blank family tree

BLANK FAMILY TREE


From Estorf, Germany to Door Co. Wisconsin, USA


Most of the information in the BLANK line of my family I obtained from the Book called Filling in the Blanks by Hedwig Rebecca Poehler, published for our family in 1969. I am in the process of copying it onto the computer now. I can do lookups for anyone who thinks they might be related. Here on the Web Page I have only fleshed out my direct lines. The book has much more information to offer. Please contact me at the email address found at the bottom of each page. I am just learning how to do all this stuff so thanks for your patience.


Before generation One below I have some recent information to bring forth. I found this on the Rootsweb Surname listings. It was posted 25 Aug 1999 by Candy, a fourth cousin. I am listing these newly found generations as A, B, C. Thanks Candy, this is a great find for me and all the Blanks. I look foreward to hearing from you in the future. It is always nice to find a relative.
