My Richert Family

I am in the process of typing out the family book and putting it online, as I like the way it was done compared to the way my pages are done now. I still will not be putting in anyone who is still alive. I will keep the numbering system that Mary Hitchens used in the book so that as I receive information on someone who has died I can then add there information without having to re-do the whole thing. I will also include the table of contents and I'll add the link as the pages are done. NOTE: This is taking longer than I thought it would. With our move to Kentucky at the end of 2000 I hadn't had time since then to get back into typing out the pages of the book. I'm hoping that within the next few weeks I will be able to start back on it. To view the Richert book click here. Pictures My Richert family book; History and Recollections Jacob Richert 1814-1901; was done in 1984 by a wonderful woman named Mary Hitchens. My Richert family came from Imbshiem, France. Which was German occupied on several occasions. My grandmother spoke German. As my Dad put it, when she would get mad she would get on them in German. I wish I had had the opportunity to have gotten to know her better. I was born in Corydon, IN while she lived in New Albany, IN. Then when I was 6 years old we moved to Florida. I didn't see her too much after that. But when I received the Richert book in the mail I was thrilled to death to have it so I sat down and read it from cover to cover. When I read about how close the family was I realized how much I missed by living so far away from her. Richert Surnames updated 26 Sept 2002
