How I'm Related To Johann Georg Ribble (Updated 06 Jun 2010)
Johann Georg Ribble (Anna Eva ?Sebring): 6th Great grandparents of Kelly, 5th for Jim
Notes: German surnames ending with "in" are often a feminine suffix of original surname (i.e.: Reibel=Reibelin). 'X', 'O' & other symbols may actually be a person's "mark" (used when a person could not sign their name do to illiteracy or illness). Also, accuracy of spelling is a MODERN issue. Don't fuss if Uncle Job's last name is spelled differently than Grandpa William or if you find Grandpa William's name was spelled differently of separate occasions. This was most likely due to their error or the error in translation! If you find a new or different spelling embrace it. It may just open a few doors in your research!
