From 1760 in the two tiny towns of Allmenhausen & Rockensussra, Germany, until they emmigrated to the United States in 1847-48, settled in southern Michigan, spread north to Boyne City, Alpena & Bois Blanc Island off the shore of Cheboygan around 1905 . . . that's the basic path the HARTLEBs took. Now we're spread all over the place: Iowa, Seattle, still Boyne City & Alpena, but also in Florida and California.
This page, as it grows, will feature history, photographs, family trees, anecdotes, and links to related websites -- both those directly related to HARTLEB & HARTLEP families, and sites that help YOU search the web for information about genealogy, rare books, Michigan links, German links, searchable databases, old church records -- the list will, essentially, be endless (just like genealogy).
My email address is below, for anyone who'd like to drop me a line. Sincerely, Eric C. Hartlep.
