Can't say that I have been kicked out of a better place...so, I guess, you can include me...must have missed the original message!!!! LOL Love my Lists!!!!!

Below are the names that I am researching.....
Bernhardt/Herman Schmidt from Wettrup....Parents,Johan Herman & Helena Maria Diecker ...Maria Elisabetha Spielmayer/Spellmeyer from Osnabrueck....Parents Johan Friedrich and Maria Elisabeth Renckemayer.
Fredrich Dedeke and Margaretha Schroeder.
I DID see the original, and thought it was a limited invitation - but why should I miss the fun, especially when I made such a mess of transferring my address to get back here. I have certainly enjoyed reading all the names, few of which except the most common I might claim as relatives -- but a lot of them surely sound like people I went to school with in Evansville Indiana - an Ohio River town which was on the GERMAN highway from Cincinnati to St.Louis!
various spellings of - REMSTEDT / LULLMAN-LUHLMAN / SEVEUS / LURTE-LUERKE / MEYER /PAPPENHAUS
Alas - my MULLERS are in "Volksheim, Rhine Hessen" ; my SCHMIDTS are from Idar-Birkenfeld, and my DIETRICHs from Pfalz.
?? and is "Geshe" pronounced like "Jane" ? That's what the Ripley County census taker put down for one daughter of John and Margaret (HOMFELD)LULLMAN. She married an Ehlers. There are lots of Germans in Ripley County claiming Hannover as their homeland.
No, not really. Gesche has a hard G like go.
