I am writing my family story in English with a proposed title of "Friedrich Kinder"

But, my Bavarian relatives tell me that my German grammar is incorrect.

They suggest "Kinder Friedrich"

The prime readers would be western Canadians.

I would appreciate comments on this.

I would tend to agree.  In German, you would also say - die Familie Friedrich - instead of - die Friedrich Familie.  It has to do with the fact that Friedrich is the adjective of the noun Kinder.

German grammar is very complicated - declining nouns and conjugating verbs, sentence structure with verbs at the end - a total nightmare.  English is easy by comparison (except for the spelling anomalies)!

I just want to make a public thankyou to Rose Ingram who has been such a wonderful help to me in breaking down a 30 year old brick wall on my Russian poland heritage. Rose is also going through some tough medical issues just now, so I'm sure she would appreciate hearing from her friends. 



? THANK YOU ROSE !

Well, a little confusing; "Friedrich" and "Kinder" being both last 
names.......

I relise that your last name is FRIEDRICH;  So the title could be " 
Friedrich's Kinder",

or since you may want to write it in English "Friedrichs Children".
