Re: Banaters in Castor

Terry;
All the Banater families that we can document homesteading in Castor had a connection and lived for some period in Josefsdorf. We have copies of the Josefsdorf church books. We wrote a paper some years ago on this Banat settlement from Josefsdorf which was published in the Donauschwaebische Familienkundliche Forschungsblaetter. Pasted below is the Josef Frank family as we can so far reconstruct it.
The reference to Pommersheim rings true. Although they did not live in Josefsdorf and I have not been able to find them in the passenger ship records, it is certainly a Banat surname associated with the area around Neuarad.
