Sheraton Suites Hotel
422 Delaware Avenue
Wilmington, Delaware 19801 USA

Dear Members of the Bollschweiler Family,

We are happy to announce the 4th International Bollschweiler Family Reunion to be held this coming July at the Sheraton Suites Hotel in Wilmington, Delaware, USA.

The 4th Reunion is hosted this year by Brian and Rocky Bushweller of Dover, Delaware, USA. Brian is a direct descendant of Georg Bollschweiler whom Hanno Trurnit traced all the way back to Gersbach, Germany in 1638.

Previous Reunions have been very successful and rewarding, giving attendees the opportunity not only to learn a great deal about the Bollschweiler family but also to get to know many relatives from many states and countries.

The Reunion begins with dinner at the hotel on Thursday evening, July 17 and concludes with breakfast at the hotel on Sunday morning, July 20.

Reunion highlights include:

  • a lunch time discussion of Bollschweiler family history led by Hanno Trurnit, the family historian, and his wife Brigitte (Bollschweiler.)

  • an evening viewing and discussion of the 2006 Reunion video prepared by Andreas Lieven and his wife Alice (Bollschweiler) Bauert.

  • many opportunities to learn about the Bollschweiler family and to talk with and get to know all the Attendees.

  • ample opportunity to examine and review Hanno’s impressive family tree and genealogical documents.

  • a visit to Independence National Historical Park, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, one of the most historic places in America, where the 13 colonies that ultimately became the United States declared their independence from Great Britain.

  • a visit to Winterthur, in Wilmington, Delaware, a great American country estate named after Winterthur, Switzerland, home of Winterthur Delaware’s original owner.

We hope to see you in Wilmington in July!
