Welcome!

Here you will find the genealogies of these families: Behrig, Bernard, Brosseau, Feltes, Gilboe, Glidden, Hansan/Hansen, Hardy, Ivie, Jones, Meyer, Peregoy-Pedigo, Perry, Rieden, Rivers, Seurer, Seymour, Slaughter, Thornton, Tuhee, Wandt, and Wasserman. I am also interested in these families: Achter, Gaudin, Hauroth, Hoffman, Laux, Massapoux, Pierson, Poupon, Tempels, Wageners, Woelwer, and Zander. I have found sufficient information on these families to include them here although they are not of my direct line Koenigs, and Foertsch.

WARNING! This page will always be "under construction"!

If you come across anything that you can add to or that is incorrect, please PLEASE send me e-mail at athorn@prismnet.com. If I just haven't added it yet, at least I'll know someone's interested. If I don't have the information yet, great! If you have an idea or request that could make this page better, wonderful! I can't promise I'll be able to make changes very quickly but only as time permits.
