My mother was an Emch. Her Grandfather, Nicholas, came from Switzerland in 1845 with his mother, Isabel (or Elizabeth), and five brothers. I am interested in any information and pictures of brothers and their families after arriving in the US and any information about the family still in Switzerland. Also, how far back have you traced the Emch's? Thanks for your help. I too am willing to share information that I have. FYI, my mother (Alta Emch Bockbrader) was born on the farm where this Emch family first purchased property on what is now known as Rt. 20 about 2 miles west of Woodville. My cousins still own this property. I'm looking forward to hearing from you. Carol Manbeck
