LENERTZ Family - Luxembourg / Australia
My great grandfather, Peter Lenertz (1850 - 1912) was the eldest son of Peter Lenertz and Elisabeth Sadeler of BECH, Luxembourg.
His brothers and sisters were Maria, Michel, Angela, Anna, & Johann.
His father's parents were Peter Lenertz and Maria Hoffman.
His mother's parents were Peter Sadeler and Anna Maria Huss.
Towns of Zittig and Eschweiler are mentioned.
Peter Lenertz left home in 1871 and went to Minnesota with a cousin Johan Sadeler. He eventually arrived in Australia in 1876 and married widow Bridget McGarry in 1886.
Other family names mentioned are Kuchens (Luxembourg) and Tisserand (France).
I would love to hear from anyone with connections to any of these families.
