Hi Sven, you said:
<snip>My sweeping mail was because other came up with not very motivating
stuff. Things move on a lot with the contact to other people and why
waiting to find almost everything before contacting. I researched almost
80% of all Honerkamp that ever lived, their place of origin and about
the name itself and my guessing is based on experience <snip>Sven
These are most people's sentiments - I also add, I do not solely look for
surnames. Together with thousands of others, my family tree is on
www.genesconnected.co.uk - On the premise that names are handed down in the
family I made contact with someone who had a forename 'Ketzia', in an area I
was interested in. How lucky can you get! my tree was expanded by over 100
names going back to 1640 and I was given copies of family 'Last Will &
Testaments' and 'Inventories', importantly the reason why I couldn't find my
family was due to army conscription in the 1700's. This is why I suggested
to Virginia it is also helpful to look for sibling names.
