Hi Denny!

I am an UNFRED (minus the "i"

out here in Oregon and am trying to find some connections to the UNFRIED family, or at least how we are related. I am sure that we are somehow. I am a descendent of Friedrich Unfred who came over from Baden Wurrtenburg. He was an immigrant and we are descendants of his. There are many Unfred's that I have found who are concentrated in Texas, Kansas, Colorado, and Oregon.
I am just curious as to how where the name change happened and how I may be connected with many of you out east! I am sure that there is a direct connection as it is a quite unique last name. Very excited to see such a great site made up like this. Thank you for all of your great hard work. I am on facebook as well, as Kristina Unfred. You are welcome to befriend me if you would like! Take care and great to know of you and all of the Unfried families that are out there! I used to believe there was only my little family of Unfreds!!! Kudos and blessings to you!

Hi Denny,

I just came a cross your tear site and went through each picture and read each discription. Thank you, I've picked up a few ideas. Job well done. I can only hope I can find most the materials here and do half the job you did. I've started my 1st tear and I'm ready for the decking on the frame. What gauge alum. skin did you use?

Where are you to on your 2nd tear? I'd love to see pics.

Hello Dennis, My great, great grandfather, Petrus Mathias Unfried and his family came to Texas around 1870 from Reil, Germany, a small village on the Mosel river. His son Otto William Unfried settled in Ft Worth where my dad and our family grew up. The rest of this branch stayed in Limestone county Texas. Not sure how we might be connected by I thought I would send this info. Just ran across your web site today and was very impressed with what you created.

I am leah the daughter of mark and linda unfried! Was searching family history and came across your site. Would be great to hear your family history and how we are related. My opa name is Gerhard Waldenman? Unfried and my nana name is Doloris? Unfried. They came to australia around 1952/1955 some where around there.
Can you email me any info about your family would love to get a full family history.
Thanks and great talking to you Denny!

Denny; I have appreciated your work on the family for some time. My sister-in-law, Virginia Douglas, gave you some family info some years ago. She's not doing well now. I recently made some DVDs of my mother's voice (Lillian Romig Douglas) telling about our heritage. I put a lot of pictures that I dug up to show what she was talking about. I borrowed the one you have in Leavenworth showing the Romigs with Jacob Sr.in front of the house. My mother had some great stories about that place.
I would like a password if I may since I may find some more info as I am trying to lock down some of our heritage. I remember visiting Marvin in Temple City with the chickens when I was about 10 yrs. old(85 now). We lived in Alhambra then. We would go there when they were playing their instruments (1932). We also have gone to the quartet competition here in Sacramento to hear RSVP. Now they have stopped that competition here. Keep up the good work. Thankyou especially for the hours after 11:30 PM.
