http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alsace-Lorraine La Nell Subject: [LegacyUG] Alsace-Lorrane Depending on the census, the relative came from France and Germany. One, Phillip Bach was b abt 1790 and his daughter, Catherine b abt 1823. Know where it is but not sure when it was considered French or German. Any help would be most appreciated---they both ended up in Louisa County, Iowa.
