The IGI shows another group of Wendels, living in Löllbach, Rheinland, Germany

I would like to Publicly Thank
Manfred Daum in Germany,
and Kathy Enders, for including me,
in their supply of Information on the Wendel Family.
None of this is possible without Manfred's work.
Please acknowledge him if using any of this information
Would also like to Thank all that contribute info.,
Some. but not all, are listed below:
Miles Wendell, & Lorna & Dorothy Wendell,
Tobi and Tom Wendell, Terry Wendel,
Myrna Zahara, Tom Purpur, Martha Armbruster,
Lily Wendel, and others,
 for pics and family info,
Doug Hauser,
who sent a great Hauser history book to me,
Without this kind of input,
this Tree and info collected,
would not exist for all relatives to view.
I encourage you to contribute your family info today!
As you can see, no living person's info is publicly displayed,
nor is it given, or sold to any group outside the family.
You may use the info for your own family scrapbook etc.
But DO NOT distribute it to any other organization.
I encourage it's use in your own family,
especially the younger generation.

The Wendel Mystery has been solved, the last Wendel family
to leave Brigidau Galicia, ended up in Winnipeg Manitoba Canada
Thanks to Richard Schmidtke and Susan Bernhardt
who are now distant cousins, tied to my family tree.
One more piece in the puzzle solved.
Now I just need time to add their family info
to the Private Wendel pages.
