No Iīm not related at all.

If you want the records i found, I am willing to help with transcriptions and translations.

To make things a bit easier and avoid doing things twice it would help if i knew what records you have (or donīt have).

As i said i have the marriage records of Friedrich Emil, the details of his 2 wives and some of his children.

It might make things a little easier if we do this per eMail.
Send me a PM with your address

Dave

Hello, I am Adam Reinhard Metz's great-great-great granddaughter. Friedrich Emil Metz is my great-great grandfather, and his daughter Charlotte Catherine Maria Johanna Metz was my great-grandmother (my mother, who is 93, called her "Muetterchen," German for "little Mother").  I am the person that posted the information regarding his having changed his name, etc. etc. This is family history that has come down through the generations though I have no evidence that it is actually true. 

You said you are looking for info on Friedrich Emil? Are you related? That would make us cousins.


If you are active on Ancestry.com you can message me directly there.

Also, I speak German and I can read old German script (and much old German handwriting, though not all.)


Looking forward to hearing back from you.

Thanks,
Christa

Hello Christa,
Thank you for getting in touch.
I have tried sending you a personal message but it says your in box is full.
The line we are following is through Carl Heinrich Metz and Geertruida Marie Groeneveld their son Friedrich Emil Dirk Metz and Hendrica Kaarsgaren their son also Friedrich Emil Dirk Metz.
We know the family moved to The Netherlands but don't know when. Friedrich Emil Dirk Jr. Moved to South Africa with his wife who is still living. My D. I. L was born there, her father is still living an in America  now.
Please send me a PM and we can exchange emails which I think would be easier.
Hope to hear from you soon

Hi Kaye,

I think Christa will need to write a couple more posts before the PM function can be used.

Can't remember exactly, but I think it's something like 3 posts.

Best regards,
Karen

Edited:
I just checked.  :)

New members must make at least three postings before being allowed to use the PM facility.

Please note: If you are sending PMs to new members who have less than three posts you will receive an error message, that your limit, or allowed number has been reached. (note that it says your limit, although it actually refers to the recipient.)

Hi there, I was trying to figure out why I couldn't send a PM, thanks for the explanation. This should qualify as post #2 and then I'll post another so I have 3. Let's see if that opens up the chat functionality for me. Thanks!
Christa
