dear fiona,
in poland near posan,is the small village of the iwan family homestead,we went there.there lived the complete family.brothers sisters etc.the two brothers were blaksmiths
they ran the shop together.untill the time of some items came back to them,damaged.no one knew which brother did the
work.so to compromise,one brother,put the second "n" on thier name.so now the german family spells the name "Iwann"
we saw the blacksmith shop and brought back some horseshoes.
now in the homestead ,lives a lady named "schultz".i will do my best to get a cd made of our trip to the homestead,now it is on the vcr tape.no one dropped the inski off the iwan name.we still have family in erlangen,
and wangen.i am in touch with them often.i want to send you an updated pictuer of us.would you please send me your address?
love and hugs
deloris and john
