The Donald Clemons Family Home Page

We are Donald and Gisela Clemons. Donald's father and mother were Hannibal C. Clemons of WV and VA and Carolyn Kackley of VA. Gisela's father and mother were Georg Romeiser of Nordhausen, Germany, and Katharina Krieger of Kaiserslautern, Germany. We are especially interested in the GINESTE family. We spend part of the year on our small farm in the Languedoc highlands of southern France. The Gineste family occupied our house there, in the hamlet of Prades, near Brassac (Tarn), from about 1840 to the 1960s. Their Protestant cemetery is on the property, but has no markers. A member of the Gineste family left the house in the 1850s to work as a shoemaker in San Francisco. We are searching for information about that Gineste and his descendants in the US.
We will be grateful for any information about our own family and especially about the GINESTE family.
