Charles,
Is that why "Charles
SEITLER" appears everywhere? I guess having three of them in a row (in pretty much the same geographic region) will do that!
As far as I know, our branches aren't connected--at least, not on this side of the Atlantic. However, my (S/Z)EITLER forefathers arrived in
Baltimore and apparently stayed there for about a century. I'd be happy to share what I have, though I'm not sure whether or not it would help.
