> Hello:
> I have a church record for a ancestor that came from Septfontaines
Luxembourg. In the record it mentions his father and mother as being from
Wolehringer (at least that is how I think it is spelled). The problem I'm
having is there is not a village or town even close to this spelling. I was
wondering if someone (who has done extensive research in Luxembourg) might
be able to help me out.
