My ancestors Aloise Muhla born 1862 in Alsace , France , and his Brother Louis born 1866 also born in Alsace , France , are the "ghosts in my tree". There Father was an Antoine Muhla . All i know is that they all emigrated to the US Pennsylvania around 1900. "Can anyone trace there footsteps in Pennsylvania from 1900?". It would be good to learn about there lives as French emigrants. Thank you everyone.
