| Hello John,
No reason to be sorry I should have explained it better. Many of the Ament family went west during the great migration period. Say the late 1700's Some went to the Batschka and Banat and some to Hungary proper. Some of the Ament family went to Elec Hungary after going to the Banat. This is a large family in Hungary Like the one in the Batschka. They Came from Kuelheim. Which is just below Reicholzheim in Baden. Some went direct from the Spessart Forest area of Bayern, which is just to the North of Reichlozheim, Baden. It my opinion they are all related but hard to prove. Though it is obvious that most Ament's (Amend's)came from this area of Frankonia. Probably originating in or near Fulda. I have looked at your line before not sure there was a connection but it may be in the book that Joshi wrote on the Amend/Ament family. His main subject if I understand it right was the Ament family from Elec as that is his line. Perhaps you can post to the "Frankonia list" on rootsweb for a look up. They might be in there. Best regards Kurt | ||
