John Gerrath's Lennartz / Linnartz Family Line For All to See!

John Gerrath's
Lennartz Family Line

This is yet another family line from the old land of Prussia (Rhineland) in what is now Western Germany near the Dutch border. The Lennartz name is also another surname that flits about in its spelling like a butterfly in a stiff breeze. Linnartz, Lehnartz, Leonards and other variants are all acceptable substitutes, so be careful before you dismiss any connection to this line. At this juncture the family is entirely European, except for the large Geraths contingent. Those living in Koln (Cologne) or the region just west of the city will recognize such towns as Kerpen, Frechen, Grefrath and other smaller villages of the area in the listings.
If you are living in this region, or suspect a connection to these places, give us a shout, you wouldn't believe how much info we have!!
Thanks go out to cousin Christian Schmitz for helping with some of the sections!
