellhorn and my line goes thru one of their children, Matthew. Other siblings were: John, Catherine Barbara, John Adam, Peter, Catherine, and Barbe - all born in the late 1700's. From what I have- they originated in Deidersheim, Germany and migrated to the Waterloo/Columbia IL area. Would love to tie up some loose ends and find more info on this line.
