The Fahrig Family



From what I hear, the Fahrig family originally came from Kleinerin, Hackstaat, Germany. In 1881 they left from Germany for New York City. From New York City, I understand they took a train to somewhere in Ontario, then a boat and finally made their way up the Nippissing Trail via an Oxen cart to Wattenwyl, Lount Township, Parry Sound, Ontario.

Below I have some pictures and more information at page bottom. To go to the Genealogy Tabs click here.
