Chuck,
At this time I don't have either of those families in my database
yet........if you visit my webpage, you can see what information I have. I
do update it frequently as I receive new information so for the Belgian
side of my family it is up-to-date. I must caution you though that there
are about 5700 people in this data base so there are a couple of pages that
do take a couple of minutes to load (depends on your connection). I do
know that my grandmother was writing to family in Wisconsin and possibly
Illinois, but as yet, my cousin an I haven't been able to find the letters
she received from them. Please let me know if you happen to come across
anything that may be helpful.

Hope to hear from you,

Allan
