One of them is the one that Jens' post said the following about: "According to the phone directory, there are only Kreglers in 96185 Schnbrunn i. Steigerwald, not in the others. As many lutherans emigrated to the US from that area (Franconia) from the middle of the 18th century on, this would be quite realistic." Here is the German town locator information again: Schnbrunn (i Steigerwald) GKZ : 09 4 71 186 County : | | +---- Bamberg {BA} RegBez : | +------- Oberfranken Land : +--------- Bayern ZIP : 96185 Popul : 1739 Locat : 49d51m N 10d41m E Jens has made the suggestion that I was planning on making, about looking for the surname in the various towns called Schnbrunn. Here is another site you can go to for the German telephone directory: http://www.dastelefonbuch.de/ Put Kregler in the Name block, put Schnbrunn in the Ort (town) block, and click Finden. On the next screen, check the block for postal code 96185 for Schnbrunn i Steigerwald, and click on the block called In markierten Orten finden. The next page will show you the listings. There are four listings. Kregler Arthur Obere Schloleite 15 96185 Schnbrunn 09546 7 59 Kregler Georg Leitenweg 22 96185 Schnbrunn 09546 65 43 Kregler Hans Leitenweg 4 96185 Schnbrunn 09546 18 07 Kregler Michael Hohenrothweg 5 96185 Schnbrunn 09546 10 99 Some letters to your husband's distant cousins might find you some information and new friends. I have had very good luck with my past endeavors in contacting distant cousins in Germany for all four of my German grandparents. Good luck on your search. Joe in Texas
