Recently a cousin sent me information she had found several years ago in what I think is the Warfel Family History book. Can anyone with the book tell me more about this connection? I am also interested in where the author found the information and is it reliable. This could help resolve an ancestor conflect in our family. Thank you so very much for you assistance.
