i am the grandaughter of charles j uderman. i know little family history and would like to learn more,find some family and maybe pictures. i know my great-grandfather john uderman was from austria around 1880.his children were john,george,charlie and jeannie(who was called aunt honey) i understand they wound up in allegheny pa or pitt pa.my grandfather(pop-pop to me) was a merchant marine and told me he was around the world twice and searched for udermans.he was probably looking to find what i am now.a link or knowledge of our extremley uncommon surmane,where they came from,what they were like and what they thought.what they went through to give us decendants a better life. my father is john c. uderman sr. son of charles and eneas uderman(maiden name leahey,feel free to give info)an only child who has lost track of our few relatives in pitt pa. i would like to hear from anyone who can help with a fam tree. also i would like to see any old family photos and keep ancesters memories alive. i believe my grandfather told me the name means something about the water,fishing maybe. from fisher-man to steel workers? i know they had a hard young life. i know of and have met in pitt pa an ursula, a toni and butch who had boys timmy troy and terry,also a p.j. thier grandparents should be george and mayme uderman. for all tied in family,charlie udermans grandaughter from nj with love and hope i also found record of a 1748 uderman christening .evangelich,bochum,westfalen,preussen,if anyone knows what there is

i truly know that the past is our future,if we take all of past knowledge and hardships and learn what it took on down the line for us to be here today.we need need to know and respect.
