Depenbusch Origins

We will post ancestral photos and welcome any files you have to share. Baptismal records, Marriage certificates, pictures, census accounts and ships manifests have been kept or compiled as a work-in-progress over the years to make this possible. Thanks are due the many keepers of the history of our related families: BOLZ, DEPENBUSCH, DICK, JACOBS, LAMPE, SCHINSTOCK, & TRAFFAS.
