Long, Long Ago, In a Galaxy Far, Far Away....

There was a character called Grand Moff Tarkin.
To the Best of our Knowledge and Belief,
We Are Not Descended From Him. :-)

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

We are, however, descended from Johann Georg Moff, Jr., born circa September 4, 1793
in the very small town of Oberschwarzach, near Neckargem�nd, Baden-W�rttemberg, Germany.
He and his family came to the United States on the ship "Isaac Bell" in July, 1851.
