I have been referred to this website as having information on a family I am
researching, the ECKERT family. The Google/Babelfish translation however is
very unclear on where they were coming from, it seems to indicate Dietzenbacher?
Would some kind soul look at it for me and see if that is correct? Also it
seems to be saying the ones in the second paragraph settled in Indiana, but
most of the families there I recognize from the Darmstadt, St Clair County
Illinois area. Am I reading that wrong? In U.S. census records John Wendel Eckert
states he was born in Hessen Darmstadt as well as his wife Anna Maria
PERSHBACHER. They were the first German marriage in Darmstadt, Illinois March 1, 1839.

you all have been such a wonderful help to me in my search for the Stolberg's
in Hannover that I had hoped someone would help me with this as well.
thank you!
