Hi,
So many of you have got a start on this already.
"How does one Reintroduce oneself?"
Well, I'm Bob Call and my Calls were KALL from Kallstadt, Pfalz Bayern.
They came over in 1836 and settled near Pittsburgh.
Ludwig Tobias Kall was seven at the time and was a bit too quick to be
Americanized to suit his Daddy.
(Go figure - his parents were married five months before he was born, didn't
Daddy never hear like father like son?)
Well, to make a long story short, he eloped with an underage Miss. Snuck
across a state line and got married.
He father was even madder, aint no daughter of mine marrying no German!!
He had it annulled.
Well, two years pass and she is of legal age, so they get married again.
He tries to placate her father by changing the name to Call and raising the
kids Methodist. All that did was rile his own daddy who left him a measly $1
in his will and refused to spell his name CALL even then, 30 years later.
Bob
