<DIV><FONT face=Arial>I rode the Wheatland Ferry this evening on my return from
visiting the Sacred Heart Cemetery in Gervais and the St. Louis Cemetery in St.
Louis.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Has anyone done research amongst the Catholic Records of
Sacred Heart or St. Louis? My ancestors emigrated from Pankota, Hungary
(Germans) and I located a goodly group of them in the two cemeteries
today. I took 68 photos and once I process the clues from the tombstones
I'm wondering what resource next might provide some clues. Some of these
German relatives seem to have avoided the census takers so I need to find some
other records.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>The most mysterious of the bunch are the Plennert/Plennart
relatives. Anton Plennart (4 Jul 1876-27 Jan 1953), Jacob I Plennart
(1902-1975), Ada Plenert (1852-1930) & Frances Plenert (1860-1915).
Even tho the spellings are different I strongly suspect they are relatives to my
direct ancestor, Eva Plennert.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial>Would especially enjoy sharing info with ANYONE
researching ANY relatives from the <A
href="http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~romban/map/xymap.html">Banat region
</A>(Arad County, Hungary) where Pankota & Ujpanat are cities my ancestors
emigrated from. Quite a group of emigrants came to Oregon about
1902-1910. Many of them are inter-related.</FONT></DIV>

Matney like any other names has a lot of milestones but I noticed the
<BR>>> Matheny seem to be more well known over all eg Walt Davis's
