I'm from Georgia/Alabama... I know most of my ancestors lived in Alabama during the 1900's... Otis German lived in Dadeville, Alabama (Tallapoosa County) which was my great grandfather... his son my grandfather was Joe R. German born 1928. He lived in Dothan Alabama in 1980s. So if anyone has information about or knows that you are kin to these German's. It would be good to get a response.
