Remarks:
It is easy to copy informations I've registered in the data program
Family Tree Maker. What's time-consuming is that I have to first copy these
information into the Word program, then copy from the Word Program into my
Internet Message Reader. What seems to be perfect pedigrees in the Word
program, are reproduced in a confusing way in my Message Reader. thus I
have to try make readable pedigrees out of the mess. The next obstacle is
the translation. I shall try to make the pedigrees easy to understand. If i
don't succeed, don't hesitate to ask questions if it's something you don't
understand. And, perhaps more important. if you are being in doubt whether
the information I send you are facts, send med a note.
The Weckhorst pedigree will continue with the next generation,
generation No. 8 and their descendants. I'l split this generation in four
parts: 3a: Jens Arbo Weckhorst, 3 b: Christian Emil Weckhorst, 3c: Johanne
Antonette Weckhorst and, finally: 3c. Gustav Adolph Frederik Weckhorst. The
reason why Gustav Adolph Frederik Weckhorst not is handled as the first
part, is because I have so many information which I'll have to try to sort
out before I can publish the result. I also reckon that this part, which is
the US line, will be the part most discussed. I can promisse you some
surprises! -- signed Henry Weckhorst
