1. [OSTFRIESEN-L] een hunnert plus [1]
Moin gang-- Just thought you might like to know that the list now has over 100 subscribers! That's plenty of voices--let's make some noise! Thanks to all of you who have mentioned our group to a friend or two or more and helped get the word out that we are here. And thanks for posting. Without posts we're just air...or something...nothing? There was still a chance I'd be going to the German Valley Fest until earlier this week when my hopes were dashed. I hate to miss it and hope that those of you who
2. [OSTFRIESEN-L] skimpy info but maybe it will work [1]
A cousin who is not online asked if I could post this to you all to see if anyone has any connections with her ancestors: Gesche Margareta Helena MENKE (born 1839 in Bockhorn, Oldenburg) married Alke LUDEMANN (born 1835 in Firrel, Ostfriesland) Gesche's parent's were George MENKE and Anna Margarete WIBBERS (born Bockhorn, Oldenburg) Anna's parent's were Johann Hinrich WIBBERS and Talke KOSCHENHASCHEN (no clues to birth places or dates) Go ahead and clog my mailbox! Thanks, Amy atjaden@mindspring.c

4. [OSTFRIESEN-L] Funny Ossis [1]
Just read Gerriet's jokes about Ostfriesens and it jogged the following in my (rapidly declining) memory. I heard/read once that the mother of the Marx Brothers was from Ostfriesland. Does anyone know if it's true? BTW, my born-in-Berlin coworker, delights in telling me Ossi jokes from time to time. We found a page of them on the Net once and she translated some of them. They are kind of like the state jokes in the US--South Carolinians use North Carolinians as the butt of their jokes etc. But do Ossi

6. [OSTFRIESEN-L] Beating a dead horse...again! [1]
Hallo-- Those of you who have been with me from before this list, just hit the delete button. It's about my Saathoffs. I figure there are plenty of new members who haven't heard my cries for help in finding out about these ancestors so I'm giving them a chance to reach the same level of boredom as the "oldies".

Lin Strong, I received two e-mails that you had sent. I e-mailed privately to you yesterday. Can you tell me if you received it? I was thrilled to hear from you and very much appreciate you taking the time to look up the information for me. Sue Smith smithj@primary.net
11. [OSTFRIESEN-L] Re: Census/Plattdeutsch lessons [0.978038]
This is probably a dumb question but was there ever a census of Ostfriesland done? Count me in for the Plattdeutsch lessons. I see where rootsweb is giving free webspace to groups maybe we could be a group and put it there. Maybe it could be put up in 3 columns English, Palttdeutsch and German. That way those among our company who don't know the regular German could learn that at the same time. I know mine could be alot better! My Vaughn-L list has its own chatroom -doesn't work too well with webtv though
12. [OSTFRIESEN-L] Index of Names [0.978038]
Eileen, I think Bob Borcher's gave you the information that you were searching on the Junker line that was in the East Friesen Roots, by Rev. Kenneth DeWall. The book is only a list of names of obits that were published in the "Ostfriesische Nachrichten" that was published in Breda, IA, but the information for the obits were submitted from all over. To get a translated copy of these obits, you must send $5.00 for the first obit and $4.00 for each two or more after that to: The Ostfriesen Ancestral Resea

16. [OSTFRIESEN-L] Stapelmoor and Wymeer [0.978038]
I am researching a number of surnames belonging to my Ostfriesen ancesters. The two names that I have made the least progress with are for families that lived outside of the Krummhorn area in the villages of Stapelmoor and Wymeer. The names are HEITLAND and NOORDMANN. I know that my great-grandfather, Henry H. HEITLAND, was born at Stapelmoor on April 14, 1850. He married Gretje NOORDMANN in the early 1870's and they came to America in the early 1890's. I want to work from 1850 back for information on t

18. [OSTFRIESEN-L] Profiles [0.978038]
Greetings to all: I have a question and a suggestion. Would it be possible to get a profile of the individuals who post to this list on a regular basis, and who offer help and advice to others? Of course this would be voluntary, not manditory. This profile could then be entered in the address book under properties in the description area for persons with an e-mail address. I do this now based on the postings that I read on this, and other mailing lists. I would like to see some feedback on this subject

21. AW: [OSTFRIESEN-L] Langensalza [0.978038]
Moin John The "battle" of Langensalza was fought on June 27 1866. It was actually not more than a major combat between Prussian forces under General von Flies an the Hanovarian forces under King George. The Prussian war plan aimed at separating the North German Allies of the Austrian from the South German and Austrian main forces which were deployed in Bavaria and Boehmen (today Tschechia). King George tried to break with his army through the Prussian line to join the allied armies in Southern Germany. Gene

> It's been so quiet this weekend, everyone must have gone out of town! > Is anyone out there? Hi Lin, I've been wondering myself. All out partying I suppose. Maybe you (or someone, Russ?) could help me interpret something from an OSB listing. In A.O., family #2542, Johann Friedreich M. married who? I don't understand the (1821: Natje Cath. Claa_en Brahm) entry and how it relates to the Johanna Christine Cla_en de Braam part of the entry. Any ideas? Are these referring to the same person? Does she/ d

Moin all! Have to say again, that this list is really a lovely place in the Internet - so many people who are willing to help in so many aspects! Referring to the rock candy, that Al mentioned, they're still an important ingredient for Ostfriesentee. They've to be in the cup at first, so that you can hear it crackle when the hot tea is poured over it. The stick is somewhat unusual, normally you just have these sugar crystals.
