Rhonda,
I read your message... and I must say, I don't know any of the people you spoke of, but I wonder if we are related. Our name is spelled differently, but I know from a cousin in Denmark that we are related to the "Hetebrugge" spelling as well. When my grandfather lived in Germany, the name was spelled "Hetebrug" with an "umlaut" over the "u". Aa few generations before him there were twin brothers who spelled their names differently - one, "hetebrug" and the other "hetebrugge". That was in the 1700's.
