Hi Bonnie,

Sorry this post is sooo late....just a little backed up on reading all the
incoming e-mail.

I was wondering if you have any information on the descendants of the
Stalder's?

One of my Grandmother's....Mary Stauter / Stallter / Salter may have been
born in Indiana or Ohio in abt 1850 to a John & Mary etc..... This is the
first time that I have seen the name Stalder...and it struck me that the D's
and T's could be interchanged if the person had an accent.

Would appreciate your thoughts on this....TTYS...Karla
