Subject: [OHCRAWFO] German surnames

Hi Al

You seem to have a lot information about the meaning
of German surnames - Could you tell me the meaning of
the following names for my husband's family or where
to find it? I also read somewhere that sometimes you
can tell what part of Germany the surnames originated
from parts of the names. I am hoping this info will
help me get started on my German ancestor hunt. Do you
know a good place to start that is in English?
Thanks Frances
