Hello, I am a journalist and writer, in southern Brazil, and recently made ??contact with you to learn more about the family von Larisch.
I write in Portuguese and use a translator so we can communicate better. I write in French, German and Spanish, but English, unfortunately.
Ten years researching German immigrants, their descendants and they founded towns in southern Brazil.
I’ve been in Germany for research, where I was with relatives, especially in the Hunsrück and Saarland, where they live, respectively, relatives of my father and my mother. My mother has close relatives in Germany and a branch of the family has its origins in Luxembourg.
Search also on the family von Hohendorff, ancestors of my wife Fernanda Scherer. I have a lot herd in Brazil and Germany. But on the ancestral mother of the von Hohendorff named Luise von Larisch, unfortunately we do not have material, unless their dates of birth and death.
We do not know anything about the ancestry von Larisch. Recently got material on von Frankenberg (family of the immigrant grandmother von Hohendorff) and the von der Groeben. But von Larisch about the story is still unknown.
What we would like, it was just names of ancestors with their dates of birth and death, so we could complete our family tree.
Can I submit material, and historical pictures, with names and dates, our family here in southern Brazil. So that you know a little history here.
Thank you for your attention
Regards,
Felipe Kuhn Braun.
