I am new to this list and researching my Hesse ancestors. I have some information: mygrandmother was a daughter of Johann and Eliz. They, with children, Elizabeth (daughter of 1st marriage, her mother died when she was born), Maria Anna, Elizabetth, Maria Elizabeth, Maria Theresia, Johann and Regina (my grandmother) emigrated to the US (Arkansas) in 1880. I have a copy of Regina's birth certificate that a friend graciously got for me. Now I would like to find more information. The family was Roman Catholic. So - - -where do I go, who do I contact? Any and all suggestions would be most appreciated.
