New data from Dr. Werner Baumann, a Swiss historian and expert on Hirzel farm families (many of whom were Anabaptists) are traced in this book with as many as eight generations of descendants. The main emphasis is on the Landis family, but there are many other references to related families: Bowman, Brenneman, Bruppacher, Buckwalter, Derstine, Freed, Hackman, Halteman, Moyer, Oberholtzer, Pfister, Stauffer, and Strickler.
