Marcia's genealogy report
 This site is created to share pictures and genealogical information with
friends and family. It is a work in progress.
In
the year 2000 I retired, left the harsh winters of Western New York, and moved
onto a sailboat with my husband Fred. Our life at sea can be seen at
http://thetroubadours.tripod.com.
In 2004 we needed a sabbatical
from life at sea and established a land base in Munich Germany. Our desire
was to live in the land of our ancestors, make music, learn the culture and the
language. I also planned to search for family roots. Pictures
from our German experience can be found on the same site, at http://thetroubadours.tripod.com/sabbatical_travel.htm
. I
I focused quickly on Fred's side once other family members found a place to start in
Önsbach, in Baden-Württemberg, Deutschland. My top banner is the home,
then and now, of our ancestor Friedrich Doll/Anna Maria Stephan who emigrated
from Germany in 1834. Extended family includes Weber and Stephan families,
also from Önsbach and surrounds. Follow the Önsbach
connection.
Additionally I am searching for the Wolf ancestors on Marcia's side,
which I believe emigrated from Hessenburg, Germany and settled in Bellevue Ohio.
Pictures and information on this family line are in the formative stages and
will follow at a later date.
German names and places which contain umlauts may not be readable for all
viewers. I have created a table of names and places as they would be
written with and without the umlaut, for reference purposes.
