It depends on which direction you wish to take. Are you searching for
the descendants or ancestors of this fellow. Sehlen today is Sehlen
(Gem�nden (Wohra)) (Region Waldeck-Frankenberg) north of Marburg.
Rosenthal is nearby. So thiis would seem to be the place of origin.
The hessen lists may be of more specific help.

Thank you for your assistance, Fred. I looked on the Rootsweb lists, and Cyndi's list, but didn't find a hessen list. I'll google that, as it would be the most direct way to find out what resources are available for that area. Thanks, Sandy
