Euerbach, Germany: ancestral home

We visited Herbert and Regina Weigand who are related to Kevin,Dennis whose grandmother's father Johann came to USA with their great grandfather, Franz who got homesick snd returned. There were actually 5 brothers. Herman and wife Gisela are descended from a sister. Herbert's 2daughters Christine single and Katia with husband Martin, and 3 children David, Sophia, and Samuel were there as well. We were entertained royally: we were taken for a tour by several family members and the mayor, Regina's brother!  Then, a feast was prepared by Regina and family.  We had a blast and were honored to be with them!  We visited the church where Johann was baptized. The family tree was updated.
