Hello,

Do you have any information on the Winzenreid families? I'm looking for Lora Alumbaugh who married a C. Winzenreid 18 April 1907 in Vigo County, Indiana.

Thanks, Donna Alumbaugh

Amand Herm?

Andy and Stephanie,

I'm married to a Herm. There's a ton of information on this branch of the Herm family. Is this your branch? -- Amand came from Baden to East Peoria/Washington IL. the mid-late 1800's, gave birth to Adam and Bert. Adam married Bertha, they gave birth to Dick (Richard, my father-in-law) in 1918 as well as Lincoln and Kay. Any help?

Amand Herm?

Andy: I am willing to share information- I have only gone back about 3 generations, and am still looking in this country. That is, I am on the generation that got here from Germany. Someone told me Herm is a common name there.
One thing: I am not sure (unless you got this message) that I can get a message to where you can read it. Is there a clearer way to reach you by computer? (or otherwise?)

awesome!

I am researching Herm as a surname. The ones I am related to emigrated to the Chicago, Illinois area from Europe (German and Swiss origin). One of them moved to Arkansas, and the others I am still researching. Glad to hear from you.
