  "There's fairly solid evidence that Michael (my American patriarch) was born in Grunstad, Hess and not in the Steffisburg area -- although there were ongoing persecutions and troubles which caused lots of relocations and migration through Germany in order to, eventually, seek the New World." (Dean Franklin Coffman Jr.)   There is fairly solid evidence that the three Jacobs below came from the Steffisburg area of present day Switzerland. (ddk)

Comments:

Based on Dean Franklin Coffman Jr.'s statement about "Michael (my American patriarch) was born in a Grunstad, Hess and not in the Steffisburg area" I have charted the European connections as shown above. This does remove the dilemma of both groups claiming the same common ancestors, but users should proceed with caution when quoting this chart. It is still only a working hypothesis and more information may bring about more revisions. (ddk)
