While Payton Bass's Girl Scout troop was working
on their Family Heritage Fun Patch in 2023, her troop
leader encouraged parents to also work with the Scouts at home to
explore family history. Payton and her fellow Scouts found these unique
family history research guides:

Sad story about
Peter
Fechter, from East Berlin, one of the first persons killed at the Berlin
Wall, in 1962.
My part of the Fechter family tree came from Ellenbach, Bavaria.
It is near Hersbruck, which is north of Nürnberg, Germany (people spell it as
Nuremberg in the USA). Click
here for a map of the Ellenbach and Hersbruck areas. Files are big so it may
take a minute or two to download. Seal of the city of Hersbruck
