The two major lines in this genealogy are those of Dale L. Lange, the originator of this work. His father’s side is Lange; his mother’s side is Pierce. There are, however, many more names in this compilation: Adams, Arndt, Brewer, Bonebright, Bramer, Erdmann, Lakin, McKowan, Moore, Olsen, Stein, Wobermin, Zech, and of course others. Note that the Lange family originates in German-speaking Europe, in Posen, West Prussia, currently in Poland. The Pierce family
begins in the United States with Michael Pierce about 1645. Michael’s roots are
in England, but with family that may have originated in France, depending on
which story is the most credible. Since this work is still an on-going project,
there is still much to learn. Any additions or subtractions, with
documentation, are willingly received.
