Has anyone taken this Zavering/Sovereign surname back into Germany yet? Does anyone reading this have additions or corrections to the information listed above. If so, please contact me at rjseaver@cox.net. I noted that I have a mix of location names for what is now Ontario - my database is not yet as consistent as I want it to be!

This Surname Saturday post completes my great-great-grandparents ancestral lines. Next week I'll start on the third-great-grandmother lines.
