Subject: [GERMANNA] FIRST GERMANNA GROUP - FAMILY NAME OF RICHTER now RECTOR Americanized
Date: Mon, 5 Feb 2001 09:30:09 -0800


Attention Germanna Network: I enjoy reading about all the families of Germanna. Is anyone currently researching or has researched the RICHTER's from Nassau-Siegen, First Germanna Group. I have many names but would love to know more about the experiences for the First and Second Groups to the new Virginia territory. Would also like to find other RICHTER
and RECTORS descended from the original Germanna families. Are there any thesis, stories, books, articles you might recommend??? I love History and am anxious to know about our ancestors experiences in this new land. I did obtain a timeline which tells something of the milestones in our nation and Virginia history for that time but would like more Germann specific. (Below, still in draft process, dates may be off and am trying to vaidate pedigree, followed FamilySearch,)
