I found your notice and the mention of Gampelen. Are you from Gampelen? My ancestors came from there in the 1850's. The last names included Meister, Wenker, and Wirth. The spelling of your last name is very close to Meister. Would it be a variation? I plan to visit Gampelen in Sept and am contact with hopefully distant relatives. I would really like to find out more about my ancestors as I only have a few names and dates. What is the nearest archives or place to research? Thank you for any help.
