Hi
I am obviouly researching GSCHWIND, too. Indeed, lots of them originate in Switzerland (in particular the locations of Therwil and Metzerlen, but there are also GSCHWIND - as mine - having their roots in Germany.
It would be nice to have some more details (date & place of birth) of the people you are researching.
Kind regards from Switzerland. Daniel

Hi Daniel
Thank you for your reply. My Grandfather was Paul Gschwind, born Sept. 29 1897 & died Dec. 14 1972. I believe he was born in Basil Switzerland. He was married to Martha Engelskirch, and later to Paula Boswald. He had 4 children Barbara (with Martha) & Susan, Thomas & Andrew (with Paula). I believe my Grandfather's parents were Edmound & Katherina (nee Fischer). I know my grandfather had three sisters Anna, Emma, and Martha (or Marta?). They from what I understand stayed in Switzerland. My Grandfathers 2nd wife Paula was from Switzerland, possibly born in Basil or Birsfelden (?) She was born April 6th 1927 0R 1926. Her mother was Clara Boswald. clara had at least three children Paula, Theodor, and Andrew. Theodor I know was born in Switzerland he was married to a woman name Trudi (no children). I have a family picture as well with the names Paul & Clara Zumthor-Gschwind. Also some where in there I am related to a Walter and Cecile Morf Zumthor from Switzerland in either Basil or Zurich. I'll try to find out more dates, which is very difficult since I only have contact directly with Paula Boswald Gschwind Huisman. Hopefully something in there will ring a bell to someone.
