New Zealand Completed Requests / Re: Feakins/Payne

Somewhere back in the 1900s I was researching the Rogers family and had an address to write to for Methodist records but when driving through Bell Block we came across the graves of William Rogers and his wife Eliza Scandlyn which we had been hunting for. Badly damaged and tucked away in the corner of an empty section on the corner of Mangati Road. Was going to get permission to restore this grave but a new church popped up on the same property and the grave was restored. I then ceased to follow up on finding the records until now this Feakins family have surfaced and they are buried in the same cemetery.

Does anyone know where the old records are and can we access them or were they destroyed with the church? 

Ted - what is your interest in the Rogers family? This is my husband's line and I have some information, including a picture of the gravestone of William Rogers and Eliza Scandlyn.

Europe / Re: GERMANY: Familienbucher Oberrosbach v.d. Höhe & Grüningen look up offer

Jenny,

I would love to have pics of Ober Rosbach.

FYI - my direct line goes like this:

My mom
My grandmother Dorothy May Snyder Lane (b. 1907 Idaho)
Henry George Snyder (b. 1872 Ober Rosbach)
son of Johannes Schneider (b. 1847 Busenborn, Schotten) & Maria Katharina Storck (b. 1840 Ober Rosbach)

Maria Katharina Storck (b. 1840) was the daughter of Johann Philipp Storck (b. 1804 Ober Rosbach) and Dorothy Cristina Engel (b. 1806 Ober Rosbach).

I was wondering how you got a copy of the Familienbuch.  Is it possible to purchase one?

Cheers,
Cindy

Jenny -

Just came across your offer.  I'm working on STORCK, GRILL, ENGEL and WALLBURG.  What I am looking for is birth, death, marriage dates, and, of course parent names  :)  What I know is:

Georg Heinrich STORCK married Anna Margaretha GRILL.  Gerhard, their first child, was born Dec 1799.

Hans Wilhelm Heinrich ENGEL married Cristina Dorothea WALLBURG.  One child, Dorothea Cristina ENGEL was born 30 Oct 1806.

I am envious that you were able to visit Germany.  I was there nearly 30 years ago, quite near where my rellies are from, but at that point I wasn't interested in genealogy.  Someday I'll get back!

Thanks for much for your help. 

Cindy
