I am most grateful to the members of the list and the GBHS for the rich
body of shared work that you have done on the Berman Bohemian Heritage.
I have joined the list in pursuit of reserach I am doing on the
following thjree names: Vogel, Flor and Piemeisel. They came to Brwon
County, Minnesota, USA in the 1850s from the village of Bernstein in
Waier Parish, Bischofteinitz.

I am the great-great grandson of Simon and Barbara (Piemeisel) Vogel
who came to Brown County in 1855, 1856 or 1857 (dependiing upon source)
. I grew up in New Ulm, Minnesota and now live in St. Paul, Minnesota.
I have already learned a great deal from the pathbreaking work of Robert
Paulson and Ken Meter, as well as the wonderful GBHS website and
associated resources. I look forward to joining the cnoversation on
this list.
