Our Geuder-Geuter-Geuther Family Circle

Welcome to the Geuder/Geuter/Geuther family circle! Our genealogy group is the first concerted effort to research the history and ancestry of our uncommon family name. We are a non-profit organisation, founded in 2005 in Germany, with members in Germany, Netherlands, England, New Zealand, and the United States. We invite all Geuder-Geuter-Geuther descendants to explore with us our roots and history.

OUR FIRST REUNION IN AMERICA

September 8.-9. 2012 in Frankfort/Mokena, Illinois

On September 8th we will meet from 1pm to 5pm at the Mokena Immanuel ev.Lutheran Church, www.immanuelmokena.org, followed by a catered dinner. The next morning, we will visit the Frankfort neighborhood for a historical tour of our first Geuther settlers and end with a lunch in Frankfort.

All Geuder, Geuter and Geuther families and relatives are invited to participate. Please confirm with me (gabygeuther@yahoo.com) if you are coming, so we can order dinner accordingly. You can come for 1 day or for both; there is no cost other than the dinner. Transportation and hotel stay are on your own. Let me know if you need any help with finding a hotel for the one night. The Hampton Inn in Tinley Park, Hilten Garden Inn inTinley Park are good, or the less expensive Super 8 in Mokena.
