Dominik - I would also like to correspond with you. Cathie and I share a common ggg-grandfather - Francis Solander. My branch of the family changed the name spelling about 100 years ago. I am interested in knowing about the Saarland Solander; I believe that our family came from Germany, but I haven't been able to prove it yet. It appears that the father of Francis was Christian Solander; I would be excited if you can find any evidence of a Christian Solander who was born around 1740 or 1750.
