Joyce Kenney from is looking for JOHANN BRAENDLEIN since 17-Apr-2016 and left the following message: "Dear Mr/Mrs/Miss/Ms Brandlein,

I am researching my Braendlein/Brandlein ancestry and attempting to reach out to others with this rare surname to see if we might be related. My research has revealed there are 3 main clusters of Brandlein/Braendleins in the USA who can trace their ancestry back to the same town (Schweinfurt) in Germany. These 3 clusters were originally located in Washington, Indiana and California (the group from which I descend).

Because our ancestors emigrated around the mid-1800`s, it is vital to reach out to the oldest Brandleins in each of our groups to obtain names, dates, photos, and family stories to help piece together the bigger picture of our shared surname and prove how we are most likely related.

All information gathered will be kept private and confidential and not used for any other reason. Another Braendlein individual who is assisting me with this project will be putting the collected information in a private file on Ancestry. Com which is only accessible by invitation. This will enable other Brandlein/Braendlein descendants to view this information and
follow our progress.

PLEASE help by forwarding this message to your oldest Brandlein relative (s) or other family member who might be able/willing to assist us with this project.

Respectfully,
Joyce Kenney". To reply to Joyce Kenney click here.
