J. Henrich Doell Family

I have included only 3 generations but I have information on previous generations as while as future generations.  I also have further information on most of the individuals mentioned.  I have tried to make the information as correct as possible.  Some of my material has been documented and some of it has been generously offered to me by other individuals doing research on these families. I look forward to any corrections or additions that anyone might wish to make.
