Each family name in the Legend is linked to that family's page. There are also some links to more detailed maps. Below the map, I've set out some mileages to given you an idea how far our people were from the Rhine or from the villages our other ancestors came from. The scale of the map is such that it appears to be a long way between some places, but you may be surprised to read how close together they are.
