This web site is dedicated to my Uncles, Fr. Augustine Nenzel, O.S.B. and Fr. James Gray, O.S.B. We owe a great deal to my Aunt, Sister Ambrose Nenzel, O.S.U. who started the Nenzel Family Tree. Many hours of work have been put into the research and documentation of these ancestors. I hope you will benefit from the information presented here.

My wife RoseMarie and I have been working on the family tree for the past several years and it has grown considerably. We have been to Germany 7 times in this time and have done much research into our roots. We have met many of our distant relatives and each time we go the number grows. We have collected many pictures and stories which I have put on the computer in the Legacy Family Tree program. We have had much help from Fr. Neal Nollette, my cousin and are grateful for his input and assistance. I decided that the internet might facilitate the gathering of further information and this is the result. Hopefully I will see some results for my efforts and this site and the Family Tree will continue to grow.
