: Hello,
: I am Wayne Gertz a retired US Navy Captain from North Carolina.
: In regard to Ruediger's posting,I am not sure where Torun is but my known family tree may originate from that area. My Grandfather, who was German, immigrated to America from an area which the family calls Russia-Poland (possibly about 120km or so from Warsaw). His name was Louis and he had two brothers, Henry and Emil who also immigrated. (Louis had been conscripted into the Russian Army prior to immigrating.) Their father (my great-grandfather) was Jacob. I have found in my searches on the internet a Jacob Gertz who was born about 1836 in Alexanderwohl, Molotchna, Russia and died in Germany but cannot be sure he is the Jacob Gertz in my family though the age and locality suggest a match. This "Jacob" was born to Peter Goertz. Jacob's siblings all retained the Goertz spelling in this family tree.
: I welcome any any comments.
: Best regards,
