[Ger-Poland-Volhynia] Re: Weich Family in Zhitomir

[Swede Severson]

Hello Carol,

I have heard there were many people from the Ukraine - Volhynia -Prussia etc
areas who fled to Brazil & other areas when the Russians etc took over all
that country back in the late 1890's & early 1900's, I'm not sure.

There is a "hard rocker" in Brazil that I am trying to make contact with.
Andreas Kisser, born in 1968, has got to be a distant cousin of my wife
Marilyn Kisser.  Her grgr grandfather was an Andreas Kisser, born in the
early 1800's, I believe in or around Zhitomir.  He may have been even
farther back in her connections.  I'm sure the "hard rocker, heavy metalist"
is a descendant of the Andreas from the early 1800's.

I sure would like to find any more with the name KISSER in South America etc

Thank you,.

Swede & Marilyn Severson
