I hardly know where to start. I have an envelope of "stuff" I've collected through the years. I must warn you that I'm not experienced in using message boards, etc. I begin with the Aebi connection as you requested. My ggfather was Godfrey Aebi, b.1864, d.1921. My ggmother was Mary Umport Aebi, b.1861 in Berne, Switzerland, d. 1930. It's my understanding they are both buried at Alliance Cemetery, as are a lot of my relatives. They were married in 1881 and came to U.S. soon after. I have a note that states Mary had one sister & two brothers in Switzerland, 14 gchildren & 7 children at the time of her death. Three children died in infancy. (I don't remember where I found this info). Godfrey & Mary's children were:
1. Pearl Aebi Schenk, married to Edward, sons: Albert E. and Clarence A. She died 2/29/1964.
2. Alice Schmucker, married to Amos.
3. Edith Nile, married to Everett Earl Nile. She was b.1/18/1900, d.12/14/1975. Everett was b.8/29/1887, d.10/19/1974
4. Laura Bretzer
5. Charles Frank Aebi (my gfather), married Elizabeth Brunie on 10/1/1910. He was b.9/16/1886, d.12/25/1968. Gmother was b.1/23/89, d.5/17/66. They had 3 children, Charles Ray Aebi (my father), Esther May Aebi Burky, and Florence May who died at 4 mos. old.
6. John Aebi
7. Homer Aebi, b.4/17/1894, d.5/?/1969
As you can see, I don't have info on all of them, but it's a start.
You mentioned reunions - I can remember as a small child going to reunions where there were lots of people. If those were Brunie reunions, I may be in a photo. I have somewhere a photo of one of the reunions -- I looked about 3 or 4. Let me know what else you may need re: the Aebi's -- I may have something.
