The Bull’s Site Map

The website follows the Benitz family, primarily those with ancestors who emigrated from Endingen, Baden (Germany), during the period 1830-1860.  And amongst these, the major focus is upon the ancestors, family, and descendants of Wilhelm Bönitz (1815-1876) and Josefa Kolmerer (1830-1912) — William & Josephine Benitz.  The website is therefore structured around them and their family.
