Hi all, looking for information on the DOLLINGER and KUGLER families. My parents are Bud and Alice Kugler of Kersey. I've traced Moms' family back to Germany in the 1700's; but only on her grandmothers side. Her grandfathers side stopped with her grandfather Jacob Dollinger.

I'm in the process of obtaining parish records and such; but any information from you folks would be greatly appreciated.
