Neuffer Family Book

Joh Valentin Neyffer (1572-1610)

I received a copy of an old book that belonged to my Great Grandfather and Grandmother, Bill and Mary Andra. My Uncle Larry had the book and was looking to have it translated. I knew there were some German speakers I knew in the area and was put in contact with David Badger of Rupert. He does these types of projects, this one tested him. He completed it and did a great job.

This is a copy of a book that was originally published in 1735. We knew it was believed to be related to my Great Great Grandmother’s family, Regina Frederike Nuffer Wanner. Our family has been linked to these individuals. I have some reservations as to accuracy of those connections.

Below is the pdf with all the pages of the book in black/white. David Badger’s translation, in pdf, includes some pages in color. I attach some of the language and some of the photos below.
