Hello List.
Have found birth certificate for GGG Uncle and Aunt.
He is listed a being born in Kettwig
Werden, Rheinland, Pruessen and she was born in Aachen, Rheinland,
Pruessen. I am unable to find these
towns/villages anywhere. Would they
be in Hannover?
Sure would appreciate any information you might be able to send that
would
point me in the right direction.
Thanks again for all your many kindnesses......you have helped me so
much on other searches.

Kettwig and Werden are in Rheinland, northeast of Dusseldorf. Depending on
the years you are looking at, there are church records available through the
LDS microfilm. Aachen is also in Rheinland, almost on the Netherlands
border. west of Bonn and northwest of Köln. There are LDS records from there
as well.

Hi Lois,
We visited Aachen last year. It is a very interesting large city almost on
the border with the Netherlands (or France - I don't remember which). The
French name is Aix -la-Chapelle. An ancient city, we visited a cathedral
built by Charlemagne in the ninth century. But, perhaps there is another
Aachen in the Rheinland. Go to www.expedia.com, chose the link to maps,
then "topographic maps" for your search, then "find a map." This helpful
website will give you a list of all locations (in Germany, if you type in
Germany after Aachen) that could be possible for your search - including
variations in spelling.
Hope this helps,
Cora
