Find Family

I am researching the family history of the HEINECKE and FUCHS surnames. Other major family surnames include ALAMINSKI, ALBERS, BAUER, BERTSCH, CITZLER, CORDES, ERDMANN, FISCHER, GAU, GERDES, HENGST, KEILERS, KNITTLE, KRAATZ, LANGE, LENERT, MAECKEL, MARQUART, MARTENS, MARTH, MOELLENBERNDT, ROLOFF, SCHELLBURG, WITT, and WOLFF. All of my ancestors settled in central Texas in the mid to late 1800s. Many exact points of origin are not yet known, but known sites include Mecklenburg-Strelitz; Badersleben, Cammin, and Mollenbeck, Mecklenburg-Schwerin; Ratibor, Silesia; and Brieg County, Silesia, and Moravia.

Please visit my "DESCENDANT TREES" and "FAMILY INDEX" links for more information on names and birth/death dates.

I would appreciate any information on these surnames and am eager to share any data that I already have with other researchers.
