My grandfathers brothers came from Germany and walked and hitched rides to Cincinnati, OH. They then sent for my grandfather. All of my grandparents and my husbands grandparents are from Germany. I have never been there but would love to go. I don't speak a work of German.

My great...grandfather came to Texas in the 1850's from Hesse -- my greataunts spoke German with their friends quite a few generations later -- I remember being awed by their phone conversations in Shiner, TX, in the late 1950's
