Mr. Heinrich Ternes wrote in his report in the Staats-Anzeiger Edition #11 that we were wrong in saying that families from Krasna are residing in Neu-Wuerttemberg. To that we have to say that we are correct. Porto Felix and Santa Angelo are districts known here as municipio, and the settlement regions in these districts where the most people from Krasna and Emmental reside are called Neu-Wuerttemberg and Santa Barbara in the state Rio Grando do Sul. Mr. Ternes may be referring to Neu-Wuerttemberg in the state Santa Katharina. No harm done!

Mr. Joseph Hobbacher Sr. from Sarata, Bessarabia once also corrected a mistake we had made and we were grateful to the old man for that. The readers have to be kept current with information.

When the opportunity arises, I will then report about the locations of our Germans from Bessarabia.

With the best greetings,
Joseph Foeth
