My search concerns the year or period:late 1600's to early 1700's in the Palatinate. I am searching for a Peter van Metz who had a son named Ludwig (Lodowick) Metz who was born in 1705 near Metz. Ludwig emigrated to America in 1726. He was a Swiss Mennonite and church records have been difficult for me to locate.
So far I have conducted research in a number of databases including Mennonite databases in Pennsylvania USA, along with Swiss online archives, and a truly large number of books. I located two possible Peter Metz's here in https://forum.ahnenforschung.net/showthread.php? t=38954 however I do not know how to follow those for additional information.
Might any of you be able to assist me with suggestions, links, and/or references providing guidance on how I could continue my research on my Swiss-German family?
Thank you in advance, and I apologize for posting in English but my German is not so good for writing.
