| Message | Hello Folks, It is good to see this website and Arthur Becker working on it. Hello Arthur! I also have a Wendish name in my family tree. It is Teschner. I am glad to hear of your work. Some many moons ago I read that about 1/4 of the total heritage pool of Poland was actually Germanic and 1/3 of the total heritage pool of what used to be East Germany was Slavic. In Luther's time there were Wendish hamlets outside of Wittenberg and it was a trilingual town using what became standard High German, Low German and Wendish. God bless! Horst Gutsche |

| Message | I just saw the Ottawa Valley site for the first time and realized that the family we always thought was German is probably Wendish from Palmer Rapids. This is very exciting,looking forward to getting more info on the culture etc. |

| Message | I am searching for Mary Catherine Girard. She is my GG Grandmother. Some of my family members said that she came to Texas because of religious percusion in Germany, she was Lutheran.Mary was born 1829, died 1908. She married Christopher Koinm 1854 in Harris county Texas. I have been unable to locate either person prior to 1854. If you could help please do so. They lived north of Houston in Humble Texas, in fact they were one of the founding families of Humble. I would love to track them to Germany and one day soon visit wher they were raised. Thanks; George Koinm |
