Hi Richard,
I am looking for the eventual link of my ROHRER family origins to swiss emigrants as my GGGrandfather was born in East Prussia and he married OLIVIER Wilhelmine who is supposed to come from Switzerland. I know that in early 1700 several people from Obwalden emmigrated to East Prussia. At that time people used to marry same kind of origine. Therefore I assume that the ancestors of Gottlieb came also from Switzerland. Can you possibly help??
Thank you for your reply.
